No heat Maytag smoothtop range MERH752BAB

After working well for about a week our Maytag Performa Electric Smoothtop Range (Model #MERH752BAB) has no heat to the burners or oven. The "on indicator" light does not turn on. Only the clock and control panel buttons are working. It does not seem to be set to any delayed or Sabbath settings. Our first problems with the heat turning off seemed to be fixed by tipping and resetting the range. Now nothing works. Any suggestions? Many thanks!

    maytag performa electric range indicator light wont go off even when stove is not hot

  • Anonymous Mar 27, 2014

    When we turn the oven on a small red light goes on. But there does not seem to be a way to determine when the oven reaches the set temperature. The red light stays on as long as the oven is turned on. And yes, there is no thermometer with the range.

Thanks for replying -- I didn't get into the full details but although it had not been used it was no longer under warranty as we bought the house (with new appliances) from an owner who had fixed it up and remodeled the kitchen but never lived in it (or used the stove). The previous owner did however give us a sort of warranty on the house and so we got in touch with them. We got a repairman in and it turned out the the power cord was badly damaged on the underside of one of the three parts and that was why we had power to the clock and control panel but not to the oven or range. In the end we were happy that it hadn't started a fire back behind the stove.

It would have to be under warranty if this happened after only 1 week. I would contact the manufacturer.

Maytag precision touch control 500 electric smoothtop

The heating coils in the oven need to be inspected very carefully where they plug in to the oven wall. You will need to remove the back covers and check the insulators and wiring harnesses. Over time the insulation can break down and oxidize the metal connections. You can use a voltmeter or test light to verify that the coils are getting voltage from the thermostat/switch. replacing parts is cheaper than buying new if you can find the parts.

Indicator light on my maytag electric smoothtop range will not shut off even though the indicators are off?

One of the high heat sensors has failed on one of the burners under the glass. Disconnect one sensor at a time to find out which one, then replace that burner assembly.

Oven will not shut off

Hello,

Sounds like a stuck relay in the control board. The only way to repair this problem is going to be by replacing the control board. If you have anymore questions please ask. I'll be more than happy to help you further.

Thanks

Maytag smoothtop kitchen range

The only way to find out for sure is to check the voltage to the element.
Most of the ranges have 2 or 3 screws under the front of the top. Remove them and the top will tilt up. Be careful, there is voltage on some of the wires.
Turn the switch on and check for voltage across the element terminals. If you have 240V, then the switch is ok and you probably need an element.
If you can post the complete model number from the tag on the back of the console, I may be able to give a little better directions.
Thanks/Mike

Where is the model number on my Range?

As you are facing the range, there should be a metal plate (held on by one screw) on the left hand side behind the console. Model and serial number should be located here. On some models the information will be along one side of the oven door opening, or bottom drawer. Hope this helps you.
