Parts for Ge JTP48WF3WW: 01 - Control Panel Parts

This bimetal limit thermostat is a temperature-safety control that interrupts power when oven temperature rises above its design point, protecting the appliance and helping maintain safe operation. What it does:

• Acts as an over-temperature cutoff that opens when the internal sensor reaches its trip temperature
• Prevents continued heating during an overheat condition
• Can stop heating element operation or clock/regulator cycling when the limit is open
• Common symptom: oven or broil element stops coming on or oven heats uncontrollably before shutting down

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Access typically requires removing the oven back panel or control housing; follow the service manual for your model
• Note and label wiring before removal to ensure correct reconnection

The Thermal Fuse is an OEM part for GE ranges. This component is a safety device to protect the range from overheating. It is located in the electrical circuit and acts as a fail-safe to cut off the power supply to the range if it detects excessive heat.

Causes of a faulty thermal fuse can include power surges, overheating due to prolonged use, or other electrical issues. When the fuse blows, it interrupts the electrical flow, preventing potential damage to the range's sensitive components and ensuring user safety.

Symptoms of a bad fuse may include:

• The range not turning on or functioning at all.
• The oven not heating up or not reaching the desired temperature.
• The range displaying error codes related to temperature issues.

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.
