Oven Not Heating? We Fix It Same-Day in Minneapolis
Whether the oven won't heat at all or just won't reach temperature changes the diagnostic completely. On electric ovens it's almost always a burned-out bake or broil element (visible scoring near the break), a failed oven temp sensor, or the relay board. On gas ovens it's the igniter failing to glow hot enough to open the safety valve — the most common Minneapolis call, especially on 8+ year-old GE and Whirlpool gas ranges. Below: how we diagnose each by listening, by ohm test, and by the F-codes the control throws.

What we fix in Minneapolis
The Minneapolis repair mix
Bake element burnt through (electric)
Visible break or bubble in the coil. Easy swap once we confirm it's not the board calling the wrong relay.
Oven igniter weak (gas)
Glows but never gets hot enough to open the safety valve. Standard wear part — about every 6–8 years.
Safety valve failed (gas)
Igniter glows correctly but no gas flow. We test current draw at the igniter to confirm before replacing the valve.
Temperature sensor (thermistor) failed
Oven preheats forever, never reaches set temp, or throws F3/F4. $30 part, 20-minute fix.
Control board / relay failure
We rule out element, igniter, sensor first. Boards are the most expensive single part, so we don't replace them on a hunch.

FAQ
Minneapolis questions, answered
Why is my oven not heating?
5 causes account for almost every case — listed above by frequency. Without an in-home test we can't tell you which one is yours, but we can tell you what we'd check first.
Can I fix this myself?
Sometimes. If it's a coin in the drain pump, a clogged dryer vent, or a knockout plug on a new dishwasher — yes. If it's a sealed system, a control board, or a gas safety component — no. We'd rather you DIY the easy ones.
How much will it cost to repair?
Flat $149 trip fee ($149 for refrigeration), waived when you approve the repair. Most oven repairs land $225–$525 all-in. We give you a written quote before any work.
How fast can you come out?
Same-day windows weekdays when you call before 2pm. Otherwise next business day. We cover every Minneapolis ZIP — no extra trip charge anywhere inside city limits.
Do you stock the common parts?
Yes — for ovens, that's drain pumps, door boots, heating elements, thermistors, igniters, control-board common SKUs, and OEM gaskets. About 80% of these calls finish first visit.
What if repair doesn't make sense?
We tell you straight. If the repair is over 50% of replacement on an appliance past year 10, we recommend replacement and the $149 still applies for the honest answer.
