Before replacing the element, do a quick visual inspection. Open the oven, look at the bake element closely. A burned-through element will have a visible break, hole, blister, or deformed section in the metal sheath. This is the most obvious sign of failure and confirms the element needs replacement without any testing.If there's no visible damage, test with a multimeter. Disconnect power, disconnect one wire from the element, and measure resistance across the two element terminals. A good bake element typically reads 20–50 ohms (varies by wattage). An open reading (OL / infinity) means the internal wire is broken — the element is dead. A very low reading (near 0 ohms) means the element is shorted — replace immediately.Inspect the wire connectors and terminals. If the old element's terminal ends are blackened or melted, the wire connectors on the oven side are likely damaged too. A burned connector creates high resistance, which generates more heat, which burns the connector further — a progressive failure cycle. Replace damaged connectors with new high-temperature spade connectors rated for 240V oven use. Don't reuse melted connectors — they'll burn out again quickly.If the oven still won't heat after replacing the element: check the temperature sensor (a thin metal probe inside the oven cavity, usually at the top rear). A failed sensor can't report temperature to the control board, so the board won't energize the element. Test the sensor with a multimeter — it should read approximately 1,080–1,100 ohms at room temperature. Also check for a blown thermal fuse (some LG models have a thermal fuse in the element circuit).
