When your GE range display is not working, the oven control board is the most likely cause, especially when the range has power but the display is dead, dim, or missing digits. A faulty display board can cause the same oven display problem, particularly if the board receives power but does not show the time, temperature, or settings. If only part of the display is visible or the digits are dim, the LED board is more likely defective. When the display board is not receiving power, the main control board may have failed. Before replacing a part, check the incoming power by making sure the range is plugged in and the outlet works. A gas range has power if the oven light comes on or a burner sparks, while an electric range has power if the surface elements turn on. Reset a tripped breaker or replace blown fuses if needed. Finally, check whether the GE range is in child lock or Sabbath mode, which can disable the control panel. Enter your model number to find the exact oven control board, display board, LED board, or main control board for your GE range.

If the display board is dead it may not be getting power from the main control board. If there is power to the display board but the display is dead, missing digits or dim, it will need to be replaced.
The range's LED board will usually display the time, temperature, and settings for the range. If the display only partially shows digits or is dim, it's likely the LED board is faulty and should be replaced (if the whole display is not working, a defective control board is more likely the cause of the problem).
The main control board sends power to the display board to operate. If the display board is not receiving power, the main control board is likely bad and will need to be replaced.
Ensure plug is tightly pushed into electrical outlet and outlet is supplying power. If the display board is not working, there could be an incoming power problem. A gas range has power if the oven light comes on and the burner sparks; an electric range has power if the surface elements turn on. If the range does not have power, check for a tripped circuit breaker or blown fuses and correct as needed.

Many ranges have a child lock or "Sabbath" feature which will prevent the buttons from being used when the feature is engaged. Consult the range's user manual for information regarding locking/unlocking the control panel.
