Hi:
We ran the cleaning cycle on the upper oven of our KitchenAid Superba double oven. About halfway through the cycle, the oven shut off completely. There are no lights on the control panel and the upper over door is locked.
I flipped the circuit breaker that's going to the oven a few times, but it is still totally dead.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
PL

The first thing I would check is the control panel thermal fuse behind the control panel. - The part number for the thermal fuse is AP3777386Here are the break down diagrams for the Kitchen Aid oven Model KEBS278DBS6Gene.

During upper oven clean cycle my oven died and the door is locked. I can't get model number or get it our of the cabinet because the mounting screws are behind the locked door. IVe attached a pic of the oven. Where do I start? Jim jneyens attached the following image(s):

Open the lower oven door.
Remove the bottom screw from each of the two side trim pieces.
To remove the side trim, pull the bottom out approximately 2˝, and slide the top down to free it from the control panel.
Remove the screws from the oven control panel.
To remove the oven control panel, pull it out at the bottom, and lift and unhook it from the oven cabinet support at the top.
Now you can access the door latch and unlock the door.
Open the upper oven door, locate and post the complete model number of the oven.
Gene.

Checked the glass fuse for the panel and it is OK. Found thermal fuse on connector P4: Pulled off wire connector and had to use an Ice Pick to remove it from the connector block by pushing in the connector end.
Fuse is bad and waiting shipment of new fuse.

Jneyens Very likely the upper oven thermal fuse (#37 on the diagram) is bad as well. If the oven would not heat after you replace the control panel thermal fuse, pull the oven out of the cabinet and replace that fuse too. - The upper oven thermal fuse Part number: AP3055315
In order to avoid having such problem again do not use self clean. Gene.
