whirlpool oven temperature setting

garis

I have a built-in oven by whirlpool, model RBS245PD. When I select "bake" the temperature defaults to 350 degress F. When I push the "increase temperature" button the temperature decreases in 5 degree increments. The same thing happens when I press the "decrease temperature button". The manual says the top temperature is 500 degrees. Any suggestions? This is a new control panel - the old one burnt out in a lightning strike. Thanks.

So what exactly is your question?

hardwareman

that is exactly how it is suppose to operate, default is 350 and 5 degree increment up or down

The temperature decreases whether I hit the increase button or the decrease button. I need to increase the temperature above 350.

Sounds like a bad board.

My problem is resolved. I shut the power off to the oven and waited 10 minutes and when I powered up again it worked. It has worked ever since. Not sure what the initial issue was.
