Maytag Range MERS751BAS Element will not heat

The Surface Element is an OEM component for Whirlpool ranges. It is responsible for heating the cooktop surface to the desired temperature selected by the user. Made of durable metal coil construction, the element surface quickly distributes heat evenly across burners to boil, sauté or simmer foods effectively. 

Causes of a bad element includes baked-on grime or mineral buildup inhibiting heat transfer or damage due to the use of improper cookware that has cracked or warped the coils over time.

Symptoms of a bad element includes:

• Burners failing to heat up fully or taking a long time 
• Inconsistent or uneven heating across coils
• Hotspots or deadzones in cooking areas
• Visible damage like cracks or bends in coil construction

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, and Kenmore range models.

The Whirlpool Infinite Switch is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. Whirlpool electric ranges. This switch controls the multiple heat settings of the large element, allowing the user to select their desired cooking temperature. It is an important electrical component that regulates burner heating cycles.

Symptoms of a bad infinite switch include:

• The element not heating up adequately or failing to maintain temperature
• Inability to select or change heat settings on the
• Burner operates intermittently or fails to heat properly

Causes of a bad infinite switch can include failure over many heating cycles. The electrical contacts within the switch may become corroded or deteriorate from repeated exposure to cooktop temperatures and cooking residue.

It is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore electric range models.

This surface heating element is the electric heat source for a cooktop burner on an electric range. Replacing a worn or open element restores steady, responsive burner heat for everyday cooking. What it does

• Converts electrical energy to heat for the selected surface burner
• Works with the surface control to cycle heat and maintain set temperature
• Common symptoms: burner won't heat, heats weakly or intermittently, or shows visible hot spots/burn marks on the element

• 1 surface heating element

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing and let the cooktop cool completely
• Access the element by lifting/removing the cooktop or burner pan per your model's service procedure
• Photograph and label wire locations; move one connection at a time to the new element
• Transfer any mounting brackets or supports from the original element; avoid bending or stressing the element during install

The Broil Element is an OEM component for Whirlpool ranges. It is a vital heating component located at the top of the oven cavity that provides intense radiant heat for broiling functions. 

Symptoms of a bad Broil Element include:

• Inability to engage broil mode  
• Poor or negligible heating from the broiler
• Tripped circuit breakers when trying to broil
• Visible cracks, breaks, or damage to the broil element

Causes of failure can include deterioration over many heating and cooling cycles. Metal fatigue from constant expansion and contraction eventually causes cracking or breakage. 

This replacement broil element also fits Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, and some Kenmore models.

The Terminal Block is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It serves as a crucial connection point for the range’s electrical wiring, ensuring a safe and reliable transfer of power to the appliance.

Over time, terminal blocks can deteriorate due to factors such as heat exposure, electrical surges, or wear and tear. When the terminal block becomes damaged or corroded, it can lead to poor electrical connections or potential safety hazards.

Symptoms of a bad terminal block include:

• Burnt or scorched connections
• Intermittent power loss to the range
• Difficulty in the range heating up properly
• Visible damage or corrosion on the terminal block

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Oven Temperature Sensor Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This sensor is essential for monitoring the oven's internal temperature, ensuring that it reaches and maintains the correct temperature for baking and cooking. The sensor is approximately 7 inches long.

Over time, the oven temperature sensor can fail due to repeated heating and cooling cycles, exposure to spills or grease, or electrical issues. When the sensor malfunctions, it can result in inaccurate temperature readings, affecting cooking performance and food quality.

Symptoms of a bad oven temperature sensor include:

• The oven not reaching the set temperature
• Food cooking unevenly or not fully
• The oven overheating or underheating
• Error codes related to temperature issues

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Bake Element is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens, engineered to provide consistent and even heating for baking. This element is located at the bottom of the oven cavity and is essential for achieving the desired temperatures for cooking and baking. When electricity flows through the element, it heats up and glows red, radiating heat throughout the oven to cook food evenly. This component is crucial for the oven's functionality, affecting everything from baking pastries to roasting meats.

The primary cause of bake element failure is often wear and tear from regular use. Over time, the element can burn out or become damaged, which impacts its ability to heat properly. In some cases, spills and food residues can also contribute to its deterioration, affecting performance and potentially causing short circuits.

Symptoms of a failing Bake Element include:

• The oven not heating up properly or taking longer than usual to reach the set temperature
• Lack of visible red glow from the element when the oven is turned on, indicating it's not heating
• Uneven or insufficient cooking results, with food being undercooked or overly browned on one side
• Physical damage to the element, such as blistering, cracks, or breaks

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
