Maytag MER5570AA Electric Range Repair

Most common issues on this model

Surface element that takes several minutes to glow
Oven light that is out or flickers
Bake element that heats but the oven stays cool
Oven that smokes on first heat after sitting unused
Switch that makes a buzzing sound

You may see the MER5570AA described as a Maytag electric range, and the same number is also listed as MER5570AAA, MER5570AAQ and MER5570AAW. The AA ending is shared with several other Maytag ranges, but the four digits tell us which parts apply.

A buzzing switch is worth attention because the noise comes from a contact that is arcing slightly, and the repair is to replace the switch before it burns the wire at its terminals. When the bake element heats but the oven stays cool, the cause is often a door that does not seal, or an element that is only partly working, so we test both. An oven that smokes after sitting unused usually has spilled food burning off, and we make sure that is all it is.

Our routine is the same on every call: test, explain, quote in writing and repair. Our 30-day workmanship warranty applies to the work.

MER5570AAMER5570AA questions

A burner switch buzzes. Should I worry?

Yes. Buzzing means the contact is arcing slightly, and the heat can burn the wire at the terminals. Replacing the switch early is cheaper than repairing the burned wiring that follows.

Why is my oven cool when the element glows?

The element may only be partly working, or the door is not sealing and heat escapes. We test the element along its length and check the gasket and hinges.

The oven smoked when I turned it on after months. Is it broken?

Often it is only old spills burning off. We check the cavity for debris and confirm that the elements and wiring show no damage, so you can use the oven with confidence.
