✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Oven does not heat during bake.

• Bake element has a visible break, crack, blister, or burn mark.

Check Before Replacing

• With electrical power disconnected, visually inspect the element and its terminals for a break, crack, blistering, or burned connection.
• Confirm the range has electrical power and that the circuit breaker has not tripped before attributing the symptom to the element.
• During a controlled bake test, observe whether the lower bake element produces heat; do not touch the element or allow objects to contact it.
• If using an electrical meter, continuity/resistance testing should be performed only with the appliance disconnected from power and by a qualified or properly trained person.

Installation Notes

• Disconnect electrical power by unplugging the range or switching off its circuit breaker before service.
• Remove the oven racks and the panel or cover that conceals the bake element, as applicable to the appliance design.
• Pull the element forward carefully before disconnecting its two terminals; prevent the wires from falling back into the oven wall.
• Reconnect both terminals securely, reinstall the retaining screws and any removed oven-bottom cover, then restore power and test the bake function.
• Verify the appliance model and terminal/physical configuration before installation; do not force a misaligned element into place.
