Problem
The temperature of either oven would fluctuate 50 degrees during any given cooking cycle. Ste it at 350 and come back to find it at 420.
Tools
Phillips screwdriver, 1/4 nut driver, flashlight, stepstool.
Repair & Advice
We bought the control panel; it arrived faster than promised and was the correct part. We looked at YouTube videos until I found out how to replace it.
After I turned off the power at the fuse panel, I had to remove 6 Phillips screws along the inside edges (visible once the oven doors are opened) holding the oven in the wall. I gently wiggled the oven away from the wall far enough to see 2 -1/4" hex head screws holding the complete upper panel to the oven. I removed those 4 screws ( 2 on each side) while holding the face panel from falling. Lifting it off the upper lip I was able to disconnect about 10-12 labeled connectors. I set the face panel on a towel on the counter, removed the 4 additional 1/4" screws holding the control to the face plate and swapped out the control.
Assembly was simple (reverse order) and aside from dropping a 1/4" socket in the wall, never to be seen again, the new part works fine.
We had to adjust the temperature a couple of times testing how long it would hold temp and how hot it would get, but within a day of multiple settings we are within 10 degrees of holding perfectly at any desired temp (300-475)
The entire replacement took 20 minutes. Getting the tools, flashlight, step stool and looking for the socket made it an hour job.

Repair & Advice
Tested incoming voltage, tested voltage to the control board, ohm tested limit switches. Determined that the control board/display was out. Installing the new board/display was exactly what was needed. Oven is working better than new. Thank you Parts DR.
