Neither the top burners nor the oven will heat up. The clock and the oven heating timer both work so it does not appear to be a power issue. I have removed the burner coils and put them back in and still no luck with getting any heat. Any suggestions on what could be the issue?
Hoops, it almost sounds like you lost a leg of power, L2. L1 is sending power to the board but but it's not making the loop. Too much of a coencidence that the burners and oven are not working. Check the cord connection to the oven. You should have 220V across the 2 outer terminals. 120V from each end to center terminal. Let me know what you find. Catriver.
Good work hoops, the fact that you lost both the top burners and oven led me to believe you lost a leg of the 220V. The fact that the control was still working verified that L1 or the first leg was still there. The control operates at 120V. L2 comes into play when the surface burners or oven is on. My guess is that you have a loose connection in the outlet itself. When you repluged the oven in, you made contact again and the range worked. Anyway, glad you fixed the deal, have the lanlord check the outlet the next time this deal happens.. Merry Christmas , Catriver.

Hey Catriver,
I took your advice and checked the power, first at the outlet then at the end of the cord where it connects to the oven after pluggin the oven back in. Oddly enough I found that I had power at both with the proper voltage you noted! I tried the burners and the oven and found that both were now working. Essentially the only thing I did was unplug the oven and plug it back in. Any thoughts as to why the heating elements would have suddenly stopped working but the clock and timers were still working? Iis it possible I may have an issue that should be checked out by an electrician?
I really appreciated the feedback because it helped alot and paid 2 dividends - I got a new volt meter in order to check for the voltage you advised and I did not have to call my landlord and have the electrician find there was nothing wrong.
my stove top and oven will not heat up after I lost power from a storm.The clock and oven timer are working as well as the burner lights.
