Common Symptoms
- No heat from the cooking element
- Slow or insufficient heating
- Uneven or erratic heating
- Visible coil damage, burn marks, or discoloration
Check Before Replacing
- Disconnect electrical power to the range or cooktop before inspection.
- Confirm the element is fully seated in its receptacle and that the receptacle and terminals show no visible burning or damage.
- Inspect the coil for breaks, cracks, severe discoloration, or other visible damage.
- If qualified to perform electrical testing, test the disconnected element for continuity with a multimeter; no continuity indicates an open element, but continuity alone does not prove the element is good.
Pro Tip
Before replacing the element, verify that it is fully inserted into the receptacle and confirm that the replacement matches the appliance model and element position.
