Parts for Maytag JES9800BAS18: 05 - Internal Oven Parts

The Oven Bake Element is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. It is responsible for providing the heat required for baking by generating radiant heat at the bottom of the oven cavity. This element ensures that the oven reaches and maintains the desired baking temperature, contributing to consistent and even cooking results.

Causes of a bad bake element can include regular wear and tear, overheating, or physical damage such as cracks or breaks in the element itself. A malfunctioning bake element can lead to uneven cooking and longer preheat times.

Symptoms of a bad oven bake element include:

• Oven not heating or taking a long time to preheat
• Uneven baking results
• Visible damage or burning on the element
• The element not glowing red when in use

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The broil element is the oven's upper heating element that delivers direct radiant heat for broiling and finishing foods. Replacing a failed element restores consistent top-side browning and proper broil performance.

• Provides high, direct heat from the top of the oven during the Broil cycle
• Restores broil function when the original element is open or damaged
• Common symptoms: no heat on Broil, weak/uneven top browning, element won't glow, visible breaks or blistering
• Matches the original design for proper fit and heat output on applicable models

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the range; allow the oven to cool completely
• Remove oven racks to access the element
• Take out the element's mounting screws, gently pull the element forward, and transfer the wires one at a time to the new element
• Ensure terminals are fully seated and mounting screws are snug; restore power and test Broil

Color: chrome. Measures about 23 inches wide by 16 inches deep.

This receptacle provides the appliance's electrical connection point, restoring a secure power feed and preventing intermittent or no-power issues. Use it to replace a damaged or worn connector for reliable operation. What it does:

• Restores the appliance's main power connection where the cord or harness plugs in
• Replaces cracked, melted, or loose receptacles that cause intermittent power
• Stops arcing or poor contact that can lead to shutdowns or overheating smells
• Helps ensure a firm, vibration-resistant electrical connection

• Disconnect all power before starting work to avoid shock or injury
• Verify wiring colors and terminal positions match the original before reconnecting
• Securely fasten the receptacle and strain-relieve the cord/harness to prevent movement

The Oven Temperature Sensor Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This sensor is essential for monitoring the oven's internal temperature, ensuring that it reaches and maintains the correct temperature for baking and cooking. The sensor is approximately 7 inches long.

Over time, the oven temperature sensor can fail due to repeated heating and cooling cycles, exposure to spills or grease, or electrical issues. When the sensor malfunctions, it can result in inaccurate temperature readings, affecting cooking performance and food quality.

Symptoms of a bad oven temperature sensor include:

• The oven not reaching the set temperature
• Food cooking unevenly or not fully
• The oven overheating or underheating
• Error codes related to temperature issues

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

A shoulder screw that secures appliance components and provides a precise pivot or spacer point. Replaces a missing or worn screw to restore alignment, reduce rattling, and keep panels and assemblies securely in place. What it does:

• Provides a fixed-diameter shoulder for pivots, spacers, or mounting points in assemblies.
• Holds panels and moving components at the correct distance to prevent binding or friction.
• A missing or worn shoulder screw can cause misalignment, rattling, or loose parts during operation.
• Used where a smooth-bearing surface and controlled clearance are required between parts.

• Disconnect power to the appliance (unplug or shut off breaker) before servicing.
• Handle small fasteners carefully to avoid dropping into assemblies; magnetic pickup tools can help.
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly but avoid overtightening.
