Customer Questions and Answers for Bake Element (Lower Oven) by Frigidaire

This lower bake element provides radiant heat from the bottom of the oven during Bake cycles. Replace a failed coil to restore proper preheating and even, consistent baking performance.

• Supplies bottom heat for Bake modes and maintains set temperature
• Replaces a burned-out or shorted lower element to restore oven operation
• Common symptoms: no heat in Bake, very slow preheat, uneven or undercooked results, visible blisters/cracks on the coil, or tripped breaker

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; heating elements are high voltage.
• Remove oven racks; take out the element's mounting screws inside the cavity and gently pull the element forward to access wires.
• Move one wire at a time to the new element; ensure terminals are fully seated and not touching metal.
• Reinstall the element and racks, restore power, and test Bake.
