Maytag MER5755AA Electric Cooktop Repair

Most common issues on this model

Drip bowls or trim rings burned through
Spilled food carbonized around a socket
Coil that no longer sits flat in its socket
Burner that heats slowly after a boil-over

The MER5755AA is a Maytag electric range with an electric cooktop and oven, also listed as the MER5755AAB, MER5755AAQ and MER5755AAW. A boil-over is the most ordinary kitchen accident, and on an electric cooktop it can reach more than the stain you see on top.

When liquid or grease runs under a surface burner, it can carbonize around the socket, cloud the contacts and weaken the connection to the coil. We lift the cooktop where the design allows, look for residue and burn marks, and test each burner after cleaning the contacts. Often a socket and a coil are all that need replacing.

We also look at the drip bowls and trim rings, because burned-through ones let more spill reach the parts underneath. We quote in writing before we start, order only what the model plate calls for, and guarantee our workmanship for 30 days.

MER5755AAMER5755AA questions

A pot boiled over onto my cooktop. Can it damage the range?

It can. Liquid that reaches the socket carbonizes and weakens the connection to the coil. We clean the contacts, test the burner and replace the socket or coil if they are damaged.

Why does a burner heat slowly after a spill?

Residue on the contacts adds resistance, so the coil receives less power. Cleaning or replacing the socket restores full heat, and we check the burner switch at the same visit.

Should I replace drip bowls myself?

You can, and fresh bowls help keep spills from reaching the socket. If a socket already looks burned, have the burner checked before you use it again.
