HOWEVER ON THE MORE EXPENSIVE MODELS AND PARTICULAR THE DOUBLE WALL OVENS THE COMPUTER CONTROL AND THE TOUCH PAD ARE TWO SEPERATE COMPONENTS.

THE TOUCH PAD IS USUALLY IN THE GLASS FRONT THAT COVERS THE CONTROL--ON THESE MODELS YOU WILL SOMETIMES GET A ---F7--CODE----

WHENEVER THERE IS A-- F7--OR--F1--ON THIS MODEL IT MEANS THE PROBLEM IS EITHER IN THE CONTROL OR IN THE TOUCH PAD.

    • Whirlpool Polara Refrigerated Range

      This is a stove that has the capability to also be used as a refrigerator, this stove was introduced about 6 years ago. The idea behind this stove is that it gives the owner the options to take the chicken out of the refrigerator and place it into the oven where it can be kept cool for several hours. With the stove set to the cooling mode cooking can be set to start at a later time. - 4 years ago
