Common Symptoms
- Broil element does not heat or glow red during a broil cycle
- Food takes longer to brown or cook from the top
- Oven heating is uneven when the broil element is required
- Little or no heat during baking when the appliance design uses the broil element during baking or preheating
Check Before Replacing
- With electrical power disconnected and the element fully cool, visually inspect the coil for breaks, holes, blistering, or burn damage.
- Confirm that the element terminals and attached wires are seated and show no obvious heat damage; do not handle wiring while the range is energized.
- If appropriate for the appliance service procedure, test element continuity with a suitable meter only after disconnecting power and isolating the element. An open circuit supports a failed element but does not by itself prove that the element is the only fault.
- Check the appliance model-specific technical documentation before condemning the element, because the control, wiring, or power supply can also prevent heating.
Pro Tip
A broil element may cycle off when the oven door is opened, so check its operation with the door in the position specified by the appliance instructions rather than assuming an open door indicates failure.
