I bought a new broiler element and that has not fixed the issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!! The model is RF263LXTT1 cheers Ian

Personally I would just get the board but you have to go with your gut. If you order the board from AppliancePartsPros you can return it if it does not fix the problem. See their return policy.
