I have replaced the lower heating element in the oven, according to the Fix-It-Video, and still the oven does not work. The original heating element burnt into several pieces after the oven arced when the broken element came into direct contact with the metal casing of the oven. The oven filled with smoke from the arcing of the element and literally shorted out. What other part of the oven would prevent the new element from working once it was replaced? I also checked the continuity of the in-line thermal fuse and that showed that the fuse was still internally intact.

For model number MER8700DS1

Hello Charles, Thank you for the question. The Surge from the blown element may have burnt out the Control Board. This sounds like the Oven Control Board will also need to be replaced. If you need help placing an order, customer service is open 7 days a week. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!

Thank you for advising me about the lower heating element, and possibly burning out the control panel, due to the power surge. Is their a video available to help trouble-shoot the control panel issues, before I purchase it?

For model number MER8700DS1

Hello Charles, Thank you for the question. We do not have a video for your range, however we do have a similar video that may help. Good luck with the repair! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jriNgCdcsDY

Easy

When our oven stopped holding heat, I researched how to fix it. After watching the Fix it video, I knew I could do it. The site made it so easy in not only finding the right part but also installing it. I replaced the baking element by myself by watching the step by step video. It took me longer to get the oven back into place than the repair. My husband was impressed and happy that I saved us a lot of money.
