Crosley Range is producing a burning smell

When your Crosley range is producing a burning smell, stop using it until you identify the source, especially if the odor is an electrical burning smell from the stove. The most likely cause is a defective temperature control thermostat, which can affect broiler operation and may need replacement because it is not repairable. Next, check the range control board, main control board, or oven control board. These boards use relays to send voltage to the bake and broil circuits, and a failed relay can damage a heating circuit or create a range burning smell. A shorted bake element is another common cause. Look for holes, blisters, or other visible damage, then test the bake element for continuity with a multimeter. The broil element can short in the same way, so inspect it for damage and test for continuity between its terminals and outer case. Replace any element that is shorted or lacks continuity. Enter your Crosley range model number to find the exact replacement thermostat, control board, bake element, or broil element for your appliance.

Sometimes, if the heating element burns out, it can short out to the inside of the oven. Often, if the bake element has shorted out, it will be visibly damaged. Inspect the heating element for holes or blisters. To determine if the bake element has shorted out, use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If the bake element does not have continuity, replace it.
