A common problem on ovens and ranges with the digital display is that the display starts to go dim after a while. It usually starts gradually and gets progressively dimmer until you can barely see it. You have two choices of repair tactics:
1. Replace the electronic control board, typical cost: $250. And there's no guarantee that the display won't dim again in a another couple of years.
An analog clock that's easy to read and to set (and that has one of the most pleasant alarms that will still wake you up), the Riki is ideal for light sleepers who want to banish electronic. If you have the digital 4-button (SET, +, ALM, SNZ) model clock, you may use the following instructions to set your clock. If you have a different model, please refer to the manual. Please note that the ONLY function you need to program is the time zone if you do not live in the Eastern time zone.

2. Replace the capacitors on the control board, typical cost: $10. And you gotta be able to solder on printed circuit boards.
Here's the inside scoop on what's happening. The digital display is powered by very specific DC drive voltages. Theses voltages are created by a transformer and stabilized by capacitors, all of which are located on the control board. Most of these capacitors are only rated to a working temperature of 220˚F. Well, it don't take a brain surgeon, like yours so very frikkin' truly, to realize that over time the heat will reduce the capacitor's ability to capacitate thus lowering the drive voltage and dimming the display. Awwite, that's all the theory we need to know so let's get into the generic strategery of this repair…
Dim Digital Alarm Clock
Digital Clock in Windows Forms Clock. 27 Apr 2021 / 10 minutes to read. The DigitalClock is implemented as an extension to the existing Clock control in the UI controls, but offers a richer UI experience than the existing clock and is capable of displaying the time as digital text.
The specifics will vary with the exact layout and composition of the control board you're working on but, generally, the flow goes like this:
1. Kill power to the unit.
2. Disassemble whatever you need to to get at the control board.
3. Locate the capacitors on the control board. Typically, there are three but, again, go with what you see. They'll look something like this:
4. Make a list of the capacitors, noting the capacitance, working voltage, and temperature rating printed on each capacitor.
5. Go to your local Radio Shack and buy the replacement caps. It's OK for the replacements to have a higher working voltage than the original but not lower. Try to buy the ones with the highest temperature rating you can get. And match the capacitance rating (usually given in micro-farads, μf) as close as you can to the original.
6. Unsolder the old caps and solder in the new one – soldering help here. Be careful to observe the correct polarity when installing the new caps!
Now go pop yourself a cold brewski and get me one while you're at it. Mucho domos!
