SOURCE: GE Oven bake element not work
It sounds like a problem with the selector switch. You have to remove the back panel to get to the back of the switch in the head unit, and find what wire goes from there to the bake element. With a meter set on 240ACV, or whichever setting is on yours that's HIGHER than that i.e. 400ACV, with the red probe on the terminal and the black one going to ground, see if you are getting 210-240 through it. If so, then it's either a faulty neutral wire connection (the other wire coming out of the element) or the selector switch. Hope this helps.

Always check your breakers first (220v breaker has 2 legs, be sure both sides of the breaker are in the solid on position) and plug. The next step will be to verify voltage to the element, if it has 220v then the element will have to be replaced if it doesn't then you'll have to find the contactswitch for the element. High amperage components such as oven elements tend to be tough on contact surfaces in switches , carbon deposits build up and the contact fails, You must find the failure in the circuit and replace the faulty component.

oh bleep, right? well, if you're lucky this will get you going again. 1. disconnect power to range. 2. remove back metal cover just above range power cord (usually 5 quarter inch hex screws) 3. look for burnt off wire leading to/from bake element. If yes, 4. strip ends of broken wire and splice with ceramic wire nut if no 4. bad news. replace ERC (electronic range control) you fried something on the board. It's got the clock display and all the electronics behind it.
SOURCE: Oven top element does not come on when baking
the top element is for broil only. if you have convection mode try that
SOURCE: bake or broil elements won't work.
Have you checked the main breaker or fuse for the stove? (lucky you did not get shocked.)
Do you have power to the stove elements?
If you have power to the stove elements, then I would look for a burned out wire in the path from the controls to the element. First place to start would be at the actual connection to the elements.
And glad to see you are still with us to ask this question. (((SMILE)))
