Our Jenn-Air SVE47100 has functioned flawlessly since purchase and install in 1996. This past weekend, the oven failed to heat above 270 deg - or maybe I didn't wait long enough (45 minutes). Either way, it's no longer working as it used to. I hear a sequence of clicks when I'd expect the element to heat; 2 clicks about 1 second apart, then about a 5 second delay, followed by 2 more clicks. I'm guessing what little heating is occuring is happening between the clicks.
Electrically, the 2 breakers are ganged, and both appear to be OK - haven't checked them electrically, only visually. Broiler functions correctly, so I'm guessing I have 220V where it's supposed to be.
Can't say for sure (haven't tried in last couple of days), but I think burner/grill elements still function OK. Same for downdraft fan.
No error codes displayed, main controls all appear OK.
Any help or ideas would be appreciated.
I was hoping for a way to conclusively know, but I started with the element, removed it, and found it to be open-circuit when I checked it with an ohm-meter.
Thanks for the help..

I just experienced the same problem with a 3 year old unit (800). Oven won't heat over 250 degrees but everything else works fine (even the broil).I just experienced the same problem with a 3 year old unit (800). Oven won't heat over 250 degrees but everything else works fine (even the broil).

I am having the same problem with my SVE47100 too. Not sure how old it is, but it's at least 3 1/2 yrs old. It's always cooked cooler than the display temp says, but it at least worked. At least it worked one day and not the next. Broiler works, but non-broiler won't get past 270 degrees now.I am having the same problem with my SVE47100 too.

I have a Jenn-Air Model SVE47100 oven/range in which the oven will not heat above 270 degrees. Lower element not heating up. Everything else appears to be working fine. Is it the element that needs to be replaced or something else.I have a Jenn-Air Model SVE47100 oven/range in which the oven will not heat above 270 degrees. Lower element not heating up.

I have a Jenn-air double wall oven and I am having a similar problem (slow to heat), but only in one of the ovens. Is this likely the element. I have a Jenn-air double wall oven and I am having a similar problem (slow to heat), but only in one of the ovens. Is this likely the element.

I had this problem, it was my heating element. I replaced the heating element and now i dont have a problem with the oven reaching temp quickly and staying at the programed temp.

HI. This is concerning the relay board that is installed in your unit. I would recommend to inspect the entire wiring harness that is linking the relay board to the elements, and other power component's. If the harness is ok, and connected tightly, and correctly, this will confirm that the relay board has failed. It must be replaced in the case. Be sure to inspect all wiring harness connections for corrosion before you replace the board. This could be as simple as a failed connection.
Obviously it does not work fine. The thermostat sensor or the stat itself could be an issue. Can you see the sensor 'bulb'? Clean it with oven degreaser and steelwool. What is the temp in the oven with a 'oven thermometer'? Is this consistent with the oven readout?
On this model there is a blower fan or cooling fan located between the cooktop and the oven. When oven temps reach @ 550 deg this fan should turn on to keep the controls cool. If it did not come on, you may have a bad fan thermostat or a bad fan. What happened is the control overheated and shut down on you.
You've probably already read pages 34 through 37 of the owners manual for this oven. We had this stove in the house we bought and the owner wrote in his own directions, which seem to work fine:
1. Turn knob selector to clean.
2. Turn temp knob to clean.
3. Close and lock door.
4. Push enter button and turn dial clockwise to desired time.
5. Push enter button again.
You've probably already tried this, but just in case I figured I'd pass it along.
