Whirlpool WP5760M373-60 Range Control Panel With Touch Pad OEM Part

My 15 year old son and I examined the new parts and made a plan for how we were going to take the front off of the oven. Turns out it was fairly simple. We removed the knobs, the knob shrouds, two philip screws on the side of the head and about 6, 6mm hex sheet screws. Voila! It came apart. We carefully looked at how the old parts were assembled and simply reversed the assembly with the new parts. Since one of our parts was the entire front head, it went together quickly and it was a perfect fit. We plugged it in after assembly and all functions are restored! We saved Thanksgiving!

Checked out the problem on Appliance Parts Pros, found the part and replaced it. The fix is basically unscrewing regular Philips head screws and some with a hex top and then disconnecting a flat "cable" that goes from the buttons to the actual electronic controls. It takes a bit of effort to line everything up exactly to put the screws back in, so working with someone else can be helpful. My advice, take pictures on your camera of each step so that you can refer to it when putting it back together!

All in all it was fairly simple. Removal of the panel was straight forward. Removal of all screws, and knobs was the simple part. wiggling out the panel had some surprises with more wiring attached then I thought, but by taking it slow and looking at it, the removal of the main circuit board involved only 4 screws and none of the wiring had to be removed. Install was just a reversal of removal. It is a DIY job saving a couple of hundred bucks.

Replaced complete panel with part ordered from Appliance Part Pros

Replaced the control panel. Shelly was great in helping me find the right parts. The whole thing would have take around 10 minutes, except that one of the screws on my stove was corroded in place, so I had to cut the head off with a Dremel too, drill the rest of the screw out and re-tap the hole. If you don;t have that issue, it is a really simple and straightforward repair
