Preheating forever, never reaching temp
The Problem
An electric GE range in Tipperary Hill would sit at 250°F no matter how long it preheated. Weeknight dinners had quietly become stovetop-only.
The Fix
The bake element had failed, browned at one end. Replaced it, verified the oven held its set temperature across three checks, and left it baking a tray of fries as proof.
