I have a Jenn-Aire dual fuel range purchased circa 1997 that has recently been throwing an F3 error (along with an occasional F1 error) after about 20 minutes of operation. I cannot find the model plate anywhere on the range, but I wrote down JD58850AAS on the installation manual when it was installed, and the diagram for this model number at Trible's website appears to match my range.
I replaced the temperature probe without effect. I think I need a new "clock module" part #74007240 but I cannot find this part available anywhere online, or calling local repair places. I prefer to replace this myself, but I will pay someone to do it if they insist.
Any hints on where I might be able to find this part, an appropriate substitute, or another strategy to fix this issue? I am already aware of the "buy a new damn range" option.

I too have a JennAire when we built in 1993 (all electric). About 3 years ago our clock/timer control unit went out and I tried to get it repaired by the local JennAire folks—no luck. The clock unit is obsolete but the range and oven unit portions still work OK as separate controls; I just can’t turn on the oven to clean. Repair guys said “planned obsolescence”—good luck.
