Oven Repair (including Ranges and Cooktops)

Hello

Could someone tell me what the voltage across the bake element should be. I am reading 115vac steady. I replaced the element but the oven takes a long time to reach temp. The old element was bad. The replacement elements physical diameter is 3/4 the original. I do not know if I have a voltage issue or if the element I have is not correct. Also where could I find a schematic for this range. Thank you in advance for all replys

You should have 240 volts across the element when on.

I thought it should be 240, schematic confirms. Looks like i got to start digging deeper. Thanks for the help very useful forum
