How to fix your Modern Maid electric wall oven when it won't bake
A failed control thermostat can prevent the oven from baking on a wall oven that uses dials for the oven controls. On a wall oven with a digital display, a failed electronic control board or relay control board may keep the oven from working. A bad temperature sensor probe will also prevent the oven from heating. A broken bake element in an electric oven or a failed igniter in a gas oven can also cause a heating failure.

How to fix your Modern Maid electric wall oven when it won't broil
- Shut off the house circuit breakers for the oven and check the broil element for cracks or damage.
- Replace the broil element if you see physical damage such as a broken or cracked element.
- If the broil element is okay, then check the main electronic control board and the relay control board for burn marks that indicate a circuit board failure. You'll likely need to replace a control board if it has burn marks indicating a failed circuit board component.
- Check all wiring connections (with power still disconnected from the oven). Reconnect any loose wires and repair any broken wires.
