Common Symptoms
- Oven does not heat for bake
- Baking is uneven or takes unusually long
- Oven temperature is lower than expected during baking
- Visible holes, blisters, or burn-through on the element
Check Before Replacing
- With the oven cool and power disconnected, visually inspect the element for holes, blisters, burn-through, or other visible damage.
- Confirm that the bake element’s terminal connections and nearby wiring are not visibly loose, scorched, or damaged; do not handle wiring while energized.
- If using a multimeter, disconnect appliance power and isolate the element wiring before checking the element for continuity; an open circuit indicates the element itself is defective, but continuity does not by itself prove the complete heating circuit is good.
Pro Tip
A bake element can fail visibly, but a visual inspection alone is not conclusive; an isolated continuity check is a useful additional check when performed with power disconnected.
