Maytag Range CDE8300ACB Element will not heat

This is a high-heat ceramic light receptacle used in select appliances. It provides a safe, insulated socket for the appliance light bulb so you can reliably see inside during use or service.

• Holds and insulates the bulb in high-temperature areas
• Restores lighting when the bulb is good but the light won't turn on
• Helps correct loose, flickering, or intermittent interior light
• Common signs include a cracked/scorched socket or arcing at the bulb base

• Disconnect power before servicing; allow the appliance to cool completely
• Access may be from inside the cavity or from the rear panel, depending on model
• Transfer wires one at a time to the new receptacle to maintain correct connections
• Install only the bulb type and wattage specified by the appliance manufacturer

This contact spade is a push-on electrical terminal used to connect an appliance wire lead to a component's blade. Replacing a worn or heat-damaged connector restores a secure fit and consistent power flow.

• Creates a reliable electrical connection between a wire lead and a flat spade terminal on a component
• Helps prevent arcing, heat build-up, and intermittent power caused by loose or burned terminals
• Common symptoms include: component won't power or heat, intermittent operation, visible discoloration or melting at the connector
• Direct replacement for a damaged or fatigued push-on terminal

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Match the size/orientation to the original terminal and replace any discolored or heat-damaged wiring/insulation
• Use an appropriate crimp tool to attach the terminal to the wire lead; ensure a firm crimp
• Push fully onto the mating blade for a tight, secure connection

This terminal block provides an insulated, secure junction for incoming power or harness leads inside the appliance. Replacing a cracked, loose, or heat-damaged block restores a safe, reliable connection and helps prevent arcing or intermittent power.

• Creates a fixed, insulated junction between external supply wires and internal appliance wiring
• Maintains tight screw-lug connections to minimize resistance and heat buildup
• Helps ensure steady power delivery to controls, motors, and heaters
• Common indicators of failure: melted/discolored block, burning odor, visible arcing, loose or stripped terminals, intermittent or no power

• Disconnect power at the breaker and verify zero voltage before servicing
• Photograph/label wire positions; transfer one lead at a time to the new block
• Tighten terminal screws firmly; do not overtighten into the insulator
• Inspect wire ends/ring terminals and strain relief; replace any heat-damaged components per the service information

This is the electric broil element for your oven. It delivers high, direct heat from the top of the cavity to sear and brown foods, restoring proper broiling performance when the original element has failed.

• Provides radiant heat from the top of the oven during the Broil cycle
• Restores proper searing and browning performance
• Common failure symptoms: no heat on Broil, weak or uneven broiling, element won't glow red, visible blistering or breaks
• Direct replacement for a failed or damaged broil element

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance; allow the oven to cool completely
• Remove oven racks, take out element mounting screws, and gently pull the element forward to access the wires
• Transfer the wires one at a time; ensure terminals are fully seated and do not let wires slip back into the insulation
• Reinstall the element without bending it, tighten screws snugly, restore power, and test the Broil cycle
