Using the broiler there was a loud pop. It threw the breaker. After turning the breaker back on the stove top works, but the oven does not. The light works inside the oven, but not the elements. The controls for the oven and clock do not work. I am guessing it is the control board that sits behind the clock, since it only seems to be affecting the clock and the oven controls/clock buttons. So do I chance spending $200 to fix it and something else goes wrong (it is 10-1/2 years old) or spend $599 for a new one? We have the money, but would rather spend it on something besides a stove. My spouse says appliances only last 10 years, but I have heard others having appliances still going strong (maybe with 1 repair) for 15 or 20 years. Wonder what my odds are?
