Symptoms of a bad 8 Inch Burner Bowl include:

• Poor fit on the stove, affecting stability of pots and pans
• Difficulty in cleaning due to excessive staining or corrosion
• Reduced heating efficiency if the bowl no longer reflects heat effectively

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

This support rod restores stable support and alignment for the designated assembly in your range, helping keep components secure and reducing unwanted movement or sagging over time. What it does:

• Provides rigid support for the attached component or panel
• Replaces a bent, missing, or corroded rod to restore proper fit
• Helps reduce rattling, sagging, or misalignment
• Direct-fit replacement to match the original support geometry

• 1 support rod

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, shut off gas; allow the appliance to cool completely
• Support the related assembly while removing the old rod to prevent dropping
• Transfer any clips or retainers from the original part if present and reinstall in the same orientation
• Secure attachment and clearances before returning the appliance to service

This rubber rangetop bumper cushions and supports the cooktop, reducing vibration and protecting the surface from metal-on-metal contact. It helps restore proper spacing and reduces rattling or chafing from loose or missing bumpers. What it does:

• Cushions the cooktop edge to prevent scratching and wear
• Keeps the cooktop and rangetop components properly spaced and stable
• Reduces rattling, vibration, and noise during use
• Commonly replaced when bumpers are cracked, flattened, missing, or allow movement

• Remove power to the appliance and allow all surfaces to cool before servicing.
• Access may require lifting or removing the cooktop; follow manufacturer instructions for your model.
• Replace with the same style bumper to maintain proper fit and spacing.
• Use care around sharp edges.

This maintop strike is the small latch plate the cooktop engages with to stay secured and aligned. Replacing a bent or missing strike restores a snug-fitting main top and proper engagement with the latch mechanism.

• Provides the engagement point for the main top's latch mechanism
• Helps keep the cooktop seated and aligned to reduce movement and rattling
• Can correct issues like the top not staying down or visible gaps at the front edge
• Supports proper actuation of any associated latch/safety switch, when applicable

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) and allow the appliance to cool before servicing
• Open/raise the cooktop per the unit's design and support it safely
• Remove the old strike and align the new strike in the same position; reuse existing mounting hardware if applicable
• Tighten fasteners securely and test latch engagement before restoring power

This wire clip secures a wiring harness to the appliance cabinet to prevent rubbing, pinching, or loose connections. Replacing a worn or broken clip helps restore proper wire routing and reduces the risk of electrical contact issues. What it does:

• Holds wiring harnesses in place to prevent chafing and stress on connections
• Keeps wires routed away from sharp edges, moving parts, and heat sources
• Helps stop intermittent electrical problems caused by loose or strained wires
• Reduces risk of arcing or shorting from wires rubbing on metal components

• One wire clip

• Always disconnect power (unplug or switch off circuit breaker) before servicing electrical components
• Remove any panels or obstructions to access the damaged clip, then release the harness and snap the replacement clip into the original mounting location
• Verify wires are seated properly in the clip and routed clear of moving or hot parts before restoring power
• If wiring or connectors are damaged, replace or repair those components rather than relying on the clip alone

This right-side main top wiring harness routes power and control signals to the cooktop's switches, burners and ignitors so the surface elements operate reliably. It replaces a damaged or worn top harness to restore proper electrical connections. What it does

• Carries power and signal between the console/switches and right-side surface elements or igniters.
• Enables ignition and heat control for the right-side burners when intact.
• Commonly associated with symptoms like a non-working or intermittent right burner, no spark/ignition at the right surface element, or visible burned/damaged wires.
• Replaces a faulty harness that shows frayed wires, melted insulation, or loose/broken connector pins.

• One right-side main top wiring harness (WB18T10544) as shown.
