Not sure what size amp to install and what wiring. None of this information was in the manual.

If you're connected to a 240V source, a two-pole 40 amp circuit is required. If connected to a 208V source, a two pole 30 amp circuit is required.

But the limiting factor here will be the wire size. If installed with #10 copper wire, 30 amp will be maximum. If a #8 copper (or #6 aluminum) 40 amp is maximum. See the link below for details.

I appreciate your post, Steve!

From my understanding you would like to know which wire should be used from the bracket box to your oven for your Frigidaire oven. I have provided you a copy of your installation manual. I am showing that the amp needed for your oven is a 40 amp circuit. I hope that is helpful for you. -Matt

The necessary data for your installer is on
the rating plate. The rating plate is on the back side on oven and on the bottom side on hob. Never remove
the rating plate from the appliance cavity.
Make sure that the electrical information on
the rating plate agrees with the power
supply. If not, contact an electrician

All electrical connections should be made by
a qualified electrician.
The appliance must be earthed.

I trust that your voltage system in your house is 240 volt. The number of wires or the size of the wiring will depend purely on the kilowatt rating of the oven. Normally on a 240 volt system a 3 wire 32 amp circuit will generally be used on ovens/ranges up to at least 6.0 kilowatt. If you need more information please reply.

Well, 6800W/240V = 28.33 amps, call it 30. Minimum AWG wire size 10ga., if you're running it over about 20' go up to a 8ga. to be sure your oven is fed adequately.

this unit will draw up to 50 amps if all burners are operating. i do not know the exact wattage, but they usually have an 8 gauge wiring connector already on the oven, if a wall oven.
if a free standing then you will have to put on a cord that will also be an 8 gauge.
you will need to determine what wire gauge to use depending on how long of a run you have from the circuit panel to carry the load.
it is also a single phase 240 volt system, but that doesnt matter because the wires are the same.
are you new at being an electrician? check your code book to make sure you are doing this wiring by the codes for your area.

Open the door and look inside near the base of the door. It will say the voltage. Ours is 110. You can go to the maytag website to get an owners manual and installation manual for free.

According to the manufacturer's schematic, the orange wire is powered through a 15 amp breaker from the red conductor.

You must use a three-wire, single-phase A.C.
208Y/120 Volt or 240/120 Volt, 60 hertz
electrical system. If you connect to aluminum
wiring, properly installed connectors approved
for use with aluminum wiring must be used.

That means that you ned a double 40 amp breaker.

Good Luck

You either have a bad element, loose wire or a short.
Start by checking the connection at the back of the stove.
Then look inside the oven to see if there is any visible evidence of damage to one of the oven elements.
I would suspect it is the bottom element that is giving you trouble.
Otherwise, if you have bad wiring to the range outlet, this could be difficult to track down.
If this is a new installation, your fuse/circuit breaker may not be high enough amps.
You may need to increase the size by installing new fuses or breaker depending on which you have.
I think a 50amp breaker would be standard, but you may need to use a 45 amp or greater. Just be sure your wire to it is heavy enough.
#6 wire would be better for a double oven situation.
