Figure out what controls the elements, there's probably a contactor or big triac. It could be as simple as a cracked solder joint on the control board. |

It could also be an open in the actual heating elements. |

Ge Oven fails to heat
wrote in message ... Thanks for the help ! Turns out I had the breaker installed incorrectly I am running off a sub panel and I used a thin double pole I only contacted one of the bus bars.....The breaker is must cross both bars to get 240v I tested voltage across the breaker terminals and it read 0 So I reinstalled and it works just fine Thanks again for the help. Yep, that'll do it. I had assumed this was an existing installation that quit functioning. |
