Parts for Kitchenaid KEWD175HSS3: 02 - Section Parts

The Broil Element is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ranges. It works to radiate intense heat from the top of the oven cavity, allowing for quick and effective broiling of foods placed directly underneath. The broil element relies on protective coatings to withstand high temperatures and insulated filaments to safely conduct electric current without damage.

Symptoms of a bad broil element include:

• Slow or ineffective broiling
• Uneven or lackluster browning of broiled foods
• The oven cavity not reaching high enough temperatures for broiling
• Ovens not functioning properly on the broil setting

Causes of a bad broil element can be deterioration of protective coatings over long-term use, damage to filaments from wear and tear, or burns/breaks from contact with other oven surfaces.

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