A replacement limit switch that helps prevent overheating by cutting power when temperature reaches a set point. Fits into the appliance's temperature control/safety system to keep operation safer and more reliable. What it does:

• Acts as a temperature-activated safety cutoff to stop heating when temperatures exceed safe limits
• Helps appliances recover from overheating by interrupting power to heating elements or circuits
• Can cause loss of heat, intermittent heating, or failure to reach temperature when faulty
• Commonly used in ranges/ovens to protect internal components and maintain safe operation

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Handle electrical connectors and terminals carefully; note wiring location before removal
• Minor disassembly of the appliance's control or access panel may be required for access

• Changes state to allow or interrupt power when the limit is reached
• Common failure symptoms: self-clean won't start or complete, oven won't heat/start, or door lock-related error codes
• May fail a continuity test or lose its distinct "click" when actuated

• Disconnect power before service; allow appliance to cool completely
• Access and mounting vary by model—take photos and transfer wires one at a time
• Mount in the same orientation; ensure the actuator/lever aligns with the mechanism and is not bent
• After installation, verify switch operation with a continuity test while actuating the mechanism

The Broiler Pan Kit is an OEM part for GE ranges. It serves as a secure platform for positioning meats, vegetables, and various foods directly beneath the broiler element, ensuring safe and efficient cooking. The pan is about 17 inches wide by 13 inches deep.

Over time, wear and tear can affect broiler pans, causing issues such as flaking or stripping of the non-stick coating and the development of small ridges or holes that permit grease to drip down.

Symptoms of bad broiler pans include:

• Grease fires caused by dripping grease contacting the heating element
• A burnt or smoky flavor transferring to foods
• Difficulty removing baked-on grease and food deposits
• Pans that are misshapen or developing small cracks

This OEM GE replacement part is also compatible with select Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore ranges

The Oven Bake Element is an OEM part for GE ovens. This component is located at the bottom of the oven cavity and is responsible for generating the heat needed for baking. By converting electrical energy into heat, the bake element ensures even temperature distribution throughout the oven, allowing for consistent cooking results. 

Causes of a malfunctioning Oven Bake Element may involve visible signs of wear or damage, like blistering or holes, a break in the element that hinders proper heating, and burnout or malfunctioning resulting from age or excessive use.

Symptoms of a failing Oven Bake Element include:

• The oven not heating to the set temperature
• Uneven baking results
• No visible glow from the element when the oven is turned on
• The oven taking longer than usual to preheat

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

Size: 6 inches long. Includes ceramic wire connectors.

This oven lamp holder is the heat-resistant socket that secures the interior light bulb and connects it to the appliance's wiring, restoring dependable visibility so you can check food and rack positions without opening the door as often.

• Holds and powers the oven light bulb inside the cooking cavity
• Maintains a solid electrical connection to prevent flickering or intermittent lighting
• Replace if the light won't turn on with a known-good bulb
• Also replace if the socket is cracked, charred, loose, or shows signs of arcing

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance; allow the oven to cool completely
