Amana Microwave 896.A Element will not heat

This lower oven bake element restores the primary heat source for Bake cycles in electric ovens. A failed element can cause no heat or uneven results; replacing it brings back consistent preheating and baking performance.

• Heats the oven cavity from the bottom during Bake mode
• Replaces a broken, shorted, or visibly damaged element
• Common symptoms: no heat in Bake, slow preheat, or uneven baking
• Helps the oven maintain set temperature once preheated

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Remove mounting screws; gently pull the element forward to access and disconnect the two spade terminals
• Transfer wires to the new element, secure with existing hardware, and ensure wiring/insulation isn't pinched
• Restore power and test a Bake cycle
