Maytag MES5875BA Kitchen Range Repair

Most common issues on this model

Oven that gets too hot in the first minutes
Surface element that works only in some positions of the knob
Display that shows a stuck or wrong time
Door that opens too easily or sticks

The MES5875BA is a Maytag electric range, with the cooktop and the oven both on electricity. It is also sold as MES5875BAB, MES5875BAF and MES5875BAN, and one more ending. The final letters on the label identify which version you have.

A range like this is typically set between cabinets in a Houston kitchen and fed from a heavy outlet. If the oven overheats in the first minutes, the bake element may be staying on because the sensor reports a low temperature, so we test the sensor first. A burner that works only in some knob positions points to the switch contacts. A stuck clock may need a fresh power reset and a look at the display board.

The range tag gives the full model and serial, and we confirm both before we order a part. We write the price down ahead of the work, and our repair is guaranteed for 30 days.

MES5875BAMES5875BA questions

The oven on my MES5875BA gets too hot early in the cycle. What is wrong?

Usually the sensor reads low and the control keeps the element on. We check the sensor resistance, compare the oven with a thermometer and replace the sensor if it is off.

A burner works only at some knob positions. What does that mean?

The contacts inside the infinite switch have worn. The burner may work at some positions and not at others. We test the switch and replace it, as the element is often still good.

The door on my range sticks when I open it. Can that be fixed?

Yes. It may be a bent hinge, a worn gasket that grips the frame, or a stiff spring. We inspect the door, adjust or replace the part and check the seal afterward.
