Electric oven will not heat on bake; broil may still work.

Safety first: Disconnect power at the breaker before touching any wiring or elements.

Steps:

• Inspect element: Look for visible breaks, blisters, or burn marks on the bake element at the bottom of the oven. Replace if damaged.
• Continuity test: Remove the element mounting screws and gently pull it forward. Disconnect wires and test for continuity with a multimeter. Replace if open.
• Check terminals: Inspect the element terminals and wire connectors for burning or looseness. Replace damaged connectors and repair wiring.
• Control check: If the element and wiring are good, the EOC bake relay may be faulty. Replace the EOC.

Tip: When installing a new element, ensure it is properly supported by clips and not touching the oven liner.
