My newly installed Frigidaire wall oven, model FGEW3065KF fails to heat up except for the convection element. Broiler element makes no heat at all and bake element is uncertain because it is hidden. Before I call a service tech I want to confirm the installation. The oven cable has 4 wires (red, black white and bare) and the cable from the panel box has 3 wires (black white and bare). The connections in the junction box are: oven black to house white oven red to house black oven white and bare to house bare to metal junction box The house wires to the panel box are: house white to one active side of 30Amp double pole breaker house black to second active side of 30Amp double pole breaker house bare to ground bar of panel box Is this OK? Most diagrams I have seen don;t show using the house bare ground as a "white neutral"

    This is an installation in new construction not a replacement oven.

I think I can help you but i am a bit confused with the panel box and the junction box. If you want to reply explain the circuit in a bit more detail from the switchboard where the fuse is to the back of the oven. It would also be a good idea to have a voltmeter or test lamps handy. Does the double pole breaker do the Active and Neutral or is it 2 phases going through the breaker. Did the wiring used to be for a full range and now there is only the new oven in its place.

    This is an installation in new construction. The circuit was run for the wall oven only. The black and white wire are screwed onto the breaker and the bare wire is screwed to the ground bar. The installation manual calls for a A 3-wire or 4-wire single phase 120/240 or 120/208 Volt, 60 Hz AC only electrical supply.

No heat on convection or self clean

If you have been using the self clean feature, you have probably burned out or damaged the connections to the fan and the convection fan element or thermistor. NEVER EVER use the self clean feature.

Frigidaire double convection wall ovens, model GLEB30T9DSA ... The top oven will not heat, both the bottom element and the broiler.....

I have the Frigidaire PLEB30S8CCA single wall oven. About 3 months ago the baking element appeared to have gone out. We replaced it, but still didn't work. We ended up sending our control board off to a company named Corecentric. They fixed the problem and returned it to us. The oven has worked perfectly ever since. I searched extensively for a new one, but no one sold them anymore. I found Corecentric on Ebay. They were able to confirm over the phone that it was more than likely a control board issue. It cost about $130. My husband was able to do it himself by taking a couple before px and using them when reassembling it.

Frigidaire oven will not get all the way hot

Good Afternoon Tasha - There could be
a number of any one of several underlying causes in why the oven is
experiencing this particular issue:


·
Convection
heating element


·
Thermal cutout


·
Thermal oven
sensor


·
EOC
(electronic oven control)


·
Ignitor


·
Bake or broil
element


·
All wired
connections



The parts above will need to be assessed for further
evaluation. Lastly, the oven cavity and insulation should be checked to ensure
there are no gaps or damages that will leak out the heat. At t his time, I
would recommend contacting a professional to assist you further since it is always
a good idea to get the appropriate diagnosis prior to making any unnecessary
part replacements.

Dacro Wall oven (electric) does not heat past 345 degrees on bake or convection bake but broiler works and bottom oven works fine (for bake, convection bake and broil).

it could be the oven temp sensor rod located near the top of the inside of the oven,or possibly the bake element has a hot spot on the element and can no longer pass enough current thru this spot to correctly heat to your settings a hot spot on the element will look discolored in this area

I have a Fridgidaire Model # PLEB30S8CCC wall oven. The broiler works fine. The oven is very slow to heat up, 20 minutes to reach 250. I checked the lower element with a omp meter it read 20. Is that...

Hello there and than you for choosing Fixya
If your oven does not heat, does not heat enough or does not broil, a common cause is a burned out heating element. There are two elements, the baking element on the floor of the oven and the broiling element on the ceiling of the oven. They are about the diameter of a pencil and typically supported by metal stand-offs.
This easiest test you can do is to turn on the oven and observe the heating element. If it glows red, the element is working. When baking, the broiling element may come on to assist with preheating or to maintain the oven temperature. When set to bake, if the broiler comes on, but the baking element does not, the likely cause is a burned out baking element.
When set to broil, the broil element should glow red, but the bake element typically is not used. If the broiler does not glow, it is likely a burned out heating element.
There are other possible causes of these symptoms, refer to our diagnostic page for some other possibilities.
To test the heating element using a multimeter, follow the steps provided below.
  1. Unplug the oven or turn off the power at the breaker or fuse box.
  2. Follow the heating element back to where it goes through the wall of the oven. Remove the bracket that secures the element in place.
  3. Unscrew or unfasten any stand-off supports that secure the element to the oven.
  4. Pull the element part way out to expose the oven's wiring connected the element.
  5. Label the wires and secure them in place so they do not fall back into the cavity.
  6. Disconnect the wires from the element.
  7. Using a multimeter set to x1, touch one probe to each of the element contacts. Expect resistance in the range of 20 to 40 ohms. Infinite or kilo-ohm resistance usually indicates a bad element and it should be replaced.
  8. If the element tests okay, reconnect the wires, slip them back into the cavity and resecure the element.

Slow to heat on convection mode, bottom element not get as hot as

Check to see that the convection element is heating. If not, ohm it out, either the element is bad or it is not getting power from the control.

Broiler doesn't turn on completely

The top element should come on when Broiler is selected. If both ovens have a broiler mode, then look for something failed in the circuit for the broiler heating elements (it's unlikely both broiler elements would fail together.). If there is only 1 oven with a broiler, look for a failed broiler element.

Electric wall oven will not heat up

This is ovenmad from the previous post. I had a repair guy come out and he found the problem to be the Safety Thermostat. When tripped, this allows everything to work on the oven except the elements. He did not have the part with him so will return in 6 days to replace it. That should solve the problem. No idea why it tripped. The safety thermostat is located on the rear of the oven so we will have to pull out the oven to replace the thermostat. Again, this was a Frigidaire Single Electric Wall Oven made in 2004. Hope this helps somebody else.
