Probably a bad sensor or switch


Ovens like cars today are full of electronics and chips.

We got good news yesterday on our two year old oven that we dumped a
bundle into and it still malfunctions.Â* We will get all new
electronics for just a $50 service charge.

The crappy oven that came with the house must have lasted over 25
years but now you are lucky to get 10 years out of one.


You can also get a service contract. I just got an offer from GE to
cover range, microwave and dishwasher for 5 years.Â* They want $1100 for
it.Â* No thanks, I'll take my chances.


We might consider on next purchase. I would take my chances on those
that cover everything. Like any insurance policy it is a profit to the
insurance company and a crap shoot with the purchaser.

The appliance people we deal with service what they sell but service
calls are expensive.
