If your Garland oven is burning food or cooks too hot, start with the bake element. A damaged or partially failed bake element can heat unevenly. Inspect it for holes or blisters and check continuity with a multimeter after disconnecting power. If it does not glow red during baking or lacks continuity, replace it. Next, inspect the broil element, which can also be visibly damaged or fail a continuity test. If both heating elements test good, a defective oven control board may send incorrect voltage through its relays. The temperature control thermostat is another likely cause when it fails to regulate heat correctly and must be replaced rather than repaired. Less commonly, the main control board or oven control board may have relay or sensor-input problems that keep the oven running too hot. This Garland oven troubleshooting guidance applies whether your oven runs hot consistently or food burns easily. Before ordering, enter your model number to find the exact replacement bake element, broil element, thermostat, or control board for your specific Garland range.
01 - Garland 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.

The broil element may have burned out. When the broil 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 element has burned out, it will be visibly damaged. Inspect the broil element for holes or blisters. To determine if the broil element has burned out, use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If the broil element does not have continuity, replace it.
The control board has relays that send voltage to the bake and broil circuits according to the user settings and sensor input. If the control board is defective, it may not send voltage to the heating components.
04 - Garland Range/Stove/Oven Temperature Control Thermostat
The temperature control thermostat regulates the broiler temperature. If the thermostat is defective, it may fail to heat the broiler element. The oven thermostat is not repairable—if the thermostat is defective, you must replace it.
The control board has relays that send voltage to the bake and broil circuits according to the user settings and sensor input. If the control board is defective, it may not send voltage to the heating components.
