11 year old oven wasn't heating properly. Bottom element crumbled when I touched it. Replaced bottom element. Still wouldn't get above 200F, and takes it forever to get there.
Replaced heat sensor in oven. Didn't fix it.
Replaced electronic panel on top. Didn't fix it.
Checked breaker and power cord, both good.
Pulled panel off back of stove, started checking wires. Heat sensor checks 1097 ohms. Top element 19 ohms, bottom 24.
Found a yellow wire running from back of control panel down to where bottom element sticks through, but the yellow wire wasn't hooked to anything on the other end. I don't recall any yellow wire being attached to bottom element when I changed it.
Cannot find wiring diagram for stove.
Where does this wire go and is this my problem??
Thanks for your help

The yellow was the oven temp sensor. Thanks.
