Help! Any appliance engineers around here?

I broke my Kenmore oven

I was replacing the right side oven light bulb & screwing in the new one when there was a loud pop & a bright spark.

The result is my oven & digital display has stopped working but my stoves all work fine.

I opened up the back & didn't see (to my untrained eyes at least) a fuse/breaker there. I thought it'd be behind the control panel somewhere.

Is there a fuse/breaker somewhere that I need to replace/reset? Or did I kill the control board?

Is it a big complex job to replace it? Or is it reasonably simple?

Anyone in the area able to come fix it?

Thanks.

I think all ranges either have fuses or a circuit breaker. On mine, If your looking at the stove, the very top above the knobs flips up, and there is a circuit breaker in there

There's no access panel on top or on te front.

Around the back, I removed the panels & looked all around but didn't see anything obvious.

Anyone know if there's separate fuses/breakers for the stove and oven or will one fuse/breaker control everything?

Cooker is a Kenmore C970-648295 from January 2007.

Since only your display is out, I think you fried something on the controls board. My display went on my wall oven. Cost me $85 to have them tell me what I suspected which was the control board. They wanted $340 for the board and another $85 to install it after they got it in. I got it for $240 and installed it myself. Had to figure out how to take the oven apart and then had to disconnect about 15 connections. Good thing I labelled them so I could reconnect them. Make sure you flip the breaker for the oven before you start taking it apart.
Good luck

By the sounds of it, you've shorted out the control board.

Ya, sounds like you blew the control board. Before you replace it, make sure the bulb socket isn't spinning or it will happen next time as you're shorting out the socket wiring. And turn off the breaker next time you change the bulb too.
I don't know who you have out your way but in Vancouver, Handy Appliances should have the board if you want to replace it yourself.
Their parts guys aren't very helpful answering questions, so make sure it really is the board you want to replace before you buy it.

Here's a link to a manual

Looks like #24 or #25 is a breaker

It sounds like you burnt out the clock to me.
The clock also controls the oven function for temperature control.
Mine burnt out with an electrical storm we had.
My stove had no fuses on the top either.
The cheapest I could find one was on ebay. you can look up the part from the manufacturer & then search ebay for the exact replacement.
There were several new ones available for ourc stove & were half the cost of local shops.
We did however opt out on ordering the part after crunching #'s we just bought a new one.
Good luck

Engineers don't fix appliances.... Just saying
