Most of the time, when BOTH the oven bake and broil elements don't work, it is usually caused by an open thermal circuit breaker or fuse. When did your oven stop working? After a self-clean? This is the most common cause of one of these thermal fuses opening. Usually this device is located on the back of the oven. A few of them are manually-resettable; but most of them are one-shot thermal cut-out devices (thermal fuses) which have to be replaced once they have been triggered.

Testimonial: "Thanks for your help! Our broiler and oven quit working when we pulled the range out to clean behind it. When we put it back into place they had stopped working. It was just slid out of place and then back in (no excess force, etc.). I don't see any fuses. Exactly what part do you think would have to be replaced if the fuses have been triggered? The control board? Thanks for the advice."

    Notice i prefaced my answer with "Most of the time..." Okay, I did a little more research on your model number, and it appears that your range does NOT have any thermal fuses or cut-off devices. Which means that overheating protection is built into the EOC (Electronic Oven Control), so that is probably what will need to be replaced. But check 1 thing before you do. Use an ohmmeter and measure the resistance of the temperature sensor (temp probe) at room temp. It should be around 1080 to 1100 ohms. (Make sure to turn off power and disconnect the connector to measure it. If it's way off, then that is your problem, instead of the EOC.

SOURCE: Electric Oven not getting hot enough

Sir, I think the top oelement is for broiling ONLY. It should not turn on when baking. The clicking may be the oven heating up.
How far apart were the oven temp instrument and the digital?
Don't expect them to match...they are inaccurate.

1. Heat water until it boils. Place digital therm in boiling water until it comes up to 212deg. If it is not at 212 in boiling water, record the error.(this gives a rough calibration to the digital)
2 Turn on oven, set to 350 deg, place digital therm on rack. Wait until oven reaches 350 (on stove) and read the digital. Note the difference between the two

SOURCE: Whirlpool electric range model # RF261PXSQ oven not heating

I'm afraid you may have a blown Electronic Oven Control (EOC) board. The EOC controls all the functions of the oven. The surface elements are controlled by individual infinite switches behind each control knob.. That's why the surface elements all work, but the oven does not. A replacement EOC can be purchased on line at searspartsdirect.com. Just type in your COMPLETE model number and you will find it under the "Control Panel Parts" heading as item number 12. There are several listed, based upon the color you need (White, Biscuit, and Black). This is a very simple repair that any do-it-yourselfer can accomplish if you wish to perform this on your own. All you have to do is UNPLUG the appliance and remove the back panel of the console to access.

Before assuming the EOC is defective, however, inspect the board to see if it has a fuse on it. I do not have a wiring diagram to confirm. Some of these boards do have fuses and that's all that it may take to repair it. However, if the board shows signs of burned components, replace it. NOTE: Check for any loose connectors to the board as well.

I hope you find this information helpful. Let me know if you have questions and/or require additional assistance.

SOURCE: Inglis electric freestanding range model #IRE3230- Oven no longer working

If the oven and the electric panel no longer work, this is an electronic problem. The burners and the oven light will not be effected, nor will the fuses. The electronics card will need to be replaced by an appliance technician.

Amana AGR5735QDS. Bake/Broil don't work, Clean/burners do work

Hello- Most problems with todays ranges start after 'self clean', or as most techs call it- 'self destruct'. If control functions normally, the temp can be run up manually by holding button down until it reaches 500deg., then holding it down until it stops and reads 0 or +/- 5,10, etc. This is a temp adj. mode. If it won't adj. or work at all, control is bad. If it works, then twin ignitor failures are not unheard of. Resistance across either ignitor should be above 4 ohms., if not, they have failed. Avoid 'self clean'. Tears electronics up and wastes energy. Use drip pans and try to forsee boil overs. Grandma figured it out a long time ago. Hope this helps. Thanks- ED

Kenmore electric range - oven temp low and takes forever to heat

if lower element tests open with continuity meter then it for sure is bad. i would also check the wire ends that connect to the element and/or the control board, they could have loosened allowing a bad connection and low voltage to elementor burnt off.. most ovens do not use the broil element at all during the bake cycle, only during the broil cycle.. some however do utilize the broil element during baking, but at a lower wattage or something..
best of luck,
ttfn

Won't bake, but all else works

Swap the broil and bake ignitors(they are both the same) see if the bake works. If the oven bake works then you need only replace the ignitor. If it does not then I would say you should check the valve for continuity. If open, bad gas valve. If continuity is detected, bad oven control.

Kenmore 9114554590 will not bake or broil

The clock/display panel is faulty. There are a few relays on the display that have to work. If the clock is just flashing once with each keypress the the relays are not functioning. The clock/diplay will need to be replaced

Digital Control (for oven temp and clock adjustment) not working

Puzzeled, usually when there is a stuck or shorted keypad there will be an error code. First let's see if we can tell if we are in Centigrade or Ferenhiet. Press the bake and broil button together for 2 or 3 seconds. SF should appear in the display. Press the broil pad again and C or F will be displayed. Toggle to F and press start. See if that was the problem. If not try to increase the speed of the + and - keypads. Press bake and broil together for 2 seconds until SF displays. Press the + keypad increase the speed of the control. It should toggle from 1 to 5, 5 being the fastest. Press start and see if that works. If niether works..then have someone remove the keypad ribbon cable from the control board and clean the ends with an eraser. See if that solves the issue...Catriver..post back and let me know.
