General Electric Cooktop Guard, Shield, Barrier Parts

This shield wire is a shielded electrical cable used to protect and route control or sensor wiring inside the appliance, helping prevent electrical interference and physical wear for reliable operation. What it does:

• Shields control and sensor wiring from electrical interference that can cause erratic signals or false readings
• Protects wires from abrasion and heat where harnesses pass near hot components
• Helps restore reliable connections when original wire is frayed, cut, or damaged
• Helps resolve intermittent control, sensor errors, or functionality loss tied to damaged wiring

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing internal wiring to avoid shock or injury.
• Inspect harness routing and secure shield wire away from heating elements and moving parts; replace any damaged clips or supports.
• Match wire routing and terminal connections exactly to the original; do not splice unless you use proper heat-shrink or soldered, insulated connections.
• If you see multiple damaged wires, consider replacing the entire harness rather than a single run.
