Over time, bake elements can wear out or fail due to regular use, exposure to high temperatures, or accidental damage during cleaning. 

Symptoms of a bad bake element include:

• Oven not heating to the set temperature
• Uneven cooking or baking results
• Visible signs of damage such as burns, blisters, or breaks in the element
• The element not glowing red when in use

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

Symptoms of a bad broil pan set include:

• Warping or bending of the pan
• Presence of rust or corrosion
• Surface chipping or flaking
• Difficulty in achieving even cooking results

• Start by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without over-torquing
• Retain and reinstall any original clips, spacers, or washers used in your model

This oven temperature probe senses the cooking cavity temperature so the range control can regulate heat for accurate baking and roasting. It replaces a failed or intermittent sensor to restore correct temperature feedback. What it does:

• Measures oven temperature and sends the signal to the control board for proper heating control
• Helps correct symptoms such as oven not reaching set temperature, inconsistent baking, or temperature error codes
• Provides the oven control with the feedback needed for timed cooking and self-clean cycles
• Replaces a damaged or open/shorted probe that causes incorrect temperature readings

• One temperature probe

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before servicing to avoid shock
• Handle the sensor and connector gently to avoid damage; route and secure wiring as originally installed
• Reconnect wiring fully and verify secure connection; test oven function and temperature accuracy after installation
