Description
The Broil Element is an OEM part for GE ovens. It is designed to provide the high heat necessary for broiling food, such as meats and vegetables, allowing for a quick cooking process that seals in flavors and creates a deliciously crispy exterior.
Causes of a bad Broil Element can include failure due to internal coil damage, burnout from excessive use, or electrical issues such as short circuits or loose connections that prevent it from heating.
Symptoms of a bad Broil Element include:
- The oven not heating up to the set broil temperature.
- Uneven cooking or browning of food.
- No visible glow from the element during operation.
This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

- Little to no heat when broiling
- Oven not heating evenly
- Won't start

- Little to no heat when baking
