5 Hello there, below is the possibility for the oven not to shut off. 1) The reason that it wont shut off is that the element is broken and shorting to the case of the oven and running on 110V. Shut off the breakers or remove the fuses. If you are in the U.S. the breakers will be double 50 Amp. If you are handy, you can replace the element. Its not difficult, but if you arent, call for service before turning it back on. It sounds to me like your stove is not grounded properly or it should have blown the breaker. http://appliancequickfix.com/ can explain more about how your stove works. Please be carefull. 2) The most likely cause for this problem is a shorted oven control. Shut off your stove breaker (a double 30 or 40 amp Bkr) at the main pannel and have the control tested. The reason I don't think the element could be shorted is that in that case there would be sparks and then a blown breaker or fuse, then no more heat. The fact that it is heating (I assume normally) is that the control is erroneousely calling for the heat because of malfunction. Hope the above information is going to help you a bit. Thank You.
