  • Continuity test: Remove the broil element, disconnect wires, and test for continuity. Replace if open.
  • Check wiring and terminals: Repair any overheated or loose connections at the element or control board.
  • Replace control board: If the broil element and wiring are good, the broil relay on the EOC may be defective and the board should be replaced.
