Replacing element for Maytag Gemini glass cooktop

Oven/Range/Cooktop Repair
1

I have a Maytag Gemini glass top electric Range. My upper left large element just went out last week. How hard is it to replace it and does any one has a diagram that I can use if this can be done as DIY? Thank you.

In order to provide most accurate advise we need the complete model number of the range. You can find it behind the control panel.

Hi Gene, I’m also replacing a element for my Maytag MES5875BCS - It’s a Slide In Range so the panel and knobs are in front. Would you have a Service Manual and break down diagrams for this particular model?

Here is the Service manual for your range. I can not post the exact diagrams for your model but if you can provide information about parts you need, I’ll be glad to support you with the right part numbers.

Thank you very much Gene! Don’t worry about the diagram, I was able to get the part number already. I should be ordering shortly - thanks again for your help and more power to you!

You are welcome. Keep us posted.

Hello,

I believe I need to replace one of the large elements on our Gemini electric range. It is the front right element, and no longer turns on and heats up. The appliance model number is MER6751AAB. Should I purchase part number AP4009116 found here:

Model MER6750AAB

(The link is for parts for MER6750AAB, but I couldn’t find my exact model.)

Thank you for your time!

KMA,

Before buying any parts I would recommend to troubleshoot the problem to find out exactly what is wrong and which part has to be replaced. It could be a heating element or an infinite switch. You can find the complete instructions in the Service manual.

Thanks Gene.

I removed the “bad” element to inspect it, and here is what I found:

It seems it broke and shorted out. I moved the other large element to the same position and it works fine, so I’m assuming the part in the pic is the only problem. I separated and taped up the dangling wires and removed the burner knob as a precaution until a new one can be purchased. Unless you have some other things I should look at, I guess I’ll order the part I linked to in my first post. Or should I order the element “kit” (AP205973)?

Thanks again for your help,
Kevin

Hi Kevin,

You did very good job and are on the right track. The right part number for this heating element is AP205973.

Good luck.
Gene.

Hi - I know this is an old thread, but one of my stove elements went out the other day, and I just found this on a search. I’ve got a Maytag MER6771AAQ, and the front left element (the smaller one, same as right rear I believe) was working fine one minute, then when turned it on again a minute later, just didn’t heat up anymore. Does this sound like the element? Or the limiter? Or the infinite switch? Is there a way to pinpoint which?

Gene, may I be so bold to ask if you have a service manual for this model?

Thanks very much.

All these parts can cause this problem. The only way to pinpoint which part exactly is bad is to check all of them for continuity. You have to have an ohmmeter to do it. Let us know when you ready.

Thanks very much, Gene. I am probably going to be away all weekend, but will pick this up again next week. Have a good weekend.

OK, I finally have some time, and do have an ohmmeter. Could you please let me know where I should start? Thank you.
