I am assuming that the oven does indicate that it is ready. The first thing I would check is the oven sensor (item 13 in Section 4. Here is a good link, take a look at 7, 8, 20 and 21. http://www.applianceaid.com/elecrange.html |

Sorry for not replying sooner but I was at the lake for a few days.
So oven does not come ready, Correct? This is important because if it does come ready then there is a problem with the control board as it is shutting the elements off before it should.
If both elements heat up to a red when cycling during preheat and since you have replaced the oven sensor I would say that the most likely cause is the control board but this is just a guess.
If the unit does not come ready but both elements are cycling properly then it is I am at a loss as to what is going on.
How low is your temperature from set point? It should let you calibrate the temperature plus/minus 25 degrees. The operators manual tells you how to do this. if you do not have it you can download it from the Maytag website. |
