Easy Bake
Answer Hello Easy Bake. test for 240 volts to the element. If it is there, element is bad. If the voltage is not there, but there is 240 to the unit, you will need to replace the control on the unit.You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

Are there 2 wires to connect? I can only see one.
Watercolormom for Model Number mer6770AAW
Answer Hello,
I really hate to be the bearer of bad news but if you only see one wire, you're going to have to remove the back panel to get the one that got away. You don't have to remove it completely, but you have to remove enough screws to get to the back side of the bake element. Be sure to discontinue power to the unit before removing the back and wear gloves and sleeves to avoid getting cut!
