Set the Kitchen Aid gas range and oven to self clean today.
After complete, (or sometime during) the range lost power.
All circuit breakers have been checked and none are tripped.
The range is now locked and receiving no electric power.
In addition, a couple of kitchen outlets are now also without power. One has GFI outlet, which has also been checked.
No other electrical problems in the house. Ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Hello indyhomeowner and Welcome to the Do It Yourself Web Site and to the Gas Appliances topic.
If there is electrical power at the wall outlet and the appliance has none internally, might have blown a fuse. Look for one on the appliance.
If there is no electrical power at the wall outlet where the appliance is plugged into, that's the likely problem. Test wall outlet for electrical power using a lamp with a known good light bulb.
There shouldn't be any GFI in the circuit where stove is plugged into in the first place. Not a good idea nor recommended,....:thumbdn: IMO.
Try this also. Use a heavy duty electric extension cord. Plug extension cord into a known good outlet without a GFI. Then plug appliance into extension cord and note the results.
If power is present, outlet appliance was plugged into has no power. If still no power to appliance, appliance circuitry has an internal problem, short, fuse blown or circuit board burned out....:eek:....or....????....:confused:
Unable to determine what the exact possible problem might be based upon reading your posted question.....:confused:
Retail parts dealers and appliances parts stores can also help determine what the possible problem may be based upon that specific brand and model. Bring the make, model and serial numbers. Dealers and appliances parts stores are listed in the phone book.
Cautionary Reminder Note:
Before attempting any repairs, be sure to unplug the appliance from the wall receptacle power source first.
