Kenmore Eletric Oven

[Tuco]

Oven and Broiler no work.

ERC clock is on, no F codes.

ERC pad appears to work , beeps when buttons pushed, Hear click but no heat.

Range burners work fine.

Unplugged stove to reset ERC, but still same problem.

Thanks

May be an open thermal cutoff. Do you have the wiring diagram?

No wiring diagram.

What are some causes that make them (thermal cutoff) go bad?

I did ask if the oven was used for self clean,.....got a big NO.

hearing a click does not mean the contacts in the relays are closing, it just means the relay is trying to close them

most frigidaire built ranges do not have a thermal cutoff, only the wall ovens have them

the control should be labeled for L2 out and bake, remove wire from bake terminal then test for 240 volts between L2 out and bake terminal, if there is no 240 there you need an ERC(providing the range has 240 supplied) and you proved this by saying the stovetop works

another way customers can cause a therm cutoff to fail is to leave the unit going on high broil for too long with the door closed

you are supposed to broil with the door open on its broil stop position(this is why oven doors have that spot in the hinges where the door stays slightly open)

a few more therm cutoff tips for the apprentice

frigidaire wall ovens have a therm cutoff located under the top panel or behind the back panel, with the wiring diagram it can be traced to the control panel to be tested without pulling the oven, but.... it has a manual reset button, so if tripped pull the oven and press button, dont order one

some frigidaire rangetops are thermally protected by a resetable thermostat hidden behind the control panel(its there incase the customer leaves the rear surface unit going too long and the control panel gets too hot)

Thanks Samurai and Toast!

I'm up to my ears in Alphabet soup.

Should be a good start for me thanks again!

no TCO

may be a bad DLB Relay (soldered) on the ERC.

May have gone bad from Self-Clean,

OR if one of the Oven Elements had ever shorted to chassis (ground)
