If the old element shorted out, the first thig I would do is verify 240 volts at the back of the oven broil terminals when set to broil (it was the broil element, right?). Sometimes the short can take out the thermostat contacts or Bake/Briol switch contacts if so equipped, and also can trip half the breaker, leading you to think something is wrong. Fully reset the breaker first then measure the power.
