It does sound like the heat in your oven is not evenl distributed. I had an old gas stove that cooked that way. I had to cook at a higher temp and to compensate for the edge getting more done than the center I had to put a strip of aluminum foil around the outer edge as you are supposed to do to pies to prevent the outer crust from getting to well done.
The problem that I had with that oven was the door did not seal properly when shut and the insulation around the oven box had fallen off causing cool spots in the oven.
The harness, especially the portion where the coils plug into it, could be a problem and causing your oven to have cool spots the same way.
.
Oh no, I hope this problem isn't as simple as the door not sealing properly, after what I've just been through. I thought the harness would be the end of it. Now, if it isn't, it isn't over. I will have to consider the door seal. I'm taking real deep breaths right now.  The door seal didn't cause the smelly elements, though. Gotta keep that in mind. It just has to be the harness. Enuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Oh Boy! A smashing party. We can have a smashing good time.
Does that include the chocolate chip cookies that were baked in it?

If partially cooked cookies are smashable, then yes! Since we'll be having a smashing party, bring some things. I'm sure I can come up with some others too that have given me past headaches. |

PR,
Couldn't you have replaced the seal on your oven door, and the insulation around the oven box?

I could have but it was an old standing pilot light type stove probably as old as I am and beat up worse than I am so I didn't bother. Instead I eventually replaced it. |

OK...............I guess I just might have to do it. Have too much money into that thing not to do it, that is, if the harness doesn't change anything. I sure hope it does, though. I don't need this headache, nor do I need the rash I developed, either. I'm laughing, even though it isn't funny. |

I probably would have tried to rescue it myself. |

I probably would have tried to rescue it myself. ] I didn't see this post. Wonder how many others I haven't seen? I said my stove is 5 years old?  Where did I say that? I was supposed to type in 8 years old, 'cause that's how old it is. I probably would have tried to rescue it myself? ? Do you mean you would have gone about trying to repair it yourself, like I did? I'm a little bit corn-fused here at the moment. I'll just blame that on something...................the time of night, the week (s) I've had, etc. |

I wasn't sure you said 5 yrs thats the reason for the question mark, I didn't take the time to look back. Even at 8 yrs I still would have tried to rescue it. A stoves lifespan is supposed to be set at 15 to 20 yrs so at 8 yrs it is worth getting it fixed is what I meant. With the the cost I probably would have done it myself also.
