They obviously think that they really have something there. |

If I remember correctly, that's it - the broiler element gets powered on from the moment the oven is turned on until the broil and bake elements cycle off when baking heat is obtained. I had a Canadian-made 1957 one that looked a lot like this - it still had an open-coil style of broiler element; if this one has one, too, there's a darn good chance the broil element is broken somewhere. |

Yeah, I was thinking maybe they never used the broiler, and that it's got a broken coil.
Unless the oven doesn't heat up at all on the PH setting, but maybe the PH circuitry requires an unbroken broiler element in order to operate.
My question is, why have the PH function require its own setting? Just PH when the oven is turned on and that's that. |
