I cleaned the oven a couple weeks ago. The next day, the panel readout and lights wouldn't come on,

Took the back off the stove looking for a fuse. No fuse (that I could find). I did find a big
circuit board into which the oven knob and all the readouts fit. I jiggled the connections on the
board and put everything back together. Switched on the circuit breaker and the lights, timer, etc.
on the stove worked fine. The lights for the oven and broiler came on, and the oven worked.
But...the next day I went to broil some fish (more boating related stuff). I put the fish on the
broiler pan, turned on the broiler, got everything else ready, and came back in 8 minutes to get the
fish - which was still raw. The broiler didn't come on, although the light said it *should* be on. I
checked the broiler element and found no bad spots. It passed a continuity check. I got brave enough
to check the voltage on the leads coming to the broiler...nothing, even though the light was on. I
checked the multi-meter. It works fine.
So, I'm thinking it might be a problem with the circuit board. But, I would hate to waste $106
( http://tinyurl.com/b2fc496 )if I've just overlooked something else.
I know this doesn't sound very boating related, but we use the stove to cook food which we then take
on the boat to eat - sometimes.
We had a board go but it was a new stove. They replaced it with a new
stove, I guess it was easier than replacing the board
.
Well hell, this one's only 17 years old - almost new!
