Oven will not heat in broil mode, but bake still works; broil element does not glow red.

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker before accessing the broil element.

• Inspect broil element: Look at the upper element for cracks, breaks, or burn marks. Replace if damaged.
• Check continuity: Remove the mounting screws, pull the element forward, disconnect wires, and measure resistance. Replace if open.
• Inspect wiring: Check for burnt or loose connections at the element and control end.
• Control check: If the element and wiring are good, the broil relay on the EOC or the selector switch may be faulty. Replace the electronic oven control or selector switch as appropriate.

When to call a technician: If both bake and broil are affected, a professional should check the incoming power and control board.
