Admiral Oven burning food

When your Admiral oven is burning food, cooking too hot, or making food burn easily, start by checking the bake element. A damaged bake element can create uneven heating and hot spots, especially if it has holes, blisters, or fails a continuity test with a multimeter. Next, inspect the broil element. If it stays on when it should not or does not heat correctly, it can raise the oven temperature and cause an oven that runs hot. A faulty control board is another likely cause because its relays send voltage to the bake and broil circuits based on your settings and sensor input. The temperature control thermostat may also be defective and fail to regulate heat properly. Less commonly, the main control board or oven control board may not switch the heating components correctly. Disconnect power before testing or replacing parts, and use a qualified technician if you are not comfortable checking live voltage. Enter your Admiral oven's model number to find the exact bake element, broil element, thermostat, or control board replacement for your range, stove, or oven.

01 - Admiral Range/Stove/Oven Bake Element

When the bake element is heating properly, it glows red hot. If the element does not glow red, this indicates that the element is not heating. Often, if the heating element has burned out, it will be visibly damaged. Inspect the heating element for holes or blisters. To determine if the bake element has burned out, use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If the bake element does not have continuity, replace it.
