bake element burned out and small fire, after excitement, replaced bake element, no joy. Checked power, no breakers popped, surface and control works fine. Replaced thermostat still no bake, broil element heats fine. Checked thermal fuse, not blown. At wits end. Convection fan works fine.
For model number Matag MER8775AS0

Hi Ross, thank you for reaching out. We would recommend checking to see if you have installed the bake element correctly or not. If this is not the issue, then you may need to check the following parts: oven sensor, part number FIX11749737, terminal block, part number FIX11750972, and wire harness, part number FIX12578055. We hope this sorts out your problem!

Intermittently warm (not hot) oven recepies
I watched the install video, gathered up basic tools (#2 + screwdriver, flashlight, and cleaning rags. Turned off circuit breaker, placed some heavy cardboard under front base feet (no floor scratches) and slowly slid range out enough to gain access to rear panel cover. Removed all necessary screws and slid panel away to gain access to thermistor. Detached wiring connector, removed the two screws slid old thermistor out, new one in, tighten thermistor mounting screws and attached wiring connector. Slide oven back in place, turn on circuit breaker, set clock, and bake test batch of muffins. Worked like new. Celebrated with muffins and coffee - easy peasy!
