If your oven is not heating or powering on then you should test the thermal fuse for continuity to see if it is good or bad. This free video shows step by step instructions on how to test your dryers thermal fuse using a multimeter.

Ranges, Ovens, and Microwaves use thermal fuses as a safety to keep the oven from overheating and causing a fire. When the fuse blows it can cause the oven to power on but not heat, or it can cause the oven to not power on at all. Visually you cannot tell if the fuse is blown and you will need to use a multimeter or ohm meter to do a continuity test to see if the fuse is good or bad. If you have a bad thermal fuse, make sure address why the oven was overheating. Most commonly the fuse will blow if the oven was run on the self clean cycle or if the cooling fan is bad (only applies applicable models that have a cooling fan).

If you find that you have a bad thermal fuse you can shop for a new one on our online store by searching with your appliances model number, or entering the part number off of the thermal fuse here: http://partsdr.com/appliance-type/ran...
