Gaggenau Broil Element or Relay Failure

Oven does not heat in broil mode, bake may still work

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Open broil heating element, Faulty broil relay on control board, Loose wiring to broil element

Safety: Disconnect power before servicing.

Inspect broil element: Look at the broil element at the top of the oven cavity for visible damage.
Test continuity: Access the element terminals and test with a multimeter. An open reading indicates a failed element.
Check wiring: Inspect wires from the element to the control board for burns or loose connections.
Replace parts: Replace the broil element if open. If the element is good, replace the electronic oven control due to a failed broil relay.
