Customer Questions and Answers for Broil Element (Upper Oven) by Frigidaire

This broil element mounts at the top of the oven cavity and provides high, radiant heat for broiling and top-browning. Replace it if the broiler won't heat, heats unevenly, or the element shows visible damage.

• Delivers intense, top-down radiant heat for broiling and finishing dishes
• Restores broil performance when the original element is open, shorted, or weak
• Common symptoms: no broil heat, only part of the element glows, uneven browning, visible blisters/cracks, tripping the breaker
• Direct replacement designed to fit and connect to existing terminals

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the range before servicing; high-voltage hazard
• Remove oven racks; take out element mounting screws and carefully pull the element forward to access terminals
• Transfer wires one at a time and support them to prevent retracting into the insulation; ensure tight, clean connections
• Reinstall screws, restore power, and test broil for an even, consistent glow
