MER5710AA
Maytag MER5710AA Electric Range Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Oven that cooks slowly or unevenly
- Surface element that stays on high
- Light that does not come on in the oven
- Door seal that is torn or hardened
- Knob that spins without changing the burner
For the MER5710AA we are dealing with a Maytag electric range that is also listed as MER5710AAQ and MER5710AAW. Parts chosen by a neighboring number can turn out wrong, so we match everything to the full label.
A burner stuck on high is dangerous enough that we ask owners to switch it off at the breaker until we arrive, since the infinite switch has usually welded its contacts closed. A knob that spins freely is a different problem: the stem or the switch drive is worn, and the part is inexpensive. A hardened door seal causes slow or uneven baking, so we look at it before replacing elements.
If the oven light is out, the bulb is the first test, followed by the socket and the switch. We write a price down before starting, and the repair is covered by our 30-day workmanship warranty.

What should I do if a burner stays on high?
Switch the range off at the breaker and call us. The switch contacts have probably welded closed. We replace the switch and check the element and receptacle for damage from the extra heat.
A knob spins but nothing changes. Is the switch bad?
Often the knob or the switch stem is worn, so the knob no longer drives the switch. It is an inexpensive part, and we check that the switch itself still works.
Why would a hard door seal matter?
A hardened seal does not close tightly, so heat leaks out and the oven cooks slowly or unevenly. Replacing it is a short job and can fix the problem on its own.
