RESET button on electric stoves ??

Question

I have always had GAS stoves.Sometimes friends ask me for help in fixing a problem. Hence my question. In today's paper, a guy reported about his dead stove ( obviously electric ) that he tried to RESET the breaker and when that did not work he had to callthe repairman  >>>"Technician pulled the unit out of the cabinet about 6 inches, hit the overloadbutton and slid everything back into place. He was done in 3 minutes and wroteme a bill for $142.50"This post is NOT about the cost and time involved.1) Do all or most ELECTRIC stoves have RESET/OVERLOAD buttons ? 2) WHERE are they normally located ?? This sounds like it was a wall oven. How about a normal standing on the floor model ?TIA
