The Overlay is an OEM part for GE gas ranges. This overlay is a part that adheres to the front of the electronic control panel, providing a clear, labeled interface for the user. It details the button functions, temperature settings, and various other controls.
Causes of damage to the overlay often involve regular cleaning with abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that can wear away the print and adhesives, exposure to heat and steam, or accidental scratches and impacts during kitchen activities.
Symptoms of a bad Overlay on a gas range include:
- The labels on the overlay fading or peeling away
- Damage such as cracks, bubbling, or tears in the overlay, which can allow moisture or grease to get behind it, possibly damaging the electronic control panel.
- General wear and tear that diminishes the aesthetic appeal of your gas range
This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
