• Prevents overheating that can cause damage or burn odors
• Commonly replaces a failed or intermittently tripping thermal safety switch
• Works as part of the appliance's temperature-safety system, not a primary temperature control

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting replacement
• Observe proper wiring orientation and secure terminal connections
• Replace only with the exact part specified for your appliance

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
