After clean cycle noticed that oven did not work. Burners on top are fine.

After pressing 'Bake' and setting temperature, oven stays on for 20 seconds then switches off.

Ran another clean cycle and noticed that both elements glowed orange during clean cycle.

Turned off power to range and waited 5 minutes. Turned back on and oven still shuts off after 20 seconds. Also shuts off after 20 seconds when 'Broil' is selected.

Pressed a few buttons randomly, Timer, Cancel, Bake, Cancel, Cook Time, Cancel, etc. Pressed 'Broil' and it worked!
After a few minutes set to 'Bake' at 300 degrees and oven heated to 300 in about 10 minutes.
Turned off the oven by pressing Cancel.

Told my wife "Hey, I fixed it!".

Wife pressed 'Bake', set temp to 400. Oven shut off after 20 seconds. :(

Broil doesn't work anymore either.

Noticed that on the display "Delay", "Oven On", "Clean", "Timer" parts sometimes all flicker and/or stay on. This has been happening on and off for the last few years with no other problems noticed.

Wife says "You didn't fix it. We need a new oven." Is she right?

Sounds like the bake and broil relays are bad. Rule #1, Never use self clean. Rule #2, if you thinking about using self clean, refer to rule #1. Self clean gets to such a high temperature it sometimes destroy's components.
