Maytag Electric Stove Repair Question?

Have a Maytag Gemini electric stove not over 3 years old. About a year after purchase the "On Indicator" light will not turn off when all burners/ovens are off. It doesn't affect the operation of the stove, but I would like fix it if it doesn't require replacing the pc board. Does anyone know what the problem might be? I am very knowledgeable in electrical/electronics and have an exceptional mechanical background. Don't want to spend a lot of money just for a light staying on.

    If the elements are controlled by separate switches, you need to replace one switch. The internal contact the feeds the pilot "on" lamp is welded together. You can find out which switch is bad by disconnecting the pilot lamp wires one by one until you find the bad switch.
