Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Bake cycle does not produce normal heat.
• Oven may fail to reach baking temperature or bake unevenly.
• The exposed lower element is visibly cracked, blistered, or damaged.

Check Before Replacing

• With the oven set to Bake, observe whether the lower bake element warms; lack of heat alone does not conclusively identify the element as the cause.
• After disconnecting electrical power and allowing the oven to cool completely, visually inspect the exposed lower element for cracking, blistering, or other visible damage.
• Confirm the symptom occurs specifically in Bake mode; the separate upper broil element serves a different oven function.
