When your Whirlpool range display is not working, the oven display is blank, dim, or missing segments, start with the oven control board. When the range has power but the display is completely dead, the control board is the most likely cause and may need replacement. A failed display board can also cause an oven display not working problem, especially when the board is receiving power but shows no time, temperature, or settings. If only part of the digital display is missing or dim, the LED board is more likely faulty. Next, check the main control board, which supplies power to the display board. Before replacing parts, confirm the range is receiving incoming power. A gas range has power if the oven light works and the burners spark, while an electric range has power if the surface elements turn on. Check the outlet, circuit breaker, and fuses. If the display works but the oven control panel is not responding, the range may be in child-lock or Sabbath mode. Enter your Whirlpool range model number to find the exact replacement control board, display board, LED board, or main control board for your appliance.

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).
04 - Whirlpool Range/Stove/Oven Main Control Board
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.
