Frigidaire Range PGLEF388CS4 Element will not heat

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.

This dual infinite switch controls the inner and outer portions of a dual surface element on your range, providing smooth, adjustable heat levels. Replacing a failed switch restores reliable heating and proper temperature regulation for both ring sizes.

• Regulates power to both the small and large sections of a dual burner
• Typical failure symptoms: only one ring heats, no heat, won't switch between sizes, or heat stuck on high/erratic
• Mounts behind the surface knob and governs burner temperature settings
• Restores consistent simmer-to-boil control across all settings

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the cooktop to cool completely
• Access the control panel, then photograph or label all wire positions before removal
• Move wires to the new switch one at a time, matching terminal markings
• Reuse the existing knob; reassemble and test both inner and outer element settings

This surface element control replaces the damaged or worn control that regulates heat to an electric cooktop burner. Restores reliable power and heat adjustment for a single surface element on compatible ranges. What it does

• Acts as the infinite switch that controls the burner's heat level based on the knob setting.
• Replaces a control that causes a burner to stay off, fail to heat, or not respond to knob changes.
• Helps eliminate intermittent heating, erratic temperature changes, or a burner that won't cycle properly.
• Works with the corresponding burner element and knob to provide stepped heat control.

• Disconnect power to the range at the breaker before starting any repairs.
• Basic hand tools required; remove the cooktop or rear console per your model's service instructions.
• Handle terminals and wiring carefully; match wire locations exactly during reassembly.

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 Element is an OEM part for Frigidaire ovens and ranges, designed to provide reliable and efficient heat for baking and broiling. This heating element converts electrical energy into heat, which is then distributed evenly throughout the oven cavity, ensuring that your food is cooked thoroughly and consistently. 

Causes of a bad Element can stem from normal wear and tear, excessive use at high temperatures, or a sudden electrical surge that can damage the internal components of the element. 

Symptoms of a bad Element include:

• Uneven or insufficient heating, leading to undercooked food
• The oven taking longer than usual to preheat
• Visible damage to the element, such as blistering, cracks, or breaks
• The element not glowing red when the oven is turned on, indicating it's not heating

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.
