Frigidaire Range PLES389ECC 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

This surface element control board manages a dual radiant cooktop burner. It regulates power to the inner and outer coils so the element heats correctly, changes size as selected, and responds accurately to temperature settings.

• Controls power to a dual radiant surface element
• Directs inner/outer ring operation based on size selection
• Modulates heat output to match the set level
• Common failure symptoms: dual burner won't heat, only one ring heats, stuck on high, or erratic cycling

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing to avoid electrical shock
• Access is typically under the cooktop or rear top panel; refer to your model's service information
• Move wire connectors one at a time to the new board to maintain correct placement
• Handle the board by the edges and observe ESD precautions

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 Bake Element is an OEM part for Frigidaire ovens. It is responsible for providing the necessary heat for baking by converting electrical energy into heat within the oven cavity, ensuring even and consistent cooking results. It measures 19-1/2" wide, 15" long, and has 3-1/2" inserts, with a rating of 3400 watts and 240 volts. 

Causes of a bad bake element can include normal wear and tear over time, damage from high temperatures, or electrical malfunctions that cause the element to short out or break.

Symptoms of a bad bake element include:

• Uneven baking results
• The oven not reaching the desired temperature
• Visible damage or breakage on the element
• The element not glowing red when in use

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