Ruthann March 06, 2018 for Model Number 3868VVD My 1997 Magic Chef oven will only heat to 190 degrees and I suspect the bottom heating element may be at fault. When quickly touched it doesn't seem anywhere near 350 degrees, which the oven is set to heat for.
1 Answer Hello RuthAnn, You will need to test the element to see if it is open or if it reads the correct resistance. You will also need to check for proper power, (240Vac), to the unit. If all tests good, the relay on the board 12001603 is the likely issue. I'm sorry but this part has been discontinued by the manufacturer and no satisfactory substitutions have been provided. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Read More...
Cassie January 06, 2018 for Model Number GE PB68soh2 On Christmas Eve we turned on our electric oven to make cookies for santa. We noticed a horrible greenish smoke coming from the oven and fire and sparks by the bottom element. We shut it all down and got replacements elements for both top and bottom. While replacing them I noticed that the insulation surrounding both elements was charred. What could have caused this. Is the oven alright to continue using?
1 Answer Hello Cassie. That is fine. It is from the heat of the elements. Insulation will do that. You should be fine to use the unit. Thank you. Read More...
Scott N November 14, 2016 for Model Number CRE9400BCW What size and where can I order the wire connector for the baking element on a cre9400bcw range. It looks like it's a female flag connector but I'm not sure what gauge.
Gail August 07, 2016 for Model Number 3510PRW My lower baking element suddenly stopped working. also had to lower temp setting on dial, because it was to warm in past year. noticed a dead spot on element last I used it over a month ago. Thank You
Shaun June 28, 2016 for Model Number MER1140AAW Im not sure what the problem is, but when i turn on my over on the lowest setting it dont stop getting hot. Everything i put in the over will be burned up in a matter of seconds. Do you know what the problem may be?
1 Answer Hello Shaun. You will need to check and see if the temp sensor is good. If so, you will need to order and replace the control board on 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...

1 Answer Linwood, The correct model number for your unit is WCS246MO. The part number for the bake element is K1506072.
