My guess is the element in the back of the oven took that moment to die. You will have to get an appliance engineer or good DIY electrician to check the supply to the element to be sure. While you have it out you can write down the serial numbers etc off the label on the back. You will need them to purchase a new element. Just go online to an appliance spares specialist.
I understand you've recently replaced the elements on your Frigidaire oven and that it is still not working. May I have your model number please? The serial tag, which lists your model number, is normally located in the storage drawer, on the right side if you have a range. If you own a wall-oven please check the front of the oven, on the left side, as you open the door. Also, think about what may have happened prior to this occurrence. For instance, did you notice any strange functions or any other error codes prior to this issue? With this information I can better determine what may be causing the issue at hand. Thank you! - Z
All stoves have a gas shut off valve. Make sure your gas dryer still works because you paid your gas bill. Yours might be located under the stove or in the basement.
was you cooktop in good working order prior to your counters being installed? How old is it? If so i would suggest you get the electrician back who re-installed it & get him to check it out. Could be a loose wire.
First, please don't do your own electrical work if you are unsure about what you're doing. It's worth it to hire an electrician.
Not sure what the blue and yellow wires could be. The others are standard 220V colors, but that doesn't mean that they are connected the standard way in the panel. If you know how to remove the panel cover and look at the breakers, make sure you do that before you assume anything. If you don't know how, call an electrician.
Assuming the blue and yellow are no longer needed, and that the other four are wired properly, you should disconnect the blue and yellow wires on both ends and remove them if possible. If you can't remove them, you should insulate both ends and mark them as being disconnected.
if it is an old stove i would say have it serviced/checked over. if it is a newer stove i am guessing the circuit breaker predates it and is rated for the old stove therefore you will need to have a larger circuit breaker installed (by a licenced electrician)
