General Electric Range PCB800DP2BB Element will not heat

The Bake Element is an OEM part for GE ovens, designed to provide the heat necessary for baking. This element is located at the bottom of the oven cavity and heats up when electricity is applied, converting electrical energy into heat to cook food evenly. 

Over time, however, the bake element can wear out or become damaged.

Symptoms of a bad Bake Element include:

• Visible signs of wear or damage, such as blistering, cracks, or breaks in the element.
• A burnt out element that no longer glows red or heats up.
• Food not baking evenly or thoroughly.

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

The Element Haliant 12 Inch is an OEM part for GE ranges. This radiant heating element is designed to provide even and consistent heat for cooking on your stovetop. It ensures efficient transfer of heat to your cookware, allowing for precise temperature control.

Over time, heating elements can wear out or become damaged due to repeated use, exposure to high temperatures, or accidental impact. If the element becomes faulty, it can result in uneven heating or failure to heat up entirely.

Symptoms of a bad element include:

• Element not heating up
• Inconsistent or uneven heating
• Visible damage or burn marks on the element
• Sparking or unusual noises during operation

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

The Element Radiant 9 Dual is an OEM part for GE cooktops and ranges. It provides the heating surface for cooking and is designed to offer two different heating zones, allowing for versatile temperature control depending on the size of the cookware.

Causes of a bad element radiant can include burnouts from excessive use, damage due to spills or impacts, and electrical issues. A faulty heating element can result in uneven cooking or the element failing to heat up at all.

Symptoms of a bad Element Radiant 9 Dual include:

• The element not heating or only partially heating
• Uneven heating across the surface
• Visible damage or discoloration on the element

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

The 6" Radiant Element In is an OEM replacement part for GE electric ranges. This element provides reliable and even heating across the cooktop surface to heat pans consistently. 

Causes of a failing element can include wear from extended everyday use, buildup of carbon residue on the coils inhibiting heat transfer, or physical damage such as cracks in coils.

Symptoms of a bad element include:

• Slow or incomplete heating of cookware placed above the element
• Temperature inconsistencies causing hot/cold spots on the cooktop  
• The element making a loud popping or cracking noise when in use

This OEM GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore electric ranges.

The Infinite Control Switch is an OEM part for GE ranges. This part controls the temperature of the surface burners by regulating the power sent to the heating elements, allowing for precise heat adjustments during cooking.

Causes of a bad infinite control switch can include electrical issues such as short circuits, wear and tear from regular use, or internal mechanical failures.

Symptoms of a bad infinite control switch include:

• The burner not heating up or getting stuck on one temperature
• Inconsistent or erratic heating
• Difficulty in adjusting the burner temperature
• The burner not turning off or on properly

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

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 Surface Burner Switch is an OEM part for GE electric ranges. This switch controls the heat level of the surface burner, allowing for precise temperature adjustments during cooking.

Common causes of failure include electrical issues, wear from frequent use, or damage from overheating. A malfunctioning switch can prevent the burner from operating correctly, affecting your ability to cook efficiently.

Symptoms of a bad Surface Burner Switch include:

• Burner not heating or only heating intermittently
• Inability to adjust the burner’s temperature
• Burner staying on high heat regardless of setting
• Burner not turning on at all

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