Hi again..just had you guys help me with my washer and went great!
Now last night the dang oven is acting up.
The oven will heat up, but seems like only to about 3oo, selected 350.
But according to the temp check I did, it just isnt heating up as it should be. About a week ago, while i was cooking, something strange did happen.
It seemed like something inside the oven made like a crackling noise and wasnt right., but seemed to work ok. In reading the threads here it sure seems there is alot of problems with the kitchenaid appl. Hope its an easy fix. Thanks for any help or suggestions you may have...not been my week lol.:rolleyes:

Here are your part Parts for Whirlpool KERC507HWH3 Range - AppliancePartsPros.comDo both elements work? During pre-heat and bake most units switch back and forth between the two elements. Unplug the unit and inspect the elements visually. Also run your fingers along them so you can determine if the calrod coating is bubbled/compromised where you cannot see it. |

Hi and ty denman....the bake element is hidden under the lower part of the oven, cant see it..the broil element seems to get red. I was also wondering about the temp probe in the back of the oven, if that could be the issue. The hidden element does seem warm when the oven is started, but hard to tell if it continues to get hotter.:cool:
