Peter March 16, 2014 for Model Number Thermador RDDS30V I have a thermador RDDS30V oven/range. Oven won't heat up. I've pulled the bake element and checked its continuity, it's ok (~22 ohms resistance). Thermostat works fine. Broiler works fine. From this, I'm pretty sure it's not the overheat relay otherwise the broiler wouldn't work. Is there another over temp relay or something just on the bake circuit that would be keeping the bake element from working. I can hear the main relay engage when the oven is turned to bake and the controller indicates that bake cycle is 'on'.
1 Answer Peter, You will still want to check the relay to make sure that there is 240 vac when in the bake cycle. Even though the relay may click does not always mean that the relay is good. There would not be another temp relay that would cause the issue. Read More...
Phil B October 09, 2012 for Model Number Thermador RES30RS Problem: broken heating element (in two pieces). I have the replacement part. All videos and instructions say to: 1. Turn off power 2. Unscrew screws that hold element to back wall of oven. 3. Gently pull heating element away from wall...wires it is hooked into will also come out., 4. Unhook from wires, replace, put everything back as it was. HOWEVER ! For me, element will only pull out an inch or tow from back oven wall...then halts. Will pull out no further. Not as far as wires appearing. How do I do this? Thanks much, Phil
1 Answer Hello Phil. Wiggle the element up and down and if it still will not, you will need to remove the back panel of the oven to access the wires and replace the element. Usually, this is not the case and the terminals on the element is catching the housing and preventing it from coming out. This should clear if moved up and down. Read More...
Ed June 03, 2012 I have a 40+ year old Thermador wall oven that needs a new bake element. The old bake element was secured to the wires at both points using a small screw instead of the more modern sheath-style connectors. Is there a way to adapt a new element to fit the old oven?
1 Answer Hello Ed, If you could get the model number, the bake element is possibly still available. The model number would still be necessary to get the original part number because this is the only way I can think of to match the wattage of the old and the available elements. Without matching the wattages, the bake temperatures wouldn't correlate with the control settings. Read More...
David M. September 28, 2011 for Model Number thermador rdds30 The heating element on the bottom of the oven is broken. If I order the new part how do I install it?
1 Answer Hello David. You will need to disconnect the power to the unit. Then, remove the screws securing the element 00367646 and pull the element forward. Remove the wires going to the element, and install in reverse order with the new element. Hope this helps. Read More...
