Magic Chef Range 5651XUS Little to no heat when baking

This OEM Replacement Part is a bake element designed for Whirlpool electric ovens. It measures approximately 19 1/4 inches wide and 15 1/2 inches deep. The element extends about 3 inches past the bracket to the terminals. The element, positioned at the bottom of the oven cavity, supplies heat for baking. It features male spade connectors with push-on wire terminals. If your oven experiences uneven heating, lack of heat, or minimal heat during baking, replacing this part may be necessary.

Ensure the range is unplugged or the house circuit breaker for the range is shut off before installation. The element provides 2100 watts on 208 volts and 2800 watts on 240 volts. Removal involves unscrewing Phillips screws above the element brackets and detaching the wire harness without losing wires. Inspecting the wire terminals for any signs of arcing or burning during removal is recommended.

The Terminal Block is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. It serves as a crucial connection point for the range’s electrical wiring, ensuring a safe and reliable transfer of power to the appliance.

• Difficulty in the range heating up properly
• Visible damage or corrosion on the terminal block
