PGR3 Range - Overview

Removed knobs and venturies. Unplugged electrical inputs. Lifted top plate. Replaced potentiometer. Replaced parts and plugged in electric supplies. Tested. Piece of cake, except for locating replacement potentiometer.

Purchased a screw extractor set from the local Ace Hardware (SpeedOut). Be sure and carefully follow the screw extractor instructions as written (counterclockwise turn). Removed old screws and replaced them with new screws supplied by PartSelect.

Remove slide racks from oven. At the back right corner of oven unscrew heat sensor probe. Access rear of range. Remove screws holding back panel. Find wire from temperature probe where it passes through back wall of over and unclip it pulling probe wire and probe out back of oven. From the inside of oven, push chopstick through hole probe wire was routed through, to find hole in back wall of oven. Once chopstick is visible from back of oven, with chopstick enlarge hole through visible insulation. This is the opening the new probe wire needs to be routed through. From inside oven push new wire, using chopstick, through this hole and reattach wire at back of oven using the plastic clip on the wire. From inside oven screw probe to back of oven wall, reattach outside panel to back of oven, turn gas back on, plug range back in, check oven operates, and push range back in place, reinstall racks. You may have to remove oven door if you have trouble reaching to the back of the oven to access the probe. YouTube videos are easy to find showing how to do that.
