Customer Questions and Answers for Bake Element by Ge

The Bake Element is an OEM part for GE ovens. It is responsible for providing the necessary heat for baking by radiating heat from the bottom of the oven. It measures 18 1/4"" side to side, 15-1/2" from the mounting bracket to the back, and 3" from the terminal to the back plate, with 1/4"male spade terminals.

You should replace the bake element if it becomes damaged or fails to heat properly. Causes of a bad bake element can include regular wear and tear, electrical malfunctions, or physical damage such as cracking or breaking.

Symptoms of a bad bake element include:

• The oven not heating evenly or at all
• Visible damage or blistering on the element
• Sparking or electrical shorts when the oven is in use
• Longer baking times or undercooked food

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
