Vintage, eh? Man do I ever feel old.

When I first started as an appliance service technician, I probably worked on 4-5 of these Amana Touchmatic IIs every week. Most the time it was the keypad locked up... you could unplug the oven for a minute or two and then plug it back in.

Bingo! Fixed! ...and Randy the service man is $40 richer.

Gas was under a buck a gallon then too.
