Pulled this from a house on the street I grew up. Am thinking about saving it. I know the top oven doesn't work. It has the three size sensa temp burner. It is also p7 self clean on the lower oven.
I am just torn if i want to deal with it or not.

I have the Hotpoint version of this in the house I just bought. My upper oven works but not the lower oven. The elements tested out fine, the repair guy thinks it could be the thermostat but the part doesn't seem to be available anywhere.

About that Hotpoint lower oven.... Does the clock for the range still work? If not, have a look at the dial for 'hours to cook' and 'start time'; if either dial has a setting marked MAN for 'manual' turn the dial until this position clicks in, then try the lower oven. I had a Hotpoint built-in years ago that suddenly stopped working after I had cleaned the control panel and inadvertently messed with the timer settings - but I 'fixed' it just by engaging that manual setting. | ||

Thats a real shame, considering what great shape it was in you could have just changed out the cook-top oven door Etc from a white one that was not in such great shape. Even just the sensor for the STB was worth around $100.
Hi Paul, HP and GE ranges since the late 50s have a separate Timed Bake position on the oven selector switch so the clock has no bearing on oven operation UNLESS you set the selector Sw to TB instead of bake. | ||

I put that model in the home I built in 78. Very pleased with it. It should have removable panels in the upper oven that you can put (along with the drip) pans into the bottom oven and self clean the whole mess. Great stove. Wish someone made it today. | ||
