Pika for Model Number 66595775891 Hi, for the past year or so my oven temp has been too low and getting worse. When pre-heating to 350 the temp is only about 280 according to oven thermometer after 10 minutes. Self clean ran properly but did not improve the situation. Both the broil and bake elements (top and bottom) glow orange with no breaks or dark spots. Is replacing this sensor the next logical step?
Answer Pika, How accurate is your oven thermometer ? The oven temperature is a good Idea if the oven temperature is consistently higher or lower than the selected temperature, or never reaches a higher temperature. I would not expect your range to reach 350 dgrs. in 10 minutes, more like 15 to 20 minutes is more reasonable. At 280 dgrs in 10 minutes, your oven would be "temperred" but not properly pre heated and ready to maintain the set temperature. Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
