Parts needed for Modern Maid

[holtcl]

Looking for Modern Maid rheostats for left front eye (burner) and oven. Steve indicates he no longer has source. This is the original oven and cook top in a 53MY.

I have had good luck with All Brands.
(www.allbrandonline.com) They also have several stores that you can call. Good luck

I posted my old unit here for parts a couple of years ago but I got no takers. It ended up going into the dumpster. Sorry.

In the event that we have to go the replacement direction, what did you replace your unit with, and were you able to do it yourself? Is there a previous post here you can refer us to re: the process/installation?

Here is how we started:

It ended up being a pretty extensive galley remodel with new solid-surface countertop overlays. Here are some pics from near the end of the work. I still have a few things to do this winter, but I'll get pics of the final product then:

very nice. trying to avoid the total galley remodel at this time but at some point I would at least like to get new formica installed, and go from a double to a single basin sink. We did refinish the wood in the entire galley and that has made a major difference in the way it looks.

Update:

Tried the following sources and was able to get a control for a cooktop burner (apparently last one in captivity), but have been unable to locate oven parts, specifically the bake element and thermostat. Tried these sources:

-Allbrand
-Slane Marine
-Sams
-AP Wagner (they had the cooktop part and were most helpful)
-Repairclinic.com
-When an Annapolis shop told me to try Sears yesterday, I almost cried!

If anyone knows of any sources, or has a 'retired' unit out there, would love to know about it. We're about to go and rob one from Mike P's boat as a last resort- Guess the real last resort will be to remodel the galley like Sky did- as the Admiral I should be hoping for that outcome, but really just trying to get down the road a bit before tearing up the galley.

Thanksgiving is coming, please help

Here is a nice family owned place that may be able to get a replacement part for you.

I am sure the part was not only used on the modern maid since the volume would not be enough to develop a part for it.

Thanks so much for your helpful replies! Will give them a try...
