Short answer

GE Oven Not Heating: The Short Answer

A GE electric oven that will not heat usually has a burned-out bake element or a failed temperature sensor. A GE gas oven that clicks or hums but never lights has a weak igniter. Both are one-visit repairs from $175. If the oven display is dead, it may be the control board or power to the oven.
What it means

Electric or gas?

  • Electric, element not glowing redThe bake element is burned out. Look for a blister or break on the element.
  • Electric, temperature way offThe oven heats but the temperature is wrong: the temperature sensor or the control board.
  • Gas, clicks or glows but no flameYou hear a click or see the igniter glow for a minute with no flame: the igniter is too weak to open the gas valve.
Try this first

Check these first

  1. Make sure the oven is not in Sabbath mode or a delayed start (common after a power outage).
  2. For an electric oven, reset the breaker. Ranges use a double breaker; one tripped side gives you burners but no oven.
  3. Check the clock. If the display is blank, the oven has no power or the board is out.
Time for a technician

When to Call Us

  • The element is broken or sparked.
  • The gas igniter glows but the oven does not light within a minute. Do not keep trying; turn it off.
  • The oven heats and then shuts off, or shows an F code.
