YMER8700D

Maytag YMER8700D Electric Oven Repair

Most common issues on this model

  1. Oven that heats unevenly between top and bottom
  2. Surface heat that fades after a few minutes
  3. Knob that spins without changing the heat
  4. Door seal that is torn or flattened in one corner

YMER8700D covers a Maytag electric range that is sold with several endings, including YMER8700DB, YMER8700DE and YMER8700DH. With that many versions in circulation, the last letters really do matter when a replacement switch or coil is needed.

Ranges of this type usually stand in a standard kitchen opening, and Houston humidity is hard on the exposed connections at the back. For a lopsided oven, we test the bake and broil coils separately, then the probe, then the gasket around the door. A seal that has torn in a corner is an easy place for heat to leak.

If the burners fade after a few minutes, we look at the switch contacts and the sockets for carbon. Everything is confirmed against the model and serial on the tag before we order a thing, and you get the price in writing first. Work is warranted for 30 days.

Key features

  • Maytag range that cooks with electricity only

YMER8700DYMER8700D questions
Why do the revision letters on YMER8700D matter so much?

Several versions of this number exist, and finish or small internal parts can differ between them. Reading the full ending off the tag means the coil, switch or probe we bring is the one made for your range.

My burner heats at first and then fades. What causes that?

A switch with burned contacts or a socket with carbon buildup can pass current at first, then lose it as the parts warm. We test both under load and replace whichever lets go.

Is an uneven oven a reason to replace the range?

Seldom. Uneven heat comes from a worn coil, a drifting probe or a leaking gasket, and each is a modest repair. We test them in order so you pay for the part that actually failed.
