General Electric Wall Oven Damper & Related

This vent tube assembly directs exhaust and heat away from the appliance cavity to help maintain proper airflow and protect internal components. It replaces a worn or damaged vent tube to restore normal venting performance. What it does

• Channels exhaust from the appliance outlet to the main vent path to prevent heat buildup.
• Keeps heat and combustion gases away from console and internal wiring.
• Helps reduce hot spots and odors that can occur with a damaged or disconnected vent.
• Fits into the appliance's venting system to restore intended airflow routing.

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before starting work.
• Remove access panels per the appliance service instructions; take care around sharp sheet metal.
• Verify orientation and secure mounting so the tube routes without kinks or pinching.

This vent tube assembly routes exhaust and airflow inside the oven/range so the appliance can vent heat and combustion gases away from critical components. Restores proper internal venting and can reduce overheating or unusual odors. What it does:

• Channels exhaust from the oven cavity to the exhaust/vent path
• Helps protect wiring and components from excess heat
• Supports consistent oven temperature by allowing proper airflow
• Can address symptoms like hot spots, burning smells, or tripped safety limits when the original vent is damaged

• One tube vent assembly as shown

• Recommended for appliance technicians or experienced DIYers; disconnect power before starting
• Verify correct orientation and secure all fasteners and gaskets to prevent leaks
• Inspect adjacent parts and replace if damaged
• Follow OEM service manual steps for access and torque specs where applicable

This vent tube assembly routes exhaust air and helps direct airflow away from the appliance to maintain proper ventilation and operation. It replaces a damaged, cracked, or disconnected tube to restore correct air discharge. What it does:

• Channels exhaust airflow from the appliance to the external vent path
• Prevents air leaks that can reduce venting efficiency or cause mild odors
• Replaces tubes that are cracked, split, corroded, or otherwise damaged
• Helps maintain consistent airflow for proper appliance performance

• One vent tube assembly as shown

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) and unplug the appliance before beginning work
• Use appropriate tools and fasteners; do not overtighten clamps to avoid crushing the tube
