Hi Iyad

Where exactly was a short and how did you fix it?

The first thing I would check is wires to the bake element. Turn off the power to the oven and pull the bake out as much as wires go. Check for burned wires.

If the wires are good, check the bake element for continuity and replace it if it's open.

If this is not the issue, check for 120V between each wire and the ground and for 240V between both wires.

Post all results, please.

Good luck.
Gene.
