Samsung Oven Not Heating? Bake Element DG47-00038B – Fix No-Heat & Uneven Baking Fast
If your Samsung electric range oven won't heat, bakes unevenly, or takes far too long to preheat, a failed bake element is the most common cause — and this is the exact part to fix it. In most Samsung NE59-series electric ranges, the bake element sits at the bottom of the oven cavity and provides the primary heat source for every bake and broil cycle. When it fails — due to a visible break, internal open circuit, or burn spot — the oven may heat partially, not at all, or produce hot and cold spots that ruin baking results. ⚡ One of the most common failure points in Samsung electric ranges. Part DG47-00038B is the genuine OEM replacement (and our premium XPart aftermarket alternative) that restores full, even oven heat immediately.
❓ Is This the Right Part?
This is the correct fix if ALL of the following are true:
- ✔ Range powers on — clock, display, and surface burners work normally
- ✔ Broil element (top) heats correctly — only the bake (bottom) is the issue
- ✔ No error codes on the display related to the control board or temperature sensor
- ✔ ONLY problem is oven not heating, heating slowly, or baking unevenly from the bottom

🔧 Common Symptoms
- Oven not heating or heating very slowly
- Element not glowing red when the oven is on
- Uneven baking — food burns on top but is raw on the bottom
- Visible cracks, burn holes, or blistering on the element surface
✔ If these symptoms match, this is the most likely failed component in the system.
✔ In most cases, replacing this bake element restores full, even oven heat immediately.

🛠 Buying Options
- OEM / New: Original Samsung factory part — guaranteed fit, form, and function. Same part installed at the factory.
- XPart / New: Our premium aftermarket alternative — built to meet or exceed OEM specs at a lower price. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Samsung.
- Used (OEM or XPart): Pulls from working appliances, inspected before listing. Ideal for temporary repairs or when new stock is unavailable.
While the oven is open, test the oven temperature sensor (part NX58 series sensor) with a multimeter — a faulty sensor can mimic a bad bake element by causing the oven to underheat or overheat even after element replacement. Replacing both at the same time eliminates the two most common causes of Samsung oven heating failures in a single service call.
⚙️ Installation
Skill Level: EASY — 15–20 minutes. Disconnect power at the breaker (240V) before beginning — this is a high-voltage component. Allow the element to cool completely. Remove the two mounting screws at the rear of the element, pull it gently forward, and disconnect the two terminal wires — note or photograph wire positions before disconnecting. Reconnect terminals firmly to the new element, push it back into position, reinstall screws, restore power, and run a bake cycle to confirm the repair.

💡 Pro Tip
Before purchasing, grab a multimeter and test the existing element for continuity — set it to resistance (ohms) and touch the probes to each terminal. A working bake element reads 20–50 ohms. A reading of OL (open loop / no continuity) confirms the element has failed internally and needs replacement, even if it looks intact from the outside. This 60-second test eliminates guesswork and ensures you're ordering the right part.
