Common Symptoms
- Oven does not heat properly during Bake
- Oven heats slowly or fails to reach the selected temperature
- Uneven baking or roasting
- Visible blistering, holes, burn marks, or other damage on the element
Check Before Replacing
- Disconnect electrical power at the circuit breaker before inspection.
- With power disconnected, visually inspect the bake element for blisters, holes, cracks, burn marks, or separated sections.
- If qualified to use a multimeter, test the element for continuity with power disconnected; an open circuit indicates the element is defective.
- If the element appears intact, do not assume it is the cause; other oven controls, wiring, or power-supply components may also affect heating.
Pro Tip
A bake element normally glows red during operation; if it does not heat and shows an open circuit when tested with power disconnected, replacement is indicated.
