What cause oven broiler problem?

Oven broiler problem

If you are a person who uses their oven broiler, you may be upset when you start facing problems with it. There is no reason to worry when the team at Express Repair can help you with any broiler problem you may be facing.

Causes:

• Burnt out broil element: when the broil element is working properly, it glows a bright red when heated up, and will not glow if it is not working. You are able to check for holes or blisters on the element that can help indicate if it has burnt out. You can use a multimeter to check for continuity on the broil element. If it does not have continuity, it has burnt out and will need to be replaced.
• Temperature control thermostat: this thermostat regulates the temperature of the broiler. If the thermostat is no longer working, it will not be able to heat up the broiler element. When the thermostat malfunctions, you will need to replace it as it is not repairable.
• Oven control board: The control board sends voltage to the bake and broil circuits when you need to use them. If the control board is faulty, it may not be able to send the voltage to the broil circuit. Before you replace the control board, make sure you have tested all other possibilities and causes of the broiler problem.
