Eben for Model Number Maytag MER5730AAA When I turn on the oven the preheat light turns on then quickly off and the bottom heating element wont heat the oven at all. The broiler works. I replaced the bottom heating element but it is still doing the same thing.
Answer Hello Eben, You should test the bake circuit of unit. First thing to do, using multi-meter check for line voltage of 120vac across L1 and Bake on control board. If there is voltage then you would need to replace Control WP12001628. If there is no voltage then you would want to check the bake element with turned on for 240vac. If no voltage then you will want to check the wiring to the element. 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...
