Nana October 12, 2013 for Model Number fefl88aca My oven is not working on bake or conv bake( top or bottom element) but top is working on broil. Before I order replacement elements would like to know if this is the problem.
1 Answer Nana, You will want to access the control board and test from L2 to Bake with the unit set for bake. If there is 240 vac then the control board is faulty and would need to be replaced. Read More...
Bear T. August 01, 2013 for Model Number Kenmore 790.92421302 Oven and Broiler both stopped working. Have 240 volts at bake and broil connections on board to L1. ran tests on the elements and both have continuity. Thought it was strange for both to go out at same time but checked anyway. I don't know how to test probe. Any suggestions. Thank You Bear
1 Answer Bear, The oven temperature sensor 316233903 should have a resistance of less than 1100 ohms at room temperature, and it's best to test the resistance at the connector on the ERC/Control board, that way you test the complete circuit wiring and all. Would expect a failure/error code if the sensor were at fault. Since it seems you have voltage at the clock, you'll need to check voltage at the element(s) Remove power, disconnect both wires from the element, restore power, program a bake mode and temperature, then check the end of each wire terminal to chassis ground, you should have 120 VAC , on each check. The wire without the voltage is the circuit and wire to check back to the control. With both elements inoperable, it's most likely an L2 power supply or relay that is not closed and supplying power to one side of the elements. These are live voltage checks, so be careful.

Mike1611 February 21, 2013 for Model Number FEF336ECE Hello, I have Frigidaire electric range and was wondering if anyone has any idea what might be the solution to my problem. The surface works fine as well as the digital display. The problem is with the oven. There are metal coils on the bottom and top that usually glow red and heat the oven when in use, however they no longer work. No matter what setting I attempt to set, they just do not work. I am quite handy with household repairs, but would like some insight before I pull the oven out and take it apart. Thank you in advance!
1 Answer Hello Mike. You need to check and see if the control board 5304518660 is sending power to the elements. If not, you will need to order and replace the board in the unit. 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...
Virgil S February 18, 2013 for Model Number 790.92322301 My question is: After a pop, nothing was working on my oven (top burners worked)so I replaced the control board. Everything came on, clock, pre-heat and bake lights, and broiler element. But, the bake element did not work. So I replaced the element. Still did not work. Then took the probe to a Sears store and had it checked, and it was good. So I don't know what my next step should be.
1 Answer Hello Virgil, You will need to check wiring from the L2 supply at the terminal block to the element and from element to the control board for possible damaged wires. If you have a multimeter you can do a continuity check on the wires to make sure that they have continuity. If they do not have continuity then there is a problem with wire. Read More...
Kerry W January 17, 2013 for Model Number GLEF378CSB When I try to use my oven the pre heat light and oven light both come one but the oven does not heat up at all. I cant see anything visually wrong with the heating element.. Could it be bad or something else??
1 Answer Hello Kerry, You will want to check to make sure that you are getting 240 vac from bake to L1 on the control board. If you are not getting 240vac then you would need to replace control board 316207529. Read More...
Brenda Bunch August 29, 2012 This is a continuation of my first question about the oven element not going off...so you're saying that the CLOCK is making the element (inside the oven) stay on? The clock and the timer and the degrees read-out work fine! The element in the oven will not go off...even if I hit the CLEAR/OFF button.
1 Answer Hello Brenda. The clock has the relay which sends power to the element made onto it. If you have to kill the power to turn off the element, it is not the element, but the clock that is bad on the unit. You will need to replace the clock to repair the unit. Read More...
Brenda B August 28, 2012 for Model Number FEFL77ASE After 20 minutes of 350 baking, my oven element came on. It then burned my muffins. It will not go off until I turn off the entire range at the circuit breaker box/panel. The display where the clock/temp are displayed reads "F1". The manual suggests turning the range off and restarting it, which we have done. Doesn't help.
1 Answer Hello Brenda. Based on the information you provided, the clock 316207527 is bad and will need to be replaced. Read More...
Jim R. January 10, 2012 for Model Number GLEF378CQB The EOC arcked open on our oven. The leads on the circuit board are completely burnt off. Prior to replacing the EOC I would like to know if a bad element could cause problem. I really don't want to plug in a new EOC and have it go up in a flash as soon as power is applied. I put an ohn meter across each disconnected element an got 13.6 ohms for the broiler element and 15.7 ohms for the baking element. I would like to know if these are the normal values before I proceed. Thanks!
1 Answer Hello Jim. Based on the readings you got, the elements should be good in the unit. It sounds like the EOC 316207529 is bad and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps. Read More...
Rhonda June 13, 2011 for Model Number 79099112301 In replacing part # ap2126365-oven element, you unscrew the screws holding it, but how are the wires disconnected?
1 Answer Hello Rhonda. The wires for the bake element 316202200, pull off the terminals. Hope this helps. Read More...
Diane March 25, 2011 for Model Number GLEF378AQB The bake element burned into. How do I replace this?
2 Answers Hello Diane! Your bake element is 316202200. It looks like this part plugs into the terminal in the back wall of the oven. Remove power to the range. Unplug the old element and remove any wires and then install the new element and wiring. Supply power back to the range and test. Hope this helps! Read More...
