My oven doesnt work!
When I turn it on, the bottom doesnt work at all, BUT interestingly enough my broiler turns on just a smidge, so the whole oven gets slightly warm. Do I have an electrical problem, or should I just replace the bottom element?

Usually these elements blow out like a roman candle! If no evidence of this I would just pull out both bake and broil elements and check for burnt wires. If you need an element, please post back, we may be able to save you some money.
