I have a frigidaire oven with a bad control panel or some call it electronic timer.I want to know if i replace it will it work by simply replacing it or does it need some special programing after it is installed? The motor latch assembly is also bad that opens and closes the door when it is in clean mode if i dont replace this will the oven still work as long as i dont use the clean cycle.Also ithe locking rod easy easy acessed from under the range top could i just turn it to locked and clen it and turn it back after it has finished and cooled down.Just trying to go the cheapest route.I know this is whats wrong because i took it to a frigidaire repair place but they wanted $460 to replace everything and i could buy a new one for that.I can get the control panel on your site for $190 and the motor latch assembly for $75 but would rather not replace this if i dont need to. thank you brad

Brad,
As far as replacing the control board, it's a simple changeout. There is no need for any programming - "plug and play".
And as far as the motor latch assembly, if you keep the bad one in, it may (or may not) trigger an error code on the control board and you won't be able to use the oven. I can't really comment on manually releasing the locking rod. Not because I want you to spend the money on the new latch assembly, but because: 1. it's not really a safe option 2. liability issues.

I have taken the back off of the top back of the range, model fgf354, and I can see the timer/clock. Now what? It doesn't seem to want to come out and is driving me nuts. Wife is on me to geterdone. Help.
