MER8775A
Maytag MER8775A Electric Range Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Element that cycles on high but not on low
- Oven with a cool back corner
- Door glass that is cloudy or loose
- Panel that responds to only some keys
A MER8775A is a Maytag electric range with three known endings, MER8775AB, MER8775AS and MER8775AW. The cooktop and the oven both use electricity. Beyond that we do not claim details the label does not give, and we confirm the build when we see the range.
Some of the puzzling calls on this type of range have simple answers. An element that cycles on high but not on low is often a burner switch whose low-power contacts have worn. An oven with a cool back corner suggests the element is weak at one end or the door seal is leaking at the rear hinge. A panel that responds to only some keys usually has a damaged ribbon connector or a worn pad, not a failed control.
We pull the range forward gently, check the cord and terminals, and test each part before replacing it. Nothing begins until you have a written price, and the work is covered by our 30-day warranty.

Error codes this model can show
My MER8775A burner works on high but not on low. What is wrong?
Most likely the burner switch, whose low-power contacts have worn. We test the switch and, if it fails, replace it. The element usually tests fine in that case.
One corner of the oven stays cooler. Is the element bad?
Possibly an element that is weak at one end, or a door seal leaking near a hinge. We check the element with a meter and look at the gasket before replacing anything.
Only some keys on the panel work. Do I need a new control?
Not necessarily. A damaged ribbon connector or worn key pad often causes it. We inspect both of them first, and suggest a replacement control only if the testing shows the control itself has failed.
