Is there any way to set or to zero the temperature on a 5 year old GE profile (double oven) SS23341OP range please?
The oven temperature bears no relationship to what is on the display.
Mine seems completely haywire. When the display reaches (say) 350 degrees, an oven temp gauge seems to be at around 300. Leaving the oven at the 350 setting for a time, the gauge sometimes stabilises at 425, sometimes it goes up to 500 degrees!!
I have already changed the thermostat and it didnt affect the problem at all. What else can I try please?
Or are there only two components to the system, the thermostat and the control panel behind the display? Does that contain all the sensors, chips etc?
Sorry, I don't have any specifics on your oven. But, about 14 years ago
we bought a Dacor built in oven. We always suspected control problems.
When I checked, there was indeed control problems. Set at 350, it would
over shoot and then undershoot 350. Calling Dacor was absolutely no
help. They just kept repeating the words on the script that industry
standard allows a 25 degree variation. Well this one was a little worse,
say maybe 30 or so. BTW, 25 degrees is ok for baking large mass things,
however for small things like cookies, etc. it means the difference
between undercooked and overcooked. We lived with it for 5 years. I
called Dacor again and they said they have a new controller unit (the
whole front panel) which holds the temperature much tighter. They
offered it for free, but the catch is, that I had to have it done by a
so called professional and pay them. So, it cost me $100 to get what
should have been there in the 1st place. With the new control panel, it
was significantly better, but not as good as I would have liked it. Now
there was a top to bottom swing of about 14 degrees. I now have a
Whirlpool in a different house and have never measured the temperature
because the baking results have been very good.
