Maytag MER6875BC Electric Range Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Burner that will not turn off
- Oven that stops partway through a bake
- Broil element that smells burnt
- Knobs that spin without effect
MER6875BC is a Maytag electric range with electricity supplying all of its heat. Sister numbers MER6875BCB, MER6875BCS and MER6875BCW differ in finish or revision, and parts can differ on exactly those letters.
A burner that will not turn off is a different problem from one that will not turn on. It points to a burner switch with welded contacts, and it should be dealt with promptly, since the element keeps heating. When an oven quits partway through a bake, we look at the bake element, the sensor and any wiring that has been cooked brittle over the years.
These ranges commonly back onto a wall in a kitchen opening, so we slide the range out gently and check the cord and terminal block as part of the visit. We confirm the number from the label, set the price in writing, and cover the work for 30 days.

Error codes this model can show
One burner on my MER6875BC stays on even when the knob is off. What is wrong?
The burner switch has probably failed with its contacts stuck closed. Turn off the breaker for the range and call us; the switch is a routine replacement once confirmed.
The oven stops in the middle of baking. What do you look at?
We check the bake element, the temperature sensor and the wiring that carries current to them. Brittle or scorched wiring behind the range can also interrupt heat, so we inspect the terminals.
A burnt smell from the broiler, should I be worried?
Some smell is just grease. A sharp electrical smell is different, so we inspect the broil element and its terminals for arcing or damage before the range is used again.
