General Electric Range JCSS16P1 Element will not heat

The 8 Inch Large Surface Element is an OEM part for GE ranges and cooktops. This heating element is used on the cooktop to provide a consistent heat source for cooking. It fits into the designated spot on the stove and connects to the electrical system, allowing users to control the temperature for various cooking needs.

Causes of a bad surface element can include wear and tear from frequent use, electrical malfunctions, or damage from spills and food debris. Overheating or accidental impacts can also impair its functionality.

Symptoms of a bad 8 Inch Large Surface Element include:

• The element not heating up
• Uneven heating or hot spots on the element
• Sparks or electrical noises when the element is in use
• Visible damage or burns on the element

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

The 6-Inch Small Surface Element is an OEM part for GE cooktops and ranges. It is designed to provide consistent and reliable heat for cooking on the stovetop. This heating element fits into the designated slot on the cooktop and is used for preparing smaller dishes or for simmering.

You should replace the surface element if it becomes faulty. Causes of a bad surface element can include wear and tear from regular use, electrical issues, or damage from overheating. A malfunctioning surface element can lead to uneven cooking, insufficient heat, or the element not heating up at all.

Symptoms of a bad 6-inch small surface element include:

• The element not heating up or only heating intermittently
• Visible damage such as burn marks or deformation
• Uneven heating or hotspots on cookware
• The element not fitting securely into its slot

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

The Range Terminal Block Kit is an OEM replacement part for GE electric ranges. It contains screw terminals that connect internal wiring throughout the range. The terminal block facilitates safe and reliable power transfer between critical components such as the control panel, heating elements, timers, and temperature sensors.

Causes of a faulty terminal block can include normal wear over time loosening wire connections, water exposure leading to corrosion, or physical damage from force or impact.

Symptoms of a bad terminal block include:

• Intermittent or complete failure of bake, broil, or surface heating elements
• Fault codes or error messages related to electrical malfunctions
• Loose, frayed, or broken wire connections inside the range
• Components like the control panel or timers not operating correctly

This OEM GE part also fits Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore electric ranges.

The Oven Bake Element is an OEM part for GE ovens. This element is located at the bottom of the oven and is primarily responsible for providing the heat necessary for baking. When the oven is turned on, electricity flows through the element, causing it to heat up and glow red-hot. This bake element has ¼” push-on wire terminals. If you are unable to use your old wire connectors, order TJMA02875-1.

Symptoms of a failing oven bake element include:

• Oven not heating up properly or taking longer to heat
• Uneven cooking or baking
• Element not glowing or only partially glowing during operation
• Visible signs of blistering, cracks, or holes on the element

Causes of oven bake element failure typically include general wear and tear from regular use, exposure to high temperatures which can weaken the element over time, or electrical issues such as short circuits.

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

The Infinite Switch is an OEM replacement part for GE ranges. This switch controls the operation of the large heating elements on the cooktop. The element switch is responsible for regulating power delivery to the various heating elements based on temperature and function settings. It allows for precise heating control to maintain optimal cooking temperatures. Over time, element switches can wear down from repeated use and heat exposure.

Causes of a bad switch include burned-out or loose internal connections, damaged terminals, or defects in the electronic components.

Symptoms of a bad element switch include:

• Inability to turn elements on or off
• Elements not heating properly or unexpectedly shutting off
• Inconsistent or fluctuating oven or surface temperatures
• Electronic display or control issues

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

The Broil Element is an OEM part for GE ovens. It provides the necessary heat for broiling by producing high-intensity radiant heat from the top of the oven, allowing for cooking and browning foods.

Causes of a bad broil element can include repeated high-heat exposure, physical damage from cleaning or food spills, and electrical surges.

Symptoms of a bad broil element include:

• Inconsistent or no heat during the broiling cycle
• Visible signs of damage, such as blisters or breaks in the element
• Sparking or unusual noises when the broil function is engaged
• Uneven cooking or browning of food

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