This surface heating element restores dependable heat to a burner on your range or cooktop. Also called a surface burner or top burner element, it delivers the cooking temperature for that zone when the control sends power. What it does:

• Generates heat for one cooking zone on the cooktop
• Common symptoms: burner won't heat, heats unevenly or only partway, takes too long to heat, or shows visible damage
• Helps isolate a single-burner failure when other surface elements still work
• Replaces a damaged or open element to restore consistent heating

• 1 surface element

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the cooktop to cool completely
• Access the element per your model (remove burner pan or lift the glass top)
• Note/photograph wiring and transfer any brackets or clips; move wires one at a time to matching terminals
• Ensure the element sits flat and all connections are secure before reassembly and testing

A replacement support bracket that secures the oven heating element in the cavity so the element stays properly positioned for safe, even heating and reliable operation. Restores stable mounting after breakage or wear. What it does:

• Holds the bake/oven heating element in place so it doesn't sag or contact the oven cavity
• Helps maintain consistent heating and prevents element movement or rattling during use
• Commonly used when the existing support is cracked, bent, or missing
• Works with the oven's internal mounting points to align the element correctly

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Handle the heating element carefully; support may attach directly to the element terminals or mounting studs
• Basic hand tools are typically required; refer to your model's service instructions for exact steps
