Warming Element

The Range Radiant Element is an OEM replacement part for GE ranges. This 5.5-inch element is situated beneath the glass surface of the electric stovetop. It's designed for tasks that require less surface area but still need quick and even heating, such as simmering sauces or cooking smaller portions of food.

Causes for a malfunctioning Range Radiant Element can include electrical issues like faulty wiring or connections, physical damage from spills or heavy cookware, or wear and tear from regular use.

Symptoms of a bad Range Radiant Element include:

• The element failing to heat up or heating unevenly
• Visible damage such as cracks or burns on the element
• Difficulty in maintaining a consistent temperature

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

This radiant bridge element restores heat to the bridge zone on a smooth-top range or cooktop, letting two adjacent burners operate together as one larger cooking area. It replaces a failed element to bring back even, responsive heating.

• Provides the elongated heat source that links two surface elements when the Bridge setting is selected
• Delivers consistent, even heat across larger cookware or griddles
• Replaces a failed or open bridge element to restore normal operation
• Common symptoms: bridge zone won't heat, weak or uneven heating, only works when an adjacent element is on, element tests open

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the cooktop to cool completely before servicing
• Lift the glass top or remove the cooktop per your model's procedure to access the element from below
• Note wire positions; move connections to the new element one at a time and secure with existing hardware

The Haliant Element is an OEM part for GE ranges. It is a high-performance radiant heating element used in the stovetop, designed to provide consistent and efficient heat for cooking. This element heats up quickly and delivers precise temperature control for various cooking tasks.

Over time, the Haliant element can wear out due to repeated heating and cooling cycles, physical damage, or electrical issues. When the element becomes faulty, it can significantly impact the range's cooking performance.

Symptoms of a bad Haliant element include:

• The burner not heating up
• Uneven heating or hot spots
• Visible damage or breaks in the element
• The element cycling on and off irregularly

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

• Helps reduce rattling or gaps caused by a deteriorated or compressed gasket
• Maintains intended airflow paths and helps keep the oven/microwave interior cleaner
• Common symptom: visible wear, cracks or a compressed gasket edge allowing leakage or noise

• One maintop gasket

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any work
• Access usually requires removing the maintop/upper cover—keep fasteners organized
• Clean mating surfaces before installing the new gasket and press into place per OEM alignment; avoid stretching the gasket
• If adhesive or clips are used, replace only with the correct part number to ensure a proper fit

Symptoms of a bad radiant element spring include:

• Radiant element coil sagging or not sitting flush
• Element coil not heating properly or heating unevenly
• Excessive heat and energy use from a misaligned coil
• Element mounting brackets becoming loose over time
