Well I didn't have to replace a relay after all. After removing the power board from the sheetmetal mount I found 1/4" of the copper trace on the board from P2 terminal to the relay missing. I decided to bridge the gap with solder so I scraped a little of the green protector off the copper trace to allow more to be exposed. I'm happy to report that bake now works like a charm, I even ran the clean cycle with no ill effect. Yippee!

I wonder why LOL. BTW, purchased locally & installed the broil elements and they work fine. I would've purchased from this site and saved $16 but being OOS with a 5-6 day wait to ship wouldn't work with the upcoming cooking holiday.
Thanks,

Unfortunately all manufacturers keep them as a top secret.

Will do. BTW, do you have the power board ic schematic you can share? I can attempt to trace it out but it would be nice to have. I've found a source for the Omron relays and will attempt a repair since it seems they are the usual suspects.
Thanks,

Also will be replacing the dual broil element though it's OOS on the site. Thanks, retrac

Thanks Gene. Wish I could replace the suspect relay, probubly could if I were able to nail down the relay on the board and purchase a replacement. Could the original failure of the bake element be because the outer broil element went bad causing the bake element to work double duity getting to and keeping the oven at the desired temp? The reason I ask is while ohming all elements the outer broil is open, inner is fine.
Again thanks,
retrac
