Loud "pop" from oven...and...display is dead / no oven heat. In theory, this is "simple": replace a circuit board. In practice, the oven is 10 years old, the board is likely unavailable, and I bet the whole thing goes in the dumpster. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

4/ I think that I'll end up doing is: (a) shuffle the menu plan so I don't have to bake anything for a few weeks (b) throw this oven in the dumpster (c) buy a used oven off of Craigslist for $200, or a new one from Lowes for $400. (d) do the mondo-oven upgrade in 3-4 years

5/ My calculation is this: if I can avoid spending $10k for 3 or 4 or 5 years, until that point where I WANT to spend it, at a cost of ~$400, I'm effectively "borrowing" $10k from the future at a certain cost. It breaks down to a standard interst calc. https://twitter.com/mshpitsoccermom/status/977684445003243520 …

6/ Yep, this is another thought I've got. The "pop" sure sounded like a big capacitor. And I've got a soldering station, a selection of capactiors, a desolderer, etc. OTOH, I've been down this road before where a busted cap actually damages board...https://twitter.com/moddedLimes/status/977684146268065792 …

7/ ...and worse than buying a new oven for $500 is FIRST wasting a few hours taking apart an oven, removing the board, desoldering a cap, replacing it, reinstalling it, having wonky behavior for a month, having the oven die again, and THEN spending $500 on a new oven.

One solution might be a used Craigslist stove that will last ~until he's ready for the nice one.
