    ok good deal. Then both your black and white are the hots. You should be able to tie the whites and grounds together. But some stoves do require a separate neutral. So in that case you would need to run a new wire.

    On your new stove the black and the red are the hots.

    The first question is the wire you have, where did it come from.
