Parts for Ge PCT916DR2BB: 01 - Control Panel Parts

The Oven Control and Display is an OEM part for GE wall ovens and ranges. It is the central processing unit that governs all oven functions including temperature, bake/broil settings, timers and warming features. This control receives inputs from interior sensors, knobs and buttons to regulate heat accurately.

Causes can be failure of electronic components from prolonged use. Exposure to excess heat, moisture or spills over time also degrades control performance.

Symptoms of a bad control include:

• Inability to set or change oven temperature
• Timer and display errors or malfunctions
• Unresponsive knobs or buttons
• Failure to begin or end bake/broil cycles

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

The Fan Kit is an OEM part for GE ovens and ranges. This part regulates the internal temperatures and preventing overheating.

Causes of a bad Fan Kit can stem from motor failure due to wear and tear, obstructions or debris blocking proper airflow, or damage to the fan blades or housing.

Symptoms of a bad Fan Kit include:

• Excessive heat buildup inside the oven cavity
• Failure of the oven to maintain consistent temperatures
• Strange noises or lack of airflow from the fan

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

This bimetal limit switch monitors a radiant surface element's temperature and opens the circuit if it overheats, helping your cooktop maintain safe, consistent heating while protecting wiring and controls from damage. What it does:

• Senses surface element temperature via a bimetal sensor
• Opens/closes the circuit to limit element temperature and prevent overheating
• Helps the burner cycle properly for more consistent heat
• Common symptoms: no heat, low heat/cycles off too soon, overheating, or erratic cycling

• One bimetal limit switch

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Access the element, note wire positions, and transfer leads to the new switch one at a time
• Mount firmly to the element/bracket so the sensor has correct contact
• Do not bend or adjust the sensor; replace if damaged

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. 

This top insulation retainer secures oven/range insulation in place behind the cooktop or control panel so insulation stays put and helps maintain safe, even operation. It's a small but important fastener for proper internal fit. What it does:

• Holds top insulation or thermal blanket securely to the appliance chassis
• Prevents insulation from shifting, sagging, or contacting hot components
• Helps reduce heat transfer and maintains proper airflow around elements
• Commonly replaced when clips are broken, missing, or insulation is loose

• Basic hand tools may be required; inspect surrounding insulation and panels for damage before reassembly
• Replace only with the correct retainer to ensure proper fit and securement
• Disconnect power or gas and allow appliance to cool before accessing internal components

This oven exhaust duct channels hot air and cooking fumes out of the oven cavity to the range venting system, helping maintain proper oven temperature and reduce smoke or odors. Replace a damaged or corroded duct to restore correct venting. What it does:

• Directs hot air and combustion/steam fumes from the oven cavity into the vent ductwork
• Helps maintain consistent oven temperature by providing a clear exhaust path
• Can reduce smoke, burning smells, or poor broil performance when functioning properly
• Prevents loose metal or debris from obstructing the vent path

• One oven exhaust duct

• Disconnect power to the range (and gas supply if applicable) before beginning work
• Access typically requires removing the oven back panel or range back; keep fasteners for reinstallation
• Watch for sharp sheet-metal edges and wear gloves and eye protection
• Reinstall panels and secure all fasteners; test oven operation and venting after replacement

This replacement screw is used in refrigerators to fasten specific components. Replace a lost or damaged fastener to restore a secure, factory hold so brackets, panels, or covers stay properly mounted and rattle-free.

• Secures the designated component per your model's parts diagram
• Replaces missing, stripped, or corroded hardware
• Helps eliminate looseness, vibration, or rattling from unsecured parts
• Supports proper alignment and fit after service

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Match this screw to the original location using your model's parts diagram
• Hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without overtightening
• Use the correct driver for the screw head style

This replacement screw secures appliance components and helps keep panels, brackets, and controls firmly attached for reliable operation. It's a simple, direct fix when a mounting screw is missing, loose, or stripped. What it does:

• Fastens panels, trim, brackets or electrical components to reduce movement and rattling.
• Restores proper alignment of parts that shift when a screw is missing or worn.
• Helps maintain electrical and mechanical connections by keeping components seated.
• Common symptom: loose or vibrating panels, trim gaps, or visibly missing hardware.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing internal components.
• Use the correct screwdriver or driver bit to avoid stripping the head.
• Thread gently and avoid overtightening to prevent stripping the mating threads or cracking surrounding parts.
• Keep any removed hardware organized to ensure placement of all required fasteners during reassembly.

This lubricant/cleaner is used during service of cooking appliances to dissolve residue and provide light lubrication on small moving parts. It helps restore smoother operation of control shafts and valves when burner knobs feel stiff or sticky. What it does:

• Cleans deposits and old grease from control shafts and valve components
• Provides light lubrication to reduce friction and sticking
• Helps address symptoms such as hard-to-turn burner knobs or rough valve rotation
• Supports preventative maintenance during range/cooktop service

• Lubricant/cleaner

• Disconnect power and shut off gas; allow the appliance to cool before servicing
• Work in a well-ventilated area and keep away from open flames or ignition sources
• Apply sparingly per service instructions; avoid contact with igniters, electrical components, and flame ports
• Replace any worn or leaking valve—do not rely on lubricant/cleaner to correct a leak
