Common Symptoms
- Bake element does not heat or glow during a bake cycle.
- Little or no heat from the bottom of the oven.
- Slow or incomplete preheating when the bake element is required.
- Uneven baking attributable to loss of lower-oven heat.
- Visible blistering, cracking, burning, or a break in the element sheath.
Check Before Replacing
- With the range power disconnected, visually inspect the element for cracks, blistering, burn marks, or a visible break.
- After restoring power, select Bake and observe the element from a safe distance; it should begin heating during the cycle. Do not touch the element.
- If the element does not heat, inspect the accessible terminal area for loose or burned connectors only after disconnecting power.
- Confirm that the issue is specific to Bake mode and is not simply a general oven-control or temperature-sensor problem.
Pro Tip
A bake element can fail while the broil element still works; compare Bake-mode operation rather than assuming the entire oven heating system has failed.

Installation Notes
- Disconnect electrical power at the range’s circuit breaker or fuse before beginning work.
- Remove the oven racks for access and allow the oven to cool completely.
- The element is secured at the rear of the oven and its electrical connectors should be disconnected only after power is removed.
- Pull the element forward carefully so the attached wires do not fall back through the rear wall.
- Reconnect the wires to the replacement element, secure it using the existing mounting points, and restore power only after the element is installed.
- Follow the appliance-specific service or owner documentation if access or mounting differs.
