MER5730BGW
Maytag MER5730BGW Electric Range Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Surface elements that stay cold or heat unevenly
- Burner switches that click but give no heat
- Oven that runs hotter or cooler than the setting
- Door that no longer closes tight against the frame
The MER5730BGW is a Maytag electric range, so the cooktop and the oven both run on electricity and there is no gas line behind it. Ranges of this type usually sit between two runs of cabinets in a kitchen, plugged into a heavy-duty outlet on the wall behind the unit.
When a cooktop burner will not heat, we first swap the element into a working position to see whether the coil or the burner switch has failed, then check the socket the coil plugs into for burn marks. In the oven we test the bake element, the temperature sensor and the door seal before we suggest any part.
Before ordering we copy the whole model and serial line off the rating plate, because the final letters can change which part fits. The quote is put in writing before we start, and the work is warranted for 30 days.

Why would one burner on my electric range stop heating while the others work?
The coil, its socket or the burner switch is usually the cause. We move the coil to a working position and inspect the socket for scorching, which shows within minutes whether a simple coil swap solves it.
Can an electric range oven run too hot without a broken part?
Yes, the sensor can drift, and a worn door seal lets heat escape. We compare the oven with a separate thermometer first, then check the sensor reading and the gasket before suggesting any replacement.
Can parts still be found for a range like the MER5730BGW?
Elements, switches, sensors and gaskets for electric ranges of this type are widely available. We check the whole number first, then quote the parts and labor in writing.
