This 6-inch radiant surface element is the heating source for a small burner beneath a glass-ceramic cooktop. Replacing a failed element restores reliable, controllable heat to that cooking zone. What it does:

• Heats the 6-inch cooking zone under the glass top when the control is turned on
• Cycles to help maintain the selected temperature during cooking
• Common symptoms of failure: small burner won't heat, heats unevenly or intermittently, or shows visible burn spots/damage

• 1 six-inch radiant surface element

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the cooktop to cool completely
• Lift the glass top or remove the cooktop to access the elements; support the glass to avoid stress or cracks
• Note wire positions and transfer connections to the new element one at a time
• Ensure the element sits flat in its mounting brackets before reassembly and testing

The Broil Element is an OEM component for Whirlpool ranges. It is a vital heating component located at the top of the oven cavity that provides intense radiant heat for broiling functions. 

Symptoms of a bad Broil Element include:

• Inability to engage broil mode  
• Poor or negligible heating from the broiler
• Tripped circuit breakers when trying to broil
• Visible cracks, breaks, or damage to the broil element

Causes of failure can include deterioration over many heating and cooling cycles. Metal fatigue from constant expansion and contraction eventually causes cracking or breakage. 

This replacement broil element also fits Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, and some Kenmore models.

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.

Over time, terminal blocks can deteriorate due to factors such as heat exposure, electrical surges, or wear and tear. When the terminal block becomes damaged or corroded, it can lead to poor electrical connections or potential safety hazards.

Symptoms of a bad terminal block include:

• Burnt or scorched connections
• Intermittent power loss to the range
• Difficulty in the range heating up properly
• Visible damage or corrosion on the terminal block

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Oven Temperature Sensor Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This sensor is essential for monitoring the oven's internal temperature, ensuring that it reaches and maintains the correct temperature for baking and cooking. The sensor is approximately 7 inches long.

Over time, the oven temperature sensor can fail due to repeated heating and cooling cycles, exposure to spills or grease, or electrical issues. When the sensor malfunctions, it can result in inaccurate temperature readings, affecting cooking performance and food quality.
