Frigidaire Range GLED388DBB Element will not heat

The Switch is an OEM part for Frigidaire ovens. This component is responsible for controlling the flow of electricity to various functions of the oven, such as the bake and broil elements, ensuring the oven operates correctly according to the selected settings.

Causes of a bad switch can include wear and tear from frequent use, electrical surges, or physical damage from impact or exposure to moisture.

Symptoms of a bad switch include:

• The oven not turning on or responding to control inputs
• Inconsistent heating or temperature control issues
• Certain oven functions not working, such as the bake or broil elements
• The switch feeling loose or sticking when turned

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Tappan, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

The Surface Burner Infinite Switch is an OEM part for Frigidaire ranges. This switch is responsible for controlling the heat output of the surface burners on your range. By adjusting the infinite switch, you can set the burner to different heat levels, allowing for precise cooking control.

Common causes of a bad infinite switch include electrical failures, internal component wear, or physical damage to the switch mechanism.

Symptoms of a bad surface burner infinite switch include:

• Burner not heating up
• Burner only working at one heat level
• Burner not turning off
• Inconsistent or fluctuating heat levels

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

The Heating Element is an OEM part for Frigidaire ovens and ranges. It is responsible for providing the heat necessary for baking or broiling. The element converts electrical energy into heat through resistance; this heat is then distributed throughout the oven cavity to cook or bake food evenly. 

Common causes of a bad Heating Element can include visible signs of damage like blistering, bulging, or breakage. A burnout may occur when the element overheats and fails, leading to no heat production. Additionally, electrical issues like a blown fuse or faulty wiring can prevent the element from receiving power.

Symptoms of a bad Heating Element include:

• The oven does not heat up
• Uneven cooking or baking
• Longer cooking times than usual
• The element not glowing when the oven is turned on

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

Size: 8 inch. 2200 watt. Radiant.

The Broil Element is an OEM part for Frigidaire ovens and ranges. It is specifically designed to provide the high heat necessary for broiling food, such as meats and vegetables. Located at the top of the oven interior, the broil element radiates heat downwards, creating a high-temperature environment ideal for browning and caramelizing the exterior of dishes while locking in juices. 

Over time, the broil element can burn out or become damaged due to high temperatures and frequent use. 

Symptoms of a bad Broil Element include:

• Lack of heat when broiling
• Uneven cooking or browning of food
• Visible damage or breaks in the element
• No visible glow from the element during operation

This genuine Frigidaire OEM replacement part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore gas ranges.

This replacement surface element restores proper heating on a 6-inch burner, so you can cook evenly and bring pans up to temperature as expected.

• Heats cookware on a 6-inch cooktop position
• Common failure signs: burner won't heat, heats intermittently, or trips off under load
• Restores consistent, controllable surface heat
• Direct fit for the designated element location

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Allow the cooktop to cool fully before handling
• Lift/remove the old element carefully to avoid damaging terminals or receptacle
• Inspect and replace the element receptacle as needed

6 inch, 1200 watt single radiant surface element.

The Oven Temperature Probe is an OEM part for Frigidaire ovens. This part monitors the oven's internal temperature, ensuring that it accurately reflects the set temperature on the oven's control. By measuring the heat inside the oven, the temperature probe helps in maintaining consistent cooking results, preventing undercooking or overcooking of food.  

Over time, the oven temperature probe can fail or become inaccurate due to wear and tear, exposure to extreme temperatures, or damage from cleaning and handling. This can lead to uneven cooking results, with food being overcooked or undercooked, despite setting the oven to the correct temperature.

Symptoms of a bad Oven Temperature Probe include:

• Oven not reaching the set temperature
• Oven temperature fluctuating more than usual
• Food not cooking evenly or within expected time frames
• Error codes displayed on the oven indicating a temperature sensor issue

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

The Terminal Block Kit is an OEM part for Frigidaire appliances, typically used for connecting house power to various electrical appliances like ranges and dryers. This kit includes includes screws, nuts, and a unique terminal block. It plays a critical role in the power supply system by providing a reliable connection point for the appliance's main power cord, preventing loose connections and potential electrical hazards.

Symptoms of a bad Terminal Block Kit include:

• Signs of burning or melting at the connection points,
• Flickering power or intermittent operation of the appliance,
• A burning smell from the appliance area.

Causes of terminal block failure often involve loose connections that can lead to arcing and overheating, improper installation, or general wear and tear that degrades the integrity of the electrical contacts.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

The dual element infinite switch is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire ranges. It controls the dual element for the cooking surface.

Causes of failure can involve moisture intrusion due to cleaning or failed electronic components over many years of use.

Symptoms of a bad switch can be:

• Temperature fluctuations outside of the set range
• Runaway temperatures of the surface element
• Circuit breaker tripping when trying to use the surface element
• No power to the element when you have power coming to the switch

This replacement part is also compatible with ranges from Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore brands.
