    Spectra oven XL44 not gitten hot

  • has2850 May 11, 2010

    The problem started last week with the arcing of the lower baking coil of our July 1979 combination (micro & oven model J - KP97G serial MF980755M)GE oven... I replaced the same lower coil that I previously successfully replaced in 2001. Except this time, only the upper coil functions in the Bake mode although the oven Clean mode works great. I just replaced the oven switch WB22X5123 as recommended in lieu that there was no connection being made between the 2 'Bake' terminals and no visible wire connection problem was visible. I tested the new coil to the normal 17.8 ohms although the power across the lower coil terminals was only about 40 volts...The thermastat unit contacts looked ok and I cleaned the copper contacts. (just a note that we have not had a continuous red light on the bake light for some time and we have adjusted the oven temp dial to 50 degrees warmer than desired with success for years...) We would like to continue using our current oven for at least 5 years when we may replace some of our kitchen appliances. Please help. Thank You.

Maytag Oven. The bake do not heat, the broil is ok. what is the problem ?

Look at the wiring diagram... The manual reset Thermal Limiter Switch (part number 74008715), located on the lower rear insulation retainer can keep both elements from working, not one at a time... I would inspect the back of the bake relay for a burnt/failing solder joint. Swapping the BAKE and BROIL leads is an acceptable test, but if you put the bake leads on the broil and still get no heat: check the control relay. If the broil leads will not heat the bake element, you have a bad element or bad connection. Be sure to do all testing of the elements with at least one wire detached so as not to red a back circuit.

How do I check heating elements?

The bake element
is the heating element that is found at the bottom of the oven. Most electric ovens use both the bake element and the broil element in a bake cycle, with the bake element performing 90% of the heating. If the bake element isn't working, the oven may not heat. To help determine if the bake element is defective you should first do a visual check. If the element is blistered or separated then it should be replaced. If the element appears to look normal, then turn the oven on to a bake function for a minute and then turn it off.

Check the element for signs of heating and if it is still cold then it may be defective. Disconnect the power and then remove the back panel. First check the wires as they may have become loose or corroded. If the element appears to be fine visually, test it for continuity with a multi-meter. ( by placing the each of the meter prongs on each end of the heater element connectors) If the element is burned or no longer has continuity, it will need to be replaced.
