Customer Questions and Answers for Element, 6" Plug - In 240V by Bosch

The Surface Element is an OEM part for Bosch cooktop and ranges. Measuring 6 inches across, it provides focused heat from below for smaller sized cookware.

Causes of a bad 6" plug-in element generally relate to normal wear and tear over time. Spills left on the coils could potentially cause issues by corroding internal wiring or damaging heating components.

Symptoms of a bad narrow surface element can include:

• The element heating intermittently or not at all
• Only parts of the coil visibly heating up
• Buzzing or clicking coming from below the element
• Tripped circuit breakers affecting that specific element

This genuine OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and select Kenmore models.
