Garland Wall oven is producing a burning smell

When your Garland wall oven has a burning smell, stop using it until you identify the source. A defective temperature control thermostat is the most likely cause and may prevent the broiler from heating correctly, so the thermostat must be replaced if testing confirms it has failed. Next, check the control board and main control board, which use relays to send voltage to the oven's heating components. A failed board can create an electrical burning smell or keep the bake or broil circuits from operating properly. The bake element and broil element are also highly likely causes. Inspect both for holes, blisters, or other visible damage, and use a multimeter to test for continuity. If an element does not glow red hot during operation or lacks continuity, replace it. On an electric Garland wall oven, inspect the terminal block and power cord connections for loose, overheated, or melted wiring. Turn off power at the circuit breaker before inspecting electrical parts, and have damaged wiring or a burned receptacle repaired by a licensed electrician. Enter your wall oven's model number to find the exact replacement part for your Garland appliance.

04 - 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.

06 - Garland Range/Stove/Oven Terminal Block

If the power cord connections in the terminal block on your electric range are not secure the wire can overheat, burning the connections on the terminal block, and melting the coating on the wires. Check to ensure the connections are tight and not burnt. If the terminal block connectors are burnt, the terminal block should be replaced. If the power cord terminal connectors are burnt or damaged, the power cord should be replaced. If the power cord prongs are burnt, a new power cord should be installed and the receptacle checked and replaced if necessary by a licenced electrician.
