Frequently Asked Questions
•Where exactly is the oven temperature sensor located in my Whirlpool oven?
The oven temperature sensor (RTD) is typically located at the top rear of the oven cavity. It's a small probe that extends into the oven interior. You'll usually find it secured with a screw or bracket.
•How do I know which replacement oven control board is compatible with my specific Whirlpool oven model?
The best way to ensure compatibility is to locate the model number of your oven. This is usually found on a sticker inside the oven door or on the side panel. Use this model number to search for compatible replacement oven control boards online from appliance parts retailers.
•What voltage should I expect to see on the line side of the oven terminal block when properly connected to a 240V circuit?
You should measure approximately 240V AC between the two hot wires (typically black and red) connected to the terminal block. You should measure approximately 120V AC from each hot wire to the neutral wire (typically white).
