The Oven Bake Element is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This part heats the oven's interior during the baking process. Located at the bottom of the oven, the bake element heats up when electricity passes through it, allowing for consistent and even cooking.

Causes of damage to the Oven Bake Element can include normal wear and tear from regular use, a buildup of food debris causing hot spots and potential burns out, or electrical issues leading to shorts or surges that damage the element.

Symptoms of a bad Oven Bake Element include:

  • Visible signs of damage to the element, such as blistering, holes, or breaks in the element itself.
  • The oven failing to heat up at all
  • A lack of visible glowing from the element during operation 

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

Tom, This issue would most likely be caused by a broil element issue. You would want to test the broil element for continuity to make sure that the element is good. If the element is good then you will want to check to make sure that there is 240 vac to the element when turned on. This may be a control board issue.
