The large oven tends to take a longer time to preheat, even though the hidden bake element and the broil element are cycling during the preheat. Also, should the throat elements be coming on to assist pre-heat, or are they only used to convect?

Bake, broil and convection elements are used to preheat. large oven, it needs to heat all that metal. I have been telling my customers for a few years to preheat 45 minutes to allow for best cooking results.The hidden bake element is dual element. We have also seen several element burns out. This will cause slow preheat. Convection elements do not come on during preheat. Only bake elements and broil. Remove lower front panel. You will see element plug. Can ohm out or check amp draw from front of unit.
