Rose for Model Number FEB398CESC I have a double oven. Daughter loves to bake some time we use both but mainly one and rotate top and bottom. Started with the oven taking forever to get to set temp. Then the top oven quit heating when I was making dinner. Bottom still worked. week later while daughter making cookies the bottom quit. You can turn it on both bake and broil it says pre heat like normal but nothing happens. no heat on either setting. its like 10 years old never had to anything with it. Thank you
Answer Hello Rose, You will want to check to make sure that the thermal switches have not tripped. The thermals would be located on the back of the unit by where the terminals are for the bake and broil. Check continuity of the switches and if there is no continuity then push red button, release and check continiuty. If still no continuity then the thermals are bad and need replaced. If they check good you will also want to do a resistance check on the oven sensors. They should read about 1090 ohms. If they do not read this at room temp then you will need to replace the sensors. You will also want to check voltage to the elements. With unit in bake mode you should have 240 vac to the elements. If no power then the control is bad and if there is power then the elements are bad. 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 Read More...
