2 ovens EB 876-6 EB877-6
One unit will only fire up to 200 degrees after having been left on for 1 hour and the other will only fire up to 400 degrees after being left on for 45 minutes. Are my heating units shot???? These ovens have in in use for 4 years!!!!

One unit will only fire...
It could be the heating element, or the thermostat is no longer working. You should be able to see the element glow orange. If it glows orange then it is probably the thermostat, and not the heating element.

Oven over heat Replace Sensor Before you order any parts remove the oven sensor quick connect and look for corrosion. Test the sensor; should be around 1100 ohms at room temp. More here
if you cant program it for more than the 270 you may have changed it from farienhiet ( bad spelling) to celcius. pushing and holding broil may switch it back.

Oven temp sensors sense the temperature is the oven cavity and the temp sensor changes resistance, this change in ohm resistance tells the oven control what temperature the oven cavity at and tells the control to shut off the element or turn it back on. The most common temp sensors used today ( *not all ) are approx 1000-1100 ohm resistance at room temperature ( 70�F ) Some ohm readings and there temperature: Degrees F - Resistance 100 - 1143 ohms 200 - 1350 ohms 300 - 1553 ohms 350 - 1654 ohms 400 - 1753 ohms 500 - 1949 ohms
