How to find model number on Whirlpool gas range?
On a Whirlpool WFG114SWB0 30-inch gas freestanding range, the model number is printed on the appliance’s rating label. We typically see it around the oven frame area or behind the lower drawer (warming/storage drawer), where it’s protected from heat and spills. Check the WFG114SWB0 owner’s manual for the exact label location and what the tag looks like.
Where to look first (fast checks)
- Pull out the lower drawer and look along the frame behind it.
- Open the oven door and check the front frame (around the door opening).
- Check the side trim near the front legs (some units place the label low on the frame).
- If your range has a broiler drawer, check the frame behind that drawer.
What to write down (so parts match)
Record the full information exactly as shown on the tag:
- Model number (example: WFG114SWB0)
- Serial number
- Purchase date (helpful for service and warranty)
| Item on label | Why we need it | Example format |
|---|---|---|
| Model number | Ensures correct parts diagrams and fit | WFG114SWB0 |
| Serial number | Helps identify production series changes | Letters and numbers |
| Purchase date | Useful for service history | MM/YYYY |
Why it matters
Whirlpool ranges can have small design changes by production run. Using the complete model number and serial number helps us match the correct Whirlpool parts (like an oven igniter, control board, or temperature sensor) the first time.

What are the symptoms of a bad oven control board Whirlpool?
On a Whirlpool WFG114SWB0 gas range, a failing oven control board often shows up as a dead or flickering display, buttons that do not respond (or respond randomly), error codes, or an oven that will not heat, overheats, or shuts off mid-cycle. Confirm basic power and wiring checks before replacing parts; see the WFG114SWB0 owner's manual.
Common symptoms you can expect
- Display goes blank, flickers, or resets when you press Start
- Keypad buttons do nothing, beep incorrectly, or trigger the wrong function
- Oven will not start a bake or broil cycle, even though the cooktop works
- Oven starts, then cancels or shuts off within a few seconds or minutes
- Temperature swings: underheating, overheating, or long preheat times
- Repeated fault codes after clearing power (often after a self-clean cycle)
Quick checks before you replace the board
Turn off power at the breaker before opening panels.
- Verify the range has steady power (no tripped breaker, no loose cord/terminal block)
- Cancel the cycle and retry after a 1 minute power reset (breaker off, then on)
- Check for a stuck key (a key that feels jammed can mimic a board failure)
- Inspect visible wiring/connectors for heat damage or looseness at the control area
- If the oven heats but temperatures are inaccurate, test the sensor first; the range oven temperature sensor WPW10181986 is a common cause of wrong temps
Control board vs. other likely causes
| Symptom | More likely cause | What we check first |
|---|---|---|
| No bake/broil, no ignition sequence | Igniter or control | Listen for gas/ignition attempt; inspect igniter circuit |
| Oven heats but temp is off | Temperature sensor | Sensor resistance and harness condition |
| Display dead but cooktop works | Control board or power feed | Power at outlet/terminal block, then control connections |
| Random beeping or wrong button actions | Keypad/control panel or board | Stuck key, moisture/grease intrusion, ribbon connection |
Why it matters
The electronic oven control manages timing, temperature regulation, and safety logic. When it fails, the oven can become unreliable (no heat) or unsafe (overheating), so accurate diagnosis helps you avoid replacing the wrong part.

What are the most common stove parts to replace?
On the Whirlpool WFG114SWB0 30-inch gas freestanding range, the most commonly replaced parts are ignition and temperature-related components (when the oven will not heat or heats unevenly), plus wear items like the oven light bulb and door hardware. Use the WFG114SWB0 owner's manual to match symptoms to the right part.
Most common replacements for this model
These are frequent fixes we see when a range will not ignite, will not maintain temperature, or has basic usability issues:
- Oven igniter: a weak igniter can prevent the bake burner from lighting or cause long preheat times (see range oven igniter W10918546).
- Oven temperature sensor: helps the control regulate oven temperature; a bad sensor can cause overbaking or underbaking (see range oven temperature sensor WPW10181986).
- Oven light bulb: if the light does not work, replacement is straightforward (see light bulb 8009).
- Oven door hinge pins: used for safe door removal and reinstallation during service (see range oven door removal hinge pin set 98012220).
- Control components: if the display or keypad functions act up, the electronic control or control board may be involved.
Quick symptom-to-part guide
| Symptom | Most likely part to check first | What you typically notice |
|---|---|---|
| Oven will not heat, no burner ignition | Oven igniter | No glow at igniter, no gas ignition |
| Oven temperature is inaccurate | Oven temperature sensor | Food cooks too fast or too slow |
| Oven light will not turn on | Light bulb | Light stays off even when selected |
| Door removal or alignment issues after service | Hinge pin set | Door feels hard to seat or unstable |
Before you order a part
We recommend these quick checks first because they prevent unnecessary returns and repeat repairs:
- Confirm the symptom happens in Bake, Broil, or both.
- Make sure the range has power (a tripped breaker can mimic a failure).
- For oven light issues, let the oven cool and verify the control knobs are Off before servicing.
- If you are testing electrical parts, use a meter correctly (see how to use a multimeter to test electrical parts video).
- Use the model number WFG114SWB0 when selecting parts to ensure fit.
Why it matters
Replacing the correct part restores safe ignition, stable oven temperature, and normal day-to-day use. On gas ranges, ignition and temperature control parts (like the igniter and sensor) directly affect cooking performance and reliability.
