When your Admiral oven turns off by itself, the touchpad is the most likely cause, especially when some buttons respond intermittently or not at all. A faulty touchpad can make the oven stop during use, so replacing the Admiral range, stove, or oven touchpad may solve the problem. A thermal fuse is another possible cause. If the oven gets too hot, the fuse trips to shut off power, and a blown fuse will prevent the oven from heating. Test it for continuity with a multimeter. The thermal fuse cannot be reset and must be replaced if it has no continuity. If some buttons work while others do not, the touchpad and control panel may be defective. If no buttons respond, a control board problem is more likely. Also check for a tripped circuit breaker or another incoming power problem. Loose or burnt connections, failed relays, or a faulty control board or main control board can cause the oven to keep turning off or shut off while baking, although these are less common. Enter your Admiral oven model number to find the exact replacement part for your range, stove, or oven.
01 - Admiral Range/Stove/Oven Touchpad
If the oven turns off on its own, determine if some of the buttons on the touchpad respond intermittently or not at all. If so, it's likely the touchpad is faulty and should be replaced.

If the oven gets too hot, the thermal fuse trips to shut off power to the oven. If the thermal fuse has blown, the oven will not heat. However, this is not a common occurrence. To determine if the thermal fuse is at fault, use a multimeter to test the fuse for continuity. If the thermal fuse does not have continuity, replace it. The thermal fuse cannot be reset—if the fuse has blown, it must be replaced.
03 - Admiral Range/Stove/Oven Touchpad and Control Panel
If an oven won't turn on, it's possible the touchpad and control panel is defective. One way to help confirm this is to determine if some touchpad buttons respond while others don't. If some of the buttons still work, then it's quite probable the touchpad and control panel is faulty and requires replacement (if none of the buttons work, a defective control board is more likely the cause of the oven not turning on).
If an oven turns off on its own there could be an incoming power problem. Verify the circuit breaker hasn't tripped.

05 - Admiral Range/Stove/Oven Control Board
The board sends power to all the components in the stove. If the control board connections are loose, or burnt, or the control board is turning off on its own, one of the relays or other components may be bad and the control will need to be replaced.
The main control board sends power to all the components in the stove. If the control board connections are loose, or burnt, or the control board is turning off on its own, one of the relays or other components may be bad and the control will need to be replaced.
