Maytag MER6550BC Electric Stove Repair

Most common issues on this model

A cooktop that heats on only some burners
An oven that overshoots the set temperature
A broiler slow to glow
A panel that works only part of the time

Meet the MER6550BC, a Maytag electric stove. Its relatives are listed as MER6550BCQ and MER6550BCW. It runs entirely on electricity, so plan on a standard kitchen spot between cabinets with a heavy-duty outlet behind it.

When only some burners heat, the supply to the range gets our attention first. A loose connection at the terminal block can leave certain elements underpowered, and it is cheap to correct once found. Afterward we test the individual elements and switches. For an oven that overshoots, the sensor and the control are first in line, followed by the bake element.

A panel that works only part of the time often has a tired connection behind it, and we test that before replacing the board. Since other endings exist, we read the complete number and serial from the label before ordering. Written price first, then work, then a 30-day warranty.

MER6550BCMER6550BC questions

Only two of my four burners work on my MER6550BC. Where do you look?

We start at the power supply and terminal block, then test each element and switch. A loose terminal can starve some elements, so it is checked before any parts are replaced.

My oven runs hotter than the setting. What is the fix?

We compare the oven with a thermometer and test the temperature sensor and control. A drifting sensor is a frequent cause on electric ranges of this type, and replacing it is quick.

The control panel acts up at times. Is the board bad?

Not always. Loose connections behind the panel can do the same thing. We test the connections and the supply first, so you only pay for a board if it has really failed.
