Frigidaire range model PLEF398CCC

Both the to and bottom elements stopped heating at the same time. The oven is about 5 years old. Could this be a thermostat or fuse problem?

Turn off both breakers and then back on. Then check the wiring from the receptacle to the plug, to the back of the oven. This should be where the problem is. You particular model may have replaceable internal fuses. Look for them in the back of the oven. They are slow blowing fuses and can be checked. You won't be able to tell they are blown just by looking at them.

Frigidaire oven wont heat up but stovetop and digital all works

Hello angeleyez82 - The EOC (electronic oven control/control board) basically sends power to both the broil and bake elements. As long as the power supply to the range (240VAC) and wiring between the elements is correct, then typically only the element(s) or EOC could prevent the unit from heating. I hope this information helps to some degree.

Heating element in Frigidaire range, model number FEFL64FSD.

Either the bake element is bad or the clock / control is bad. Element can be tested with an ohms meter

Bottom element stays on oven continues to heat. Temp guage preset stops at setting but element does not got off.

You do not list a model number, but this condition is generally caused by welded contact points in the electronic control. (requires electronic control replacement)

The fan and oven light in bottom oven works but not heat.

The heating element is the likely culprit as they burn out and go open
circuit..(ie ...disconnected and will not heat up )
If you can use a multi-meter , then the element can be tested using the resistance range (with the oven SWITCHED OFF )

Oven heating element

Hello rvready
Welcome,


You said, We have an OLD (1950-60) Frigidaire wall oven, model # RBG-94. Bottom heating element has gone out. Oven is still in good shape so we'd like to be able to find an element replacement, but have had no luck finding one.

unfortunately,
I am not able to find this part either.
Anywhere. This oven is to old for parts. But most important is that it is causing you high utility rates!
Today's appliances save you the arm and the leg that such an old oven is costing you.
You have no idea how it is sucking your money out of your pocket!
It is unfortunate, that no one told you about this years ago!
You payed for more than one oven with your utility bill if you had it since it was new. My advice is do not put good money into bad!
Shop for a new one and see your bills go down.
my wife was telling me to replace the air and furnace for 7 years and I said, it's not broken. But it was over 20 years old. She was right, cause the new one saved me $100. a month!
That means I threw away $7000. in 6 years with my old world attitude.
Yes I am old fashion and always fix it!
But after 25 years of marriage. i finally realized she is a good evaluator and I was a fool to not appreciate her gift for all these years! And out tons more money than I told you about!

Hope I saved you some bucks with my real life stories!
Don't tell your wife!!!
Huuum
