Oven light socket Remove one wire from receptacle
and test resistance of terminals.
Measure voltage at oven light.
Indicates continuity with bulb screwed in.
120 VAC, see wiring diagram for terminal
identification.
If no voltage is present at oven light, check
wiring or light switches.
31722801
Oven indicator light
and
Surface indicator light
Remove one lead from switch
terminal and measure resistance
across terminals.
Measure voltage at indicator light.
Switch closed: 0 Ω
Switch open: Infinite resistance
If voltage is present and light does not
operate. Replace light.
If no voltage is present at indicator light
check wiring.

Bake element Disconnect wire leads to element
and measure resistance of terminals.
Measure voltage at bake element.
Continuity, approximately 20 Ω,
if not replace.
240 VAC, see wiring diagram for terminal
identification.
If no voltage is present at bake element
check wiring.
31967302
Broil element Disconnect wire leads to element
and measure resistance of terminals.
Measure voltage at broil element.
Continuity, approximately 19 Ω,
if not replace.
240 VAC, see wiring diagram for terminal
identification.
If no voltage is present at broil element
check wiring.
31954301
