Top oven does not heat-although bottom oven is ok.

Assuming you have not removed or reconnected any of the wires I would look at the thermostat.

Sometimes that can happen if the oven was quite dirty. Let it cool down. Then, see inside if there is any junk on the top/bottom/walls of the oven. If so, wipe it down a little with a damp cloth. Then, run the self-cleaning again, it will probably go all the way through.

If that doesn't work, a relay switch that controls to turn off the self-cleaning might be bad.

Good luck.

usually it is the thermal cut off( TCO) ,a kind of themal fuse which goes out if the temp exceeds certain limit and cuts off the power to the elemnts.it is to protect the cavity from over heating.it needs to replaced or reset depending the model. u will need a tech to fix this.

Usually, when an oven won't heat, it's because the bake element is burned out. The bake element is the black, pencil- thick tube at the bottom of the oven. When the oven heats, the element glows red. This element has an expected life-span of several years. It may last for only one; it may last for many more. When the element burns out, you need to replace it.

Sounds like a thermal overload has opened up during clean. It may be mounted on the back.
