If the oven does not heat in bake or broil, it is most likely the TOD thermostat located on the back of the oven. This is the most common failure, especially after using the self clean feature, or if the power goes out during baking. The oven remains hot but the cooing fan stops due to no power.
If both broiling and baking element are not heating, then the most common fault causing the problem is a defective temperature probe.
The probe is located inside the oven cavity. On most ovens there is only one temperature sensor, connected in line on the circuit from electroning oven control to baking and broiling element. When the probe fails, it will affect both baking and broiling function.
The temperature probe is tested reching the probe, cutting or disconnecting its wiring, and testing the probe at room temperature, with a multimeter set on impedance at Rx1. If the multimeter reads no continuity (circuit open), then the probe must be replaced.
If the temperature probe is good, then parts that may be responsible for the fault are oven electronic control and wiring. Having both elements failing at the same time would be rather unusual.
