Bosch oven stopped working

16 years ago

I have a 5 year old Bosch freestanding range that has never had any problems. I baked a pie shell today at 475 and then turned the oven off while I prepared the pie filling. When I tried to turn it on again, the burner didn't work. Yet the stove top burners and even the broiler works. What could have happened to the oven?

You don't mention the model or if it's All Gas, All Electric, or Dual Fuel.
All Gas - it's probably the glow bar igniter for the flame tube. Glow bars usually last about 5 - 8 years under moderate usage. All manufacturers pretty much use the same glow bar with the difference being the mounting brackets.

All Electric - Possibly a bad bake element.

Dual Fuel - Possibly a bad bake element.

The information above is general to all ranges not just the Bosch.

The only thing I could think of is that the element burned out. But I would suggest going to the breaker panel, turn off the stove breaker, count to 5, then turn it back on. Then go see if the oven works.
