MER6872BA
Maytag MER6872BA Electric Oven and Cooktop Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Burner that glows weakly
- Oven temperature that wanders
- Broil element that trips the breaker
- Door that sits crooked
With the MER6872BA, Maytag built a range where electricity runs the cooktop and the oven. Suffix versions such as MER6872BAB, MER6872BAQ and MER6872BAS exist, so the whole number on the label goes with us to the parts counter.
Ranges like this give a short list of suspects. A weak burner is an element, a socket or a switch. A wandering oven is a sensor, a tired door seal or a hinge that lets the door droop. A broiler that trips the breaker may be leaking current, and we test for that before anyone cooks with it again.
Plenty of Houston homes have kept the same range in the same opening for years, and a modest repair often makes sense. When it does not, we tell you so. The quote is in writing before we start, and what we repair is warranted for 30 days.

Error codes this model can show
Why is the temperature in my MER6872BA oven inconsistent?
A drifting sensor, a tired door gasket or a drooping hinge can each cause it. We compare the oven against a thermometer and check those three before suggesting anything bigger.
One burner glows weakly. Is the element finished?
Not always. We test the element, then the socket and the burner switch. A worn element is a plug-in swap on most electric ranges of this type.
How do I know a repair is worth the money?
You see the price in writing first. If the cost makes little sense for the age of the range, we say so plainly before any work begins.
