Kenmore Induction Stove DANGER! Fire Hazard!

My wife was up at 6 am and heard the stove Beep she then noticed the two left stove top elements were powered on to the PB setting. Fortunately there were no pots or metal on the cooksurface as the elements were both "Live" and would have heated and metal on the surface. She then had me look and l saw the same, putting a pot of water on the element it would begin to heat up. Turning the control and the temperature settings were all working but could not be shut off.
I pulled the breaker and...

GE model ZET958SM1SS

Started upper oven and it was working. Tried to start lower oven and it not only didn’t start but it shut down upper oven. Control panel when blank. Tried to restart upper oven and the panel goes blank once you hit the “start” button.
Definitely something associated with lower oven cause this issue. Help. Jeff

MCS130S Dacor oven doesn't heat even though heating element is good

Hi, I have a 7 year old Dacor Millennia wall oven (Model number MSC130S) which my wife tells me takes too long to heat up.

Broil element glows red, but not the bake element. Bake element measures 25 ohms, and appears to be in good shape. Volt meter on the wires which connected to the back element before I removed it seems to transition between 4 and 40 volts.

Recommendations? Thank you

10431-2 Moffat electric range Replacement thermostat for 20-yo elec range?

The oven went out on my circa-1999 Moffat electric range. (Moffat is a member of the GE brand family in Canada.) With "bake" selected the oven warms but does not heat and the indicator oven light doesn't activate. With "broil" selected the indicator light comes on, but zero heat.

Am I right to diagnose this as a failure of the 3-wire thermostat?

Anyone have advice on an affordable replacement part? The original part -- GE WG02F05823 -- appears to no longer be available.

Whirlpool part...
