You guys have always been really helpful to me in the past, so I thought I'd bring my latest problem to you before asking for an expensive service call. The main breaker to my house tripped the other day. After flipping the power back on we checked around and noticed the oven (which was turned on at the time) was no longer heating up - even though the range still works. The buttons to adjust the baking temperature still work, but it just doesn't heat up. The button to switch it to broil won't work at all. My oven is a Frigidaire that's about 6 years old.
Question #1: Does this sound like a new heating element would fix the problem with the oven? If so, is it a DIY kind of project for somebody who's handy with a few basic tools?
Question #2: Should I be concerned that the main breaker tripped, but the individual breaker for the oven didn't?
