 Maytag Oven

We have a Maytag electric wall oven that the timer/clock/oven control gizmo seems to have gone kaput. It is still lighted but the numbers arent readable and the control buttons do nothing. I checked the internet and found control units from probably three or four different places ranging from 230-250.00, will they be identical no matter who I'd order one from or should I find a Maytag dealer? The oven is 13-14 yrs. old, a new one is 600-1400.00, should I buy a timer or maybe get a new one?

 Maytag Oven

Ok, a couple options here. Agreed Maytag had a reputation for quality going way back, I don't think we have an appliance or laundry machine that isn't Maytag. So most likely I'll order a control unit.
The simple on/off switch is the most reliable and by far the most economical solution, BBBUUTTT, the Mrs. has gotten too used to the beep beep, blink blink, ding ding, thingys. She uses the wall oven over the regular stove oven probably 90% of the time so getting it fixed would probably have me some cookies a lot sooner.
OK, now EW. I had almost made a New Years resolution to not pick on you quite so much, oh well you pick a side and we'll argue about something.

Thanks for the tip. I haven't did anything yet, just too many other things right now, another family Christmas even yet today. I will start from the breaker panel and work my way to the control unit with a volt meter. Thanks. Frank.

The light intensity of the caracters doesn't change, they all look like square cornered "8's". The little red words, like on, off, bake, etc are all lighted, nothing blinks. The control touch pad buttons for on, off, temp control, etc. do nothing.
Murf;
Yes we do still have a guy who will do that sort of thing mainly just as a challenge to himself. And he does repair Maytags so he sits in his rocking chair a lot, but I don't think he has a blue cap.
I think the Mrs. is going to be gone Tuesday so I'll tear into it. Kill or cure.
