The Oven Heating Element is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ovens. It is a crucial component responsible for generating the heat necessary for baking, roasting, and broiling in the oven cavity.

Causes of a bad oven heating element can include mechanical failure, electrical malfunctions, or simply reaching the end of its lifespan due to repeated heating and cooling cycles.

Symptoms of a bad oven heating element:

• Oven not heating up properly or failing to reach the set temperature
• Uneven heating or hot spots within the oven cavity
• Visible damage or breaks in the heating element coil
• Unusual smells or burning odors emanating from the oven

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

The Broil Element is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ranges. It works to radiate intense heat from the top of the oven cavity, allowing for quick and effective broiling of foods placed directly underneath. The broil element relies on protective coatings to withstand high temperatures and insulated filaments to safely conduct electric current without damage.

Symptoms of a bad broil element include:

• Slow or ineffective broiling
• Uneven or lackluster browning of broiled foods
• The oven cavity not reaching high enough temperatures for broiling
• Ovens not functioning properly on the broil setting

Causes of a bad broil element can be deterioration of protective coatings over long-term use, damage to filaments from wear and tear, or burns/breaks from contact with other oven surfaces.

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