Maytag Range Repair – CANTON, OH (MER6775AAW)

A Canton homeowner called about their Maytag double oven range where the top oven’s lower heating element wasn’t working. They’d already tried replacing the element themselves with no success. Our diagnosis revealed the real culprit: a failed main board circuit.

The Problem

The customer reported that in the top oven the lower heating element does not work. They had bought a replacement element and installed it, but saw no change in performance.

Diagnosis

Testing revealed that the bake element itself was actually good. The main board upper bake circuit had failed, which meant no power was reaching the element. This explained why replacing the element didn’t solve the problem.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: None required for diagnostic
• Work performed: Diagnosed main board upper bake circuit failure
• Result: Confirmed no power to element due to board failure

Is It Worth Repairing?

This Maytag range would need a new main control board to restore full function. Maytag ranges typically last 13-15 years with proper maintenance. The repair decision depends on the unit’s age and overall condition, but main board replacements are among the more significant range repairs we perform.

Maintenance Tips for Maytag Ranges

• Keep oven vents clear of grease buildup to prevent overheating that can damage control boards
• Clean spills from the control panel immediately to prevent moisture damage to electronics
• Use the self-clean cycle sparingly on double ovens as excessive heat can stress control circuits
