    Toaster

    in Small Appliance Repair

    The top heating element won't heat up. Anyone know how to fix it?

    Assume it's a toaster oven and not a pop-up toaster. Make and model?

    Yep it’s a toaster oven. Black and Decker Toast-R-oven

    Model number: TRO490w

    The bottom heats so we can eliminate the cord. Are the top heaters metal tubes or quartz tubes? If metal, can you feel any burned spots by running your fingers along the tubes? Usually the top elements were connected in series, so if one burned out, neither would heat.

    Have you removed the right end covering to look for burned connections at the ends of the heaters, or burned contacts on a selector switch?
