Randy,
I have lost track of what you have tried...  Have you run the power cord 
of this device through an FT240-31 ferrite, with 6 or 7 turns of power 
cable through the cores?

73, and thanks,
Dave (NK7Z)

BUT, we bought it last August when we started the complete Reno-gut-job on this house and it sat in the box for months. Lowe’s will not return it and I don’t even want to try and explain why and how it is ‘broken’ to them.

All have some sort of touch interface but the oven is the only affected appliance. I would welcome the dishwasher starting and doing the dishes on their own!  HI HI
