The Most Common Repairs of Viking Range Stoves
The Viking Range Corporation, founded by Fred Carl, Jr. in Greenwood, Mississippi in 1987, originated the concept of commercial type cooking appliances for the home. In 2013 The Mittleby Corporation, the largest commercial equipment manufacturer in the world, acquired the Viking Range Corporation. Now it manufactures both residential and commercial kitchen appliances. Cooking products include freestanding ranges, rangetops, cooktops and ovens. Of course, Viking is also famous for refrigerators, dishwashers and more.
The Viking motto is “Professional Performance for the Home.” It holds a position as a foremost manufacturer of premium appliances. Viking’s use of quality, heavy-duty materials and innovative design produce professional level appliances. Yet even premium products sometimes need repairs. Following is a list of some of the most common repairs required for Viking Range Corporation’s stoves and ranges.

The spark electrode, spark wire or spark module might be defective. If no voltage reaches the spark module the spark ignition switch might need to be replaced.
– Self-Cleaning Oven Doesn’t Work
The oven thermostat may be working properly for broiling and baking but not for self-cleaning or a defective oven control board may not be sending voltage to the heating components.
– Oven Doesn’t Bake Evenly or Broiler Doesn’t Work
If either the bake element or the broil element is burned out the oven will heat unevenly. The element that is not glowing red hot may be defective and, if so, will have to be replaced. The igniter, which draws electrical current through the oven safety valve to open it, might be burnt out. It. If the oven safety valve that allows gas into the oven is weak it takes longer to open so an insufficient amount of gas enters the oven to ignite.

– Oven Won’t Turn Off
If the igniter or the bake or broil elements are defective they may prevent the oven from turning off. If they are not, the temperature control thermostat might be defective. The oven control board relays send voltage to the bake and broil circuits as controlled by user settings and by the sensor input. If a control board relay shorts closed, the control board will send continuous voltage to the heating circuit. The entire control board may have to be replaced. If the heating element burns out it can sometimes short out the inside of the oven which will sometimes not allow the oven to turn off.
