Roper Oven burning food

If your Roper oven is burning food, cooking too hot, or making food burn easily, inspect the heating and temperature-control components before replacing the range. The bake element is the most likely cause. It should glow red during baking, but holes, blisters, visible damage, or a failed continuity test indicate that it needs replacement. Next, check the broil element for the same signs, since a damaged broil element can affect oven heating. If both elements appear intact, a defective Roper oven control board may send improper voltage to the bake or broil circuit. The temperature control thermostat is another common cause of an oven that runs hot or has an oven temperature problem. If it fails, replacement is required because the thermostat is not repairable. Less commonly, the main control board or oven control board may have a failed relay or incorrect sensor input. Disconnect power before testing or replacing parts, and use a multimeter only if you are comfortable doing so. Enter your Roper range model number to find the exact bake element, broil element, thermostat, or control board for your appliance.

01 - Roper 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.
