27 year old Chambers Oven, Chambers out of business, Whirlpool helped
The oven light gasket had deteriorated with time and bulb changes. It is a self cleaning oven, which gets very hot during the cleaning cycle. The oven is old (27years) and off the "books" I selected a similar, but slightly smaller gasket (3" OD), and "fit" it to the 3.5" light fixture of the older oven. The gasket material was similar to the original, and I used a usable portion of the original,along with the new gasket to build a gasket for the light lense. Several years prior to this repair, I replaced the oven door springs. Whirlpool, who had taken over what was left of Chambers, had the springs. I did replace one heating element about 15 years ago. The Chamber's salesman told me that the Chambers was the "Cadillac" of all ovens, and it seems to keep running.

Inner door glass broke from contact with cooler liquid.
I followed the instructions submitted by other users which were helpful. Two notes that might help someone. 1. To loosen the screws holding the inner door glass, use channel lock type pliers to slightly twist the square bracket the screw is holding. The screw comes out easily then. 2. Note that the flange on the side rails go UNDER the glass door front. I spent quite a bit of time trying to get screw holes lined up with the flanges on top - DUH!

Little or no heat when baking
In my situation I thought that I needed an Oven Temperature Sensor so I started by replacing the Oven Temperature Sensor PS388521 -
PLEASE NOTE: You CANNOT reliably do a continuity check on the bake element described here until you have completed te first four steps!!
PLEASE NOTE: Access to the lower bake element is via the RIGHT SIDE PANEL!
To replace the lower heating element (aka the bake or hidden element). These instructions are specific for the KESC307xxxx:
1. Disconnect power to the oven.
2. Move oven from it's location to gain access to the right side panel.
3. Remove the oven drawer (if any).
3. Remove three screws holding the right side panel in place and remove panel. Two of the screws are on the rear of the range. The third is accessed via the cavity where the oven drawer is mounted.
4. CAREFULLY disconnect both wires connected to the element terminals.
5. Remove one screw (not shown) from Shield-HT (item 8 in http://bit.ly/O52AP2) and remove the shield.
6. Carefully pull back fiberglass insulation to reveal cover-access panel.
7. Remove two screws that hold the element to the cover-access panel (item 3 in http://bit.ly/NjvzOi).
8. Remove one screw holding the cover-access panel in place.
9. Remove both element and cover-access panel. NOTE: Observe the orientation of the brackets that support the element so you can install the new element correctly!

oven would not heat past 170 degrees
Pulled the oven out from the counters and unplugged the electrical cord. Unscrewed the three screws holding the center back panel on and removed the panel. Located the temperature probe in the upper left part of the oven and followed the wiring to where it was connected. Unconnected the wire from the connector. Removed the screw holding the probe and pulled it out from the oven. Put the new part on and screwed it to the oven. Connected the wiring to the connector. Put the panel into the holding brackets and screwed in the three screws. Plugged in the oven and put it back against the wall. Turned on the oven, set a temperature and watched to see if it stopped at the set temperature. Bake3d dinner and ate it.

One of the burner wasn't light up.
The repair was very easy. It took me less than ten minutes. There were only five screws including two to hold heat element that I have to unscrew and transferred the old clip the screw onto new heat element.

I was missing a temperature knob.
We had been missing it for years. Perhaps it melted, maybe the dog. Anyway, Home Depot didnt have the match. I order the exact knob, received it in a very timely manner. Took it out of the package, and without any tool, placed it it it rightful spot. My wife is happy now. Thanks for helping me.

circuit breaker blew
I went to the source of power on the stove and noticed one of the terminals had come loose from the terminal block and had shorted out against the cover of the terminal junction. After prying the loose terminal off cover I ordered new terminal block and received it the 2nd day. I removed the old terminal block and replaced the part in about 10 minutes..Thank you Parts Select for your easy to find diagrams and quick delivery.
