Jim S. March 07, 2013 for Model Number CER1140AAW Lower Bake Element does not get hot. I measured 27+ Ohms at the element and measured voltage going to it. ?????? Help!!
1 Answer Hello Jim. If you tested at the element, and there was 240 volts there, then you need to order and replace the element. If there was low voltage, then the control is most likely the issue with 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...

Carter H. August 31, 2012 for Model Number MER5770AAW Maytag Oven Range I was disconnecting the Bake element from the front of the unit and discovered that only one side of the element was connected. I took the back off and found the connector on the left side (facing from the front of the oven) was burnt off. So I took the wire off and went to the hardware store to see if I could purchase a new part. I could not get a part and the salesman said the only connectors he had were plastic where it crimps to the wire. He suggested an auto parts store. I did find connectors at the auto store but discovered after purchase they were silver and had plastic around them I tried it and the element did work. Now My question is with the plastic surrounding the connector which is silver, will it melt? Also, I discovered that the new connector was hot to the touch whereas the other connector on the opposite side was cool. Am I using something that is wrong? Please help.
1 Answer Hello Carter! You will need to use a high temp connector. Our part number is TJMA02875-1. Thanks! Read More...
Harry J. February 21, 2012 for Model Number MER57550AW The bottom heating element needs replacing. The element is not exposed, how is it removed?
1 Answer Hello Harry. You will need to pull the unit out and remove the back panel. Now you will see where the bake element WPW10276482 is mounted. Remove the wires and the screws and pull the unit out of the back of the oven. Install the new element in reverse order. Hope this helps. Read More...
Tommi K. October 31, 2011 I've ordered a new broiler element for my range. How do I replace it? Please give me a detailed description. Thank you.
1 Answer Hello Tommi. For the broil element WPW10310249, you will disconnect the power to the unit, and remove the screws securing the bracket and the element in the back wall. This is easier if you remove the oven racks. Then you will remove the element from the unit and remove the wires going to the element. Reinstall in reverse order with the new element. The bake element WP74010750 is installed the same way, but does not use a bracket to secure it. Hope this helps. Read More...
Val August 20, 2011 for Model Number mer5550aaq How do I disconennet the bake element part in order to connet a replacement if the tip (or one of the ends) of bake element burnt out?
1 Answer Hi Val. remove all power. Take the door off. Slide the drawer off (if equipped). Pull The unit out. Unhook the cord. Remove the back assy. Unhook the 2-wires on the element. Go to the front oven cavity area. Remove the racks. Remove the 2 -phillips screws that are inside the cavity holding the element screws in and pull out the element. Replace the element and put the screws in place. Go to the back of the unit and before hooking the wires, make sure the insulation covers the holes that the element went through so the heat dont escape and burn wires. The bake element is part # WP74010750. Thank You. Read More...
Rd May 02, 2011 for Model Number MER5770AAA I think top oven element is bad. Need to know how to trouble shoot this item. It does not get red when heating up. Can I check ohm resitance on this item for verification if bad?
1 Answer Hello RD. You can test the element to see if it is bad. It should read closed for continuity. If it is open, you will need to replace the broil element WP7406P218-60. You can test this with a multi-meter MA-DM1. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. Hope this helps. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
