Caloric Range/Stove/Oven Parts

Caloric Range, Stove & Oven Parts

Caloric ranges built a solid reputation for mid-century residential cooking, and many of these stoves are still in service. Whether your Caloric gas or electric range won't heat, has a broken igniter, or needs a control board, Repair Clinic stocks genuine OEM parts to get your kitchen running again. Caloric is now part of the Whirlpool family, and we carry parts for both vintage and modern Caloric models.

Common Caloric range repairs center on heating elements, igniters, and control boards. A non-heating oven or broken stovetop element is one of the most frustrating kitchen failures — but often a straightforward fix with the right OEM part and a little time.

• Gas oven won't heat: Igniter failure (flat silicon carbide type); gas valve assembly
• Electric oven or cooktop no heat: Bake or broil element burned out; thermal fuse blown after self-clean cycle
• Oven temperature wrong: Temperature sensor (thermistor); oven control board
• Range won't respond to controls: Control board (clock/timer assembly); knobs or switches
• Cooktop glass cracked or broken: Main top glass assembly; door hinges or gasket

Caloric Range & Oven FAQs

Where do I find my Caloric model number?

Your Caloric model number is usually printed on a label inside the oven door frame, along the inside edge of the door, or on the back of the unit. Write it down and use it in our parts lookup — it ensures you get the exact igniter, element, or board for your model. Caloric model numbers typically start with letters (like RBS, RSC, or RGC) followed by numbers.

What's the most common Caloric range repair?

Gas ovens failing to heat almost always need a new igniter — the flat silicon carbide part that glows to open the gas valve. When it weakens over time, the valve never opens and the oven stays cold. It's a 20-minute repair with an OEM part. Electric ranges most often fail on the bake element, which shows itself as a broken coil or visible burn mark inside the oven.

Can I use an aftermarket Caloric oven element or igniter instead of OEM?

Aftermarket igniters and elements may look identical, but resistance values matter — too low or too high, and the gas valve won't open properly or the element won't reach full temperature. Stick with genuine OEM Caloric parts for reliable ignition and heating. They're not much more expensive than low-quality replacements, and they come with manufacturer backing.

Why did my Caloric electric range suddenly stop working after the self-clean cycle?

The thermal fuse is a one-time safety device that blows if the oven overheats during self-cleaning. Once it fails, the entire range is dead. It's a $10 to $20 part but it must be replaced — there's no reset. Always use your model number to order the correct fuse rating.

Caloric Range/Stove/Oven Model Number: Where to Look

On Caloric ranges and ovens, look for the model number label along the inside edge of the oven door, behind the storage drawer, or on the back of the appliance. If the label is hard to read, clean the area gently and copy every letter and number exactly, including any prefixes or suffixes. Enter that number in the model number search to pull up the parts matched to your unit. This filters the full Caloric Range/Stove/Oven catalog, including parts for the cooktop, oven, controls, door, and internal systems, to your specific model rather than relying on appearance alone.
