Oven Elements Turning On/Off - Electric Range

Possible Solution

Oven Elements Cycling On and Off?

It is normal for the oven elements (bake and broil) to turn off and on during a cycle. The oven elements have a limiter that allows them to cycle on and off at higher settings to prevent overheating and damage to the appliance. While the oven provides accurate temperatures, it may cook faster or slower than your previous oven.

 

Is the oven door open?

Depending on the model, make sure the oven door is closed all the way. The elements will not come on if the door is open.  If the oven door is opened during broiling, the broil element will turn off immediately and return once the door is closed.
