Last Thursday I was trying to cook something in the oven and was wondering why it wasn't cooking like it should be -- then looked in and noticed the lower element was shorting out and sparking like an arc wielder.
They delivered the new range this afternoon. Brought it in, hooked it up, and were about to leave. Said, "just a moment" and turned the breaker back on. Good thing I did that because nothing happened. They double checked their installation of the new cord onto the range and it was ok. Only thing they can think of is that when the element shorted it fried the plug; prongs on the old plug aren't burnt so that was a bit confusing, and they said it was a good thing I noticed because it should have flipped the breaker but didn't. Or -- as I'm typing this out -- perhaps it did and the breaker just isn't resetting. <sigh> electricity is out of my wheelhouse
So, tomorrow I get to call an electrician, and hopefully find one working.
