Had a Viking range thermostat throw a fit at a house in Oak Park last Tuesday

Was out on a service call for a Viking range that had the oven running 75 degrees hot, ended up spending 3 hours chasing a bad thermostat that looked fine on the multimeter. The homeowner stood over my shoulder the whole time asking if I was sure it wasn't the igniter. Any of you guys dealt with these digital thermostats that test good cold but fail once they heat up?

Buddy of mine had the exact same thing happen with a Wolf range last month...

Man I feel that, my Wolf rangetop has been acting up too - guess that's what I get for buying the fancy stuff just to impress people who never even come over.
