Call Sears.
Sounds like the thermostat is bad. That would be where I would start. Not sure how to take it out but Sears can probably tell you if you call them. They may also know if it is the thermostat.





Good luck.
The thermostat is bad. Sears services their own makes, though I would get an estimate for the work from them first; since stoves start at around $200 it might be cheaper to replace it (sad to say).
It sounds as though you need a new thermostat for your oven. It should be with a new thermocouple.


Also, your temperature limiter sensor needs to be replaced.(It keeps the heating element from heating if the temperature is too high in the oven.


Solid state relays are very reliable, so I would not suspect that.
