• Common failure symptoms: no heat in Bake, won't reach set temperature, or visible breaks/blistering on the element
• Restores even baking and consistent preheat performance when replaced
• Often tests open (no continuity) when the original element is burned out

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Remove oven racks, then the element's mounting screws; gently pull the element forward to access wires
