Depending on how the element blew, in some cases it will also ruin the Electronic Oven Control (EOC) board. This is your clock assembly. The EOC controls all the oven functions on electric ranges. There are separate relay controlled circuits on the board that control the BAKE and BROIL functions. The EOC will still display the time and the broiler may still work, but the bake feature will not. My bet, it the relay for the bake element, or a component in the bake circuit is blown. There should be a schematic diagram located inside the operator console, or on the back of the range for assistance in troubleshooting. I would recommend you inspect the EOC for any burned components or wires.

Now...there is a remote possibility you've purchased a bad element (it does happen). A resistance check from terminal to terminal should yield a high resistance in the K ohms range. Next, check the resistance between one terminal and the outer shield of the element. You should get an infinite reading. Anything else, you probably have an element that is shorted.

I hope this information is helpful to you in some way. If you have questions please let me know.

My top oven won't reach temperature. Convection and broil work, bake doesn't. Over a year ago I did a self clean...hasn't worked since. I really need it to work especially with Thanksgiving next week.

It does sound like the element may be bad. The control will cycle the bake and broil elements to even the heat in the oven. if the element is out the oven won't heat well.

Oven made pop noise now won t heat

It sounds like the control board blew out. I have had a couple of these just blow like that lately. The bake and broil wont work. . Check for any bad wiring but the control board is most likely the culprit.

Frigidaire oven wont heat up but stovetop and digital all works

Hello angeleyez82 - The EOC (electronic oven control/control board) basically sends power to both the broil and bake elements. As long as the power supply to the range (240VAC) and wiring between the elements is correct, then typically only the element(s) or EOC could prevent the unit from heating. I hope this information helps to some degree.

Baking & broiling elements won't heat after baking element burned out and was replaced.

the surge from the original element burning out has destroyed the control board if you can't hear the relays on the board clicking when you power up the elements bake or broil then its either the low voltage side of the board,if you hear clicking then the relays are working but the contacts are burned out and can't pass the current to heat the oven or briol elements

Baking element replaced but still won't heat

you may have triped half your 220v breaker. (you should have shut it off when reparieng wire or it would have been live and zaped you) Or something in line with the wire that shorted blew out like a fuse in the range.

Oven doesn't work after replacing the bottom (baking) element

Will the clock control accept the bake and temperature request?
If so,
You will need to remove the rear panel of the range and test the bake element leads for 220 volts when the oven control is set to bake and is turned on.
