Home Forums we ordered an American Range part AMRA11101 on order 000000002621758, and it is still doing the same thing. The oven keeps getting hotter and hotter, and they keep adjusting it temp down, but it does not go down. Can you tell us what to do? we ordered an American Range part AMRA11101 on order 000000002621758, and it is still doing the same thing.

    A funny story:

    At my former service company, our will-call parts folks sold a tstat to a restaurant owner.  He returned it the next day –  stating that it didn’t work and was defective.

    The defective tstat he was attempting to return had a butt-splice crimped in it to hold the capillary together. 

    He said it was too long, so he shortened it.

     

    That’s just another reason why I’m EXTREMELY hesitant to answer insanely simplistic DIY questions.
