Bob,
You're completely right about the ballpark of a total failure..
Anyhow, I would check the correct operation of the oven; the 10811 oven
draws about 500mA cold, which goes down to about 150mA after 15 minutes,
when it's warm.
I'd also check the continuity / resistance of the NTC, which can easily
be accessed by just opening the metal top cover (leaving the 2 screws
for the connctor alone), and gently pulling off the styrofoam lid.
