The Oven Temperature Sensor Assembly is an OEM replacement part for GE electric wall ovens. It is responsible for accurately reading the oven's internal temperature to provide precise temperature control and safe operation. Consistent and precise temperature readings are necessary for repeatable cooking results.  

Symptoms of a bad temperature sensor include:

• Inability to reach or maintain set cooking temperatures
• Fluctuating temperatures causing inconsistent results  
• Error codes or fault messages related to temperature regulation
• Potential safety concerns if temperatures run too high or low

Causes of a faulty sensor can be due to failures over extended usage, exposure to high heat cycles, or impedance changes due to dirt or mineral deposits. Precise temperature readings allow for confident cooking.

This OEM GE replacement sensor is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore electric wall oven models. 

The Oven Bake Element is an OEM replacement part for GE ovens. It is a crucial component that generates the heat necessary for baking and roasting functions within the oven cavity.

Dimensions:

• 18" side to side 19.50" from the mounting bracket to the back
• 2-3/4" between terminal centers
• 3" from the terminal to the back plate (calrod bent at a 45-degree angle)
• Male Spade 1/4" terminals

Symptoms of a bad oven bake element include:

• Uneven heating or hot/cold spots within the oven
• Oven taking longer than usual to reach the desired temperature
•  Element glowing irregularly or not at all during the baking cycle

Causes of a bad bake element can range from simply burning out due to repeated use over time to physical damage caused by drips, spills, or impact.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Infinite Switch (8") is an OEM replacement part for GE stovetops. It is responsible for controlling the heat output of the burner. The switch allows you to adjust the heat level by turning the knob, regulating the amount of power supplied to the burner. A bad infinite switch can be caused by regular wear and tear, electrical issues, or overheating. It can also become damaged if exposed to moisture.

Symptoms of a bad infinite switch include:

• The burner not heating up  
• The burner staying on at the highest heat setting  
• The burner not turning off or not responding 
• Visible signs of damage

Causes of a bad infinite switch can include normal wear and tear over time, exposure to excessive heat or moisture, or electrical malfunctions.

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

The Terminal Block Kit is an OEM replacement part for GE electric ranges. This kit replaces the points of connection delivering power to control circuits and surface coil elements atop the cooktop.  

Causes of failure are prolonged heat cycling which slowly breaks down solder joints and insulator coating on terminals conducting power. Liquids spilled can seep into connection areas over time promoting electrical faults.

Symptoms of a faulty terminal block include:

• Inability to ignite or regulate specific burners   
• Burners that glow intermittently or fail to respond
• Tripped circuit breakers upon use of problematic zones  
• Buzzing or cracking noises from under cooktop areas

This genuine GE kit is also compatible with Hotpoint and RCA electric ranges.

The Oven Broil Element is an OEM part for GE ovens. This element is located at the top of the oven cavity and is responsible for broiling, providing high heat for cooking tasks such as searing meats or browning the top of dishes. 

Causes of a bad Oven Broil Element can include prolonged use, leading to eventual wear and tear, exposure to food spills and grease that can corrode or damage the element, and electrical issues that may cause it to fail prematurely.  

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Oven Broil Element include:

• The element not glowing red when the broil function is activated
• Uneven cooking or browning of food
• The oven taking longer than usual to broil
• No heat production when the broil setting is selected

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Range Surface Burner Control Switch is an OEM part for GE ranges. This switch manages the temperature of the surface burners on your range, providing the ability to adjust the heat level. Whether you're simmering sauces or boiling water, the control switch ensures precise temperature management, enhancing your cooking experience.

The causes of a faulty burner control switch often include prolonged use leading to wear on the electrical contacts, exposure to moisture causing short circuits, or physical damage from impact or excessive force when turning the knob. 

Symptoms of a bad surface burner control switch:

• The burner not turning on or off 
• Inability to adjust the heat level, with the burner staying at one temperature regardless of the knob setting.
• Intermittent burner function 

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
