A very likely solution is that loose connections cause the Lugs (connections) to heat up. It is a good idea for people to ever so often check connections in your Breaker Boxes or even behind an Electric Ranges or any large electrical unit. (knock breaker for safety).
Hi-- Since you've gone this far already- let's check this stuff first. >Power connections at bus block. >L1 and L2 connections at control. >Any ground connections. Start with power off and visually inspect connections. Bus block is difficult to access for live testing, but can be seen with bright flashlight. Connections on board route all the power, so make sure all are tight. Please acknowledge this post if info is helpful- have more if needed. Thanks- Ed
Check the receptacle it plugs to. SOMETIMES the connections come loose there. If the wires show signs of heating, then they must be cut back to fresh clean strands. If it is aluminum wire, you must abrade the fresh strand and apply the anti-oxide grease.
If there has bee heating at the connections, USUALLY the receptacle requires replacement as the plating will have been burned at the contacts making it unsafe.
Also check the connections at the breaker for heating.
Also check the connections of the pigtail on the oven.
