When your Garland stove turns off by itself, the touchpad is the most likely cause, especially if some buttons respond intermittently or do not respond at all. A faulty touchpad can interrupt stove operation and should be replaced. On an electric Garland range, inspect the power cord and terminal block next. Loose or burned connections can overheat, damage the terminal block, melt wire insulation, and cause intermittent power loss. If a surface element shuts off but starts working when you turn its dial off and back on or select another setting, the control board may be failing. Check the power cord, terminal block, and surface element control before replacing the board. Loose or damaged wire connectors can also interrupt power, so inspect the wiring for breaks, loose connections, and burn marks. Less commonly, a failed relay board or main control board can shut the stove off by itself because these parts control power to the heating elements and other components. Disconnect power before testing or repairing electrical parts. Enter your Garland stove model number to find the exact replacement touchpad, power cord, control board, wire connector, relay board, or main control board for your appliance.

If a stove 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 power cord connections in the terminal block on your electric range are not secure the wire can overheat, burning the connections on the terminal block, and melting the coating on the wires. Check to ensure the connections are tight and not burnt. If the terminal block connectors are burnt, the terminal block should be replaced. If the power cord terminal connectors are burnt or damaged, the power cord should be replaced. If the power cord prongs are burnt, a new power cord should be installed and the receptacle checked and replaced if necessary by a licenced electrician.
If the stove surface element starts working again when the surface element dial or control is turned off and back on or to a different heat setting, it's likely that the control board is the cause of the stove turning off on its own. You should confirm that the surface element control is functioning normally and the appliance's power cord and terminal block are in good condition before considering a control board replacement.
Inspect the wiring and connectors, especially coming from the main power cord. A loose connection can cause intermittent power failure. Inspect the wiring for breaks or burn marks. Repair wiring as needed.
Some ovens are equipped with a relay board. The relay board has several relays which control the electrical current to the heating element, and other components of the stove. If one or more of the relays on the relay board has failed, the oven may shut off. If the relay board is defective, replace it.
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.
