When your Glenwood range is producing a burning smell, stop using it until you identify the source. A defective temperature control thermostat is the most likely cause listed for this problem. This part regulates broiler temperature, and it must be replaced if it fails. 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 create an electrical burning smell from the stove or prevent the heating components from operating correctly. A shorted bake element is another likely cause. Look for holes, blisters, or other visible damage, then test the element for continuity with a multimeter. Finally, inspect the broil element for damage or a short from its terminals to the outer case. A damaged element can cause an oven burning smell or range burning smell and should be replaced. Disconnect power before testing or removing parts. Enter your Glenwood range model number to find the exact thermostat, control board, bake element, or broil element replacement for your appliance.
01 - Glenwood 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.

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.
If the broil element is shorted out. Often, if the element has shorted out, it will be visibly damaged. Inspect the broil element for holes or blisters. To determine if the broil element is shorted out, use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. If the broil element shows continuity from the terminals to the outer case, this indicates that it is shorted out. If the broil element is shorted out, replace it.
