How to Repair Your Whirlpool Gold Builtin Oven Touchpad - GBD277PDB GBD277PDQ GBD277PDS GBD307PDB GBD307PDQ GBD307PDS GBD307PDT Using KP1308A1 Replacement Membrane

The membrane keypad or touchpad is a frequent failure point on these ovens. Often the Whirlpool part is no-longer-available or on factory backorder, or just prohibitively expensive. This tip will show you how to save your oven from the landfill!

Replacement touchpad membranes are available from FixYourBoard. See www.fixyourboard.com/ledgestone.html for a comprehensive list of applicable models and original part numbers.

Step 1. Remove Original Plastic Bezel

BE SURE TO REMOVE POWER TO OVEN FIRST!

You are going to re-use the original plastic bezel. Remove the panel from your oven that contains the keypad and control board. Uplug the keypad from the control board. Remove the control board from the panel (4 screws).

Step 2. Remove Original Touchpad Membrane

With a heat gun, lightly heat the original keypad from the back of the panel. This will soften the adhesive. Gently but firmly push the old keypad off the bezel by pushing from the back of the panel on the keypad window. Carefully remove the original keypad element. Most of the original adhesive should pull off with the keypad. Rub off any remaining adhesive.

Step 3. Install New Ledgestone Touchpad

Remove adhesive backing paper from the Ledgestone Technologies KP1308A1 Replacement Touchpad Membrane. Align and adhere new touchpad to recess in plastic bezel. Below are examples of black on black and gray on white. Gray also looks good on bisque or almond.

Step 4. Re-install Bezel on Oven

Re-attach control board to bezel, plug-in new keypad. Re-attach bezel to oven frame. Done!
