Thermador 37 in. CET365 Electric Cooktop - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
I burned out a few circuits on the electronic
Sorry to say,but if there was an improper wiring,it could fry just about everything/anything.To repair it would be time consuming and probably cost about just as much.Labor for a repair center easily starts at $60/hour,maybe more.Repair centers have a parts price minimum markup of 20%.Unless you have a solder gun and a multimeter and solder to repair yourself,it would be a very wide range estimate considering the circumstances.It could cost $40,it could cost $400.If the display is not working especially and needs replacing,that is quite expensive.If you do have some of the equipment,I could guide you on a few things to check first.Although you say a few circuits,if you do not have the knowledge it may just be 1 circuit really,most likely input power to start with which is 2 diodes to check,then go from there.If you have any questions or need more help,just comment here and I will get an autolink to your post and reply ASAP.Good luck,Greg
Won't shut off!!
there is a control board under the glass where you touch to make it come on. some models were recalled. it you contact thermador they should come and take care of it for you
Some of the control knobs on my Thermador Rangetop PCG366W sink all the way in so that you can't see the writing on the knob, is that normal? If not, is there a fix for it?
Burners Do Not Start
Hand on burners
The Burners Do Not Start
There are several solutions for this problem:
The main gas supply may not be turned on. Make sure it is turned on.
Check the power supply and make sure the unit is plugged in and the circuit breaker has not tripped.
Make sure the burners are properly positioned.
The igniters may be dirty. Carefully wipe the igniters with a cotton swab dampened with water after they have cooled down. Gently scrape the soil off with a toothpick. Avoid exposing the igniters to excessive water as a damp igniter may not light up. Remove any lint that may remain after cleaning.
The ignition will be quicker if a cooking pan is on the grate. Ignite the gas at full and once alight, turn it down to around 50%. It should lock on within 6 seconds.
Does the burner click when the burner knob is in the ON position? If yes, you may have a wiring issue at the outlet that the appliance is connected to. Turn off the main gas supply and contact a qualified electrician to fix this.
Does the burner click when the burner knob is in the OFF position? If yes, check for the following:
1. Check to see if the burner cap is properly placed and the igniter is not wet or dirty.
2. Check to see if the regulator supplied with the unit is installed properly. The arrow on the regulator should be pointing to the appliance. Please call a professional installer

Two electric burnings on thermador cooktop not working. Can they be repaired
Surface burners
are typically either a coil type, solid type or a ribbon coil as used in smooth top ranges. All of these consist of a heating wire that uses electric current to produce heat. Coil type elements can be checked for continuity by removing them from the terminal block and testing them with a multi-meter.You should also inspect the terminal ends for signs of heat damage or corrosion, and if present, you should replace the terminal block or receptacle at the same time. You will need to remove power from the range to change the terminal block. Solid elements and smooth top elements require raising or removing the main top to gain access. You will need to remove power from the range before lifting the main top. Continuity can then be checked with a multi-meter, once you have removed the wires from the element terminals.
On modern electronic control ranges,the oven temperature sensor
is the part thatregulates the oven temperature. If it is not working properly it could be the reason why the range or oven won't start. This part can be found inside the oven on the rear wall near the top. Most modern ovens will display a fault code if the oven sensor is at fault. If you think the sensor may be the issue you can check the resistance with a multi-meterbut will need to know the correctresistance of the sensor at room temperature. Remove power from the appliance before performing this test.
The infinite switch
on the control panel controls the power to each surface element. If you have no heat at an element and the element and terminal block check ok, then you may have a defective infinite switch. Disconnect power to the range and remove the console back panel. Locate the switch and check foroverheated wires or faulty terminals first.Test the switch's contacts for continuity with a multi-meter. If defective, replace the switch.
- If the infinite switch does not appear to be defective, then you should check for proper voltage to the switch. This is a live high voltage test and should only be performed by qualified persons.(Locate the suspect switch for testing. Label all wires and terminals before disconnecting. A close up digital photo may be helpful.
- On the burner control switch the terminal labeled "P" leads to the burner indicator light. The terminals labeled "H1" and "H2" lead to the burner element and the terminals labeled "L1" and "L2" (sometimes "N1" and "N2") are the power supply wires.
- Set yourmultimeterto ohms setting x1. Turn the burner control to the highest temperature setting. Place one probe on pin "L1" and the second probe on pin "H1". The resistance measurement should be very low, zero to twenty ohms. If the test shows high or infinite resistance, the burner switch is defective.
- Repeat the step above for the terminals "L2" and "H2".
- If the control passes that test, turn the temperature setting to about the middle of the range and repeat the previous two steps. This will test for an intermittent problem with the switch. If the test does not show continuity with very low resistance, the switch should be replaced.
- With the switch turned to the "Off" position, the resistance on each of the pairs of terminals tested above should now show no continuity or a reading of infinite resistance.
- A test for continuity between "P" and "L1" when the burner control switch is on should show continuity. The light should be on whenever the control is turned on. If your test shows continuity, but the light does not operate, it is likely the bulb has failed.
If the burner switch shows high or infinite resistance, the switch is not passing along current to the burner and so the switch should be replaced. )
Most modern ovens usean electronic control board
to control the oven functions. These models will use the control board to operate the oven safety valve on a gas range or oven, and the bake and broil elements on an electric range or oven. If there is no power to the igniter circuit, or the element circuits, then you should check the control board to verify that there is power at the appropriate output relay. These are live voltage checks and should be performed by qualified persons only. If there is no output voltage then the control should be replaced.

Two burners on thermador cook top turn off by themselves
It is common for electric coils on a range top to click/on/off. They are suppose to reach a certain heating range and when satisfied, they go neutral and when the demand for heat is needed, they become energized again.

Have a thermador psc364gdzs the spark does not work for the gridle
The spark module is in the ignition circuit for the gas burners. When a burner control knob is turned to the Lite position, it provides voltage to the spark electrodes on the gas burners. If the spark module fails to provide the electrodes with voltage, then it should be replaced.

Cook top not igniting
Find the gas interlock, keeps gas from escaping when trbl with burners...You need to follow procedure for relighting which entails preheating interlock.

Pilot lock light on stove is on so stove burners unable to work
This sounds like you may have to fix a problem in the pilot area before it will work. These gas operated devices have to meet a much higher safety standard than their electric counterparts. It is a built- in safety feature. Now, look for any obstruction or crimp in the gas line. My guess is you are not getting proper gas flow or pressure or the pilot could be physically blocked.

Ge monogram ZGU366LPSS one burner does not light up
It will light with a lighter just not the igniter which means the igniter is not working, sometimes they crack and run to earth, remove the top and turn off the lights you will see it sparking where it's running to earth.
