Electric Oven Not Heating: Bake & Broil Elements

No heat from an electric oven usually means a burnt-out bake element — often visible at a glance.

Electric ovens heat with two elements. A failed one is the most common no-heat cause and easy to spot.

Inspect the Bake Element

The lower element often blisters or breaks, leaving the oven cold.

Fix: Look for a visible break or bright spot; a damaged element should be replaced.

Test the Broil Element

If only the top heat is dead, the upper broil element has failed.

Fix: A technician confirms with a continuity test and swaps it out.

Check the Bake Igniter (Gas)

On gas ovens, a weak igniter fails to open the gas valve, so the oven never lights.

Fix: A glowing-but-not-lighting igniter is the classic sign for replacement.
