Possible Causes

Open bake or broil element, Tripped high-limit thermostat, Failed EOC relay, Lost one leg of 240V supply

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Electric ovens use 240V; always disconnect power at the breaker before testing elements or thermostats.

Steps to try:

  • Check power: Have an electrician verify that both legs of the 240V supply are present at the terminal block.
  • Inspect elements: Look for visible breaks or blisters on the bake and broil elements. Test for continuity and replace if open.
  • High-limit thermostat: Some models have a manual-reset high-limit thermostat on the rear. Reset if tripped, or replace if it will not reset.
  • EOC relays: If elements and power are good, the EOC may not be sending power to the elements and will need replacement.
