The oven temperature is real low. Both elements appear to be working.

Could be your oven sensor.
Here is a link with info on how to check it

Also depends what you mean by "real low".
You can usually adjust the temperature plus or minus 35 degrees. See your operators manual.

I mean REAL low. It's like the thermostat is not properly operating. Is that hard to replace?

In order to provide most accurate advice we need the complete model number of the oven.
