We have a unique cabinet situation with very close drawer/ doors etc. so repair would be preferred. Unfortunately our Thermodor model SC272ZS circa 2003 upper oven quit heating after I used auto clean. Error code F5 The part is no longer available. Any feedback on getting parts rebuilt (control module?) vs just get on the waitlist for 8-12 months for a new oven?
Good question. Thermador doesn’t even offer the 27″ size anymore. Due to its age, there are no longer parts, and places to rebuild the panels have become almost nonexistent. I think even if fixed, you will be running into newer problems down the road. I would look at the GE profile or Cafe lineup as they make many 27″ ovens that fit almost all existing cutouts. These ovens feature so much new technology like air fry and built-in recipe centers I think you will find these useful. I know you have a dimension issue, but sooner or later, you need to address it. Now is the time.
Thank you, I had orginally found a reccomendation for the Bosch 800HBN8651UC: but the website says it is unavailable.:( I liked the idea of Bosch because we have another Bosch applicance. I think the 500 version is far outside the dimensions. I’ll try to source a schematic drawing for the GE. I get the cabinet fit compensation, but we have a contemporary home and every cabinet edge is lined up with every other cabinet edge…it’s nice but complicated. Kind regards and I’m grateful for your help!
