Benjamin A Crofton , MD December 27, 2015 Appliance: KitchenAid 30" Free-Standing Designer Style Convection Oven KERC608LSS0 Kitchenaid Range Kerc608lss0: Bake element wouldn't heat. How to replace Board, Power. The hidden bake element accessed from the side of the oven was clearly done...not only did it not test for continuity, but when I removed it, there was a clean break where it had failed. Of course I replaced that first. Though my thermal cutoff tested fine for continuity, the element still wouldn't heat when I initiated bake. I could hear a click when the relay was triggered by the control board up top. Thanks to the 365 day return policy, I decided it was worth my while to try the $170 relay (power) board situated in the side near the bake element rather than buy a $800 oven. Mission accomplished. 3 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 1-2 hours
