Viking Wall Oven Broil Element Failure
In Viking electric and dual-power wall ovens, the broil element at the top of the oven cavity provides high direct heat for broiling. A failed broil element results in no heat on the Broil setting, though Bake may continue to work. The broil element can fail with or without visible damage to the coil.
What Causes the Broil Element Failure Error?
The broil element resistance wire has burned through at a weak point.
Grease splatter on the broil element accelerates degradation and can cause premature failure.
