Thread: Kitchenaid range - blows breaker/oven not heat

Just got a new Kitchenaid Architect II propane gas range Model KGSS907. It worked fine for 2 weeks then while oven was on one time it blew the breaker (20 amp) when the top burner was turned on. The stove is only 15 amps. After that happened the fan stayed on all the time.

The repairman advised to plug range into a different breaker and apparently ordered parts to fix fan. He said we could use it and just plug it in when needed. That ended tonight when the fan won't go at all and the new breaker keeps blowing. The oven light now stays on when plugged in and when the oven is turned on it sounds as though the oven starts, but before it begins to heat the breaker blows. It keeps blowig the breaker at this same time. The only good thing is the range top works!

When the range is plugged in the following appears on the display: "Kitchenaid" with the number "30" below it. There is also the following below that: AM16 VI15 EEKGO-004.

The repairman is coming back this week and I am trying to get a head start on this new development to assist. It's now been two weeks and frustration is getting high - especially with the kids coming home for the holidays!

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
