Hi Martin, Thank you for your question. If the bake element will not turn on, the issue may be with the oven temperature sensor. The oven temperature sensor monitors the oven temperature and signals the electronic control board to turn the elements on and off. Before removing this part from the oven and testing it for continuity with a multimeter on the Rx1 setting, unplug the oven from the electrical outlet. This test needs to be done with the sensor at room temperature to produce accurate results. The reading should be between 1080 and 1100 ohms. If you get any other reading, you need a replacement temperature sensor. If the sensor is fine, you will need to check the elements, the electronic control board, and the wiring between the parts to see which part is causing the issue. We hope this helps with the repair!

Hi Jim, Thank you for your question. If the exterior part of the door is pulling away from the inner part of the stove door, the screws and the hardware that secure the door will likely need to be tightened. Here is a link to one of our YouTube videos that you may reference on how to remove/install the exterior oven door glass. The stove in the video may be different from yours, but it will give you a general idea on how to repair the door. We hope this helps! Good luck with the repair!
