The Oven Bake Element is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. It is a component responsible for providing the heat necessary for baking and cooking. This element is located at the bottom of the oven and heats up when electricity is applied, allowing for consistent cooking temperatures.

Symptoms of a bad Oven Bake Element include:

  • Uneven baking results or undercooked food
  • Lack of heat generation even though the oven is turned on
  • Visible damage to the element such as blistering, cracks, or breaks

Causes of a bad element can stem from natural wear and tear, excessive cooking temperatures overextending the element's capacity, or electrical issues causing the element to fail prematurely.

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

Answer

Ken, the element is testing within tolerance where it will be able to heat indicating the most likely failure to be the main control W10831410. To verify this, while accessing the unit from the back panel, the unit can be placed in bake and tested for 240VAC, if the element does not receive 240VAC, then the bake relay can be tested for voltage output by going to connection CON2 pin 7 (brown wire) to CON4 pin 1 (red wire) and if there is not 240VAC at this point the main control has failed. If there is 240VAC, then there is a wire issue that would need to be addressed.
