Kenmore 66595002102 electric range Parts

For Kenmore electric range model 66595002102, the most reliable “reset” for the oven control board is a full power cycle: turn the range off, shut off the breaker (or unplug) for 5 minutes, then restore power and clear the display. Use the 66595002102 owner's manual for the exact control-panel steps.

Reset steps we recommend (in order)

• Press OFF/CANCEL to stop any active cycle.
• Turn OFF the range circuit breaker (or unplug the cord).
• Wait 5 minutes (this lets the control fully discharge).
• Restore power.
• If the display is flashing after a power failure, clear the display and reset the clock.
• If the display shows a letter followed by a number (an error code), clear it; if it returns, troubleshoot the related circuit.

If the control is “locked” (not a bad board)

Your range can ignore most keypad presses when lockout is enabled.

Symptom	What you’ll see/hear	What to do
Oven won’t accept most keypad presses	“Loc” and a lock icon; 3 tones on invalid presses	Press and hold OVEN for 5 seconds to toggle lockout
After a power failure, controls still won’t work	Lock remains on if it was enabled before outage	Unlock using the same OVEN (5 seconds) step

When a “reset” points to a failed part

If the oven heats incorrectly or throws temperature-related errors after a power cycle, a common cause is a failed temperature sensor. For this model, the replacement is the oven sensor WPW10181986.

Quick checks before replacing parts

• Make sure the oven is not in Self-Clean (high heat can trigger lock and error behavior).
• Confirm the breaker is fully seated (flip OFF, then ON).
• Look for loose or heat-damaged wiring at the sensor and control.
• If an error code keeps returning, use Kenmore 665 error codes to match the code to the most likely circuit.

Why it matters

A power cycle clears temporary electronic glitches, while lockout and repeating error codes point to a settings issue or a component (like the oven sensor, bake element, or wiring) that needs attention.

On a Kenmore 66595002102 electric range, an oven that “stops working” is usually caused by a control setting (lockout or 12-hour auto shutoff), a power interruption, or a failed heating or temperature-sensing part such as the bake element or oven sensor. Confirm settings first, then test components.

Quick checks first (no parts needed)

• Make sure the display is on; if it is blank, check the house breaker (range circuits can trip partially).
• If you see “Loc” or a lock icon, turn off Oven lockout (press and hold OVEN for about 5 seconds). See the 66595002102 owner's manual.
• If the oven ran for a long time and then shut off, the control may have hit the 12-hour automatic shutoff; you can override it by pressing and holding CLOCK for 5 seconds (the manual shows “12H OFF”).
• Cancel any active cycle by pressing OFF/CANCEL, then try BAKE again.
• If the oven is in or just finished self-clean, the door can stay locked until it cools; normal operation resumes after it unlocks.

Most common part-related causes

If settings and power are good, these are the most frequent failures on electric ranges:

• Bake element burned out or cracked: oven will not heat in BAKE or heats very slowly.
• Oven sensor out of range: oven may not heat, may shut off, or may heat erratically.
• Control or keypad issue: buttons do not respond, random beeping, or functions will not start.

Parts that match this model

Symptom	Likely part	What you may notice
No heat on BAKE	Bake element WPW10308477	Visible blistering, breaks, or no glow
Temps way off or won’t regulate	Oven sensor WPW10181986	Over/underheating, error behavior

Why it matters

Checking lockout and the 12-hour shutoff can restore operation immediately and prevents unnecessary part replacement. If a heating circuit is failing (element, sensor, wiring), continued use can lead to inconsistent cooking and repeated shutdowns.

For the Kenmore electric range model 66595002102, the model and serial label is on the oven frame behind the storage drawer panel. Pull the storage drawer out, then look on the frame area just behind where the drawer sits.

Where to look (quick steps)

• Turn the range off and let it cool.
• Pull the storage drawer straight out until it stops.
• Lift the front of the drawer slightly (if needed) to release it from the glides.
• Look on the oven frame behind the drawer opening for the model/serial rating plate.
• Write down the full model number and serial number exactly as shown.

What the label looks like

Most Kenmore ranges use a model/serial rating plate that includes:

• Model number (for example, 66595002102)
• Serial number
• Electrical rating information (voltage and frequency)
• Installation clearance references

If you need this for	Write down	Why it helps
Ordering replacement parts	Model number	Ensures correct part fit
Service or troubleshooting	Model and serial number	Identifies the exact production version
Installation requirements	Electrical rating info	Confirms proper power supply

Why it matters

Kenmore model numbers can look similar across different series; using the exact model number from the rating plate helps us match the correct diagrams, parts (like a bake element or oven sensor), and instructions for your specific range.

For diagrams and additional label details, use the 66595002102 owner's manual or the 66595002102 installation guide.
