    You need to trace back and see where that yellow goes. This is not at all typical in the US pr Canada.

    If you provide the make and model number of the old oven, perhaps the diagram can be found to determine what the yellow connected to in the oven.

    Is there a diagram on or in the oven? There usually is one someplace.

    Maybe I am confused. Is the yellow wire in the wall?

    It could be, and I assume it is, but I also assume it was connected to something on the old oven.
