Whirlpool Range RS660BXBH2 Element will not heat

The 8-inch large Surface Element is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool induction ranges. It serves as an integral independent heating zone to boil, sauté or simmer large pots quickly.

Symptoms of a bad surface element include: 

• Inability to power on or heat evenly across the surface
• Slow inconsistent heating or hot/cold zones developing  
• Parts of the coil visibly cracked or disconnected
• Tripped circuit breakers upon heat-up that don't reset

Causes stem from normal thermal stress fatigue of coiled elements exceeding thousands of temperature cycles daily. Continuous high wattage energy may cause microscopic metal deterioration developing over a decade plus of use.

This genuine Whirlpool replacement part is compatible with Kenmore, Roper and Jenn-Air ranges.

For matching 6-inch element order WP660532.

The 6 Inch Small Surface Element is an OEM part for Whirlpool electric ranges and cooktops. This component is essential for providing consistent, controlled heat to cookware on the stovetop. 

Symptoms of a bad 6 Inch Small Surface Element include:

• Lack of heat production, with the element failing to warm up at all.
• Inconsistent heating, where the element may fluctuate in temperature or only partially heat.
• Visible damage such as blistering, bubbling, or cracks on the element's surface.
• A tripped circuit breaker when the element is turned on, indicating a short.

Causes of a bad surface element can include prolonged use leading to element burnout, electrical faults such as faulty wiring or internal failures, and physical damage from impact or heavy cookware being dropped on the element.

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

8-inch element is part number WP660533.

The Oven Bake Element is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This part heats the oven's interior during the baking process. Located at the bottom of the oven, the bake element heats up when electricity passes through it, allowing for consistent and even cooking.

Causes of damage to the Oven Bake Element can include normal wear and tear from regular use, a buildup of food debris causing hot spots and potential burns out, or electrical issues leading to shorts or surges that damage the element.

Symptoms of a bad Oven Bake Element include:

• Visible signs of damage to the element, such as blistering, holes, or breaks in the element itself.
• The oven failing to heat up at all
• A lack of visible glowing from the element during operation 

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

The Broil Element is an OEM component for Whirlpool wall ovens and ranges. Located at the top of the oven cavity, the broil element is responsible for providing intense heat from above for searing and browning foods. The element measures approximately 12" wide x 19" long.

Symptoms of a bad broil element include:

• The broil function not working or heating very little
• Oven takes a long time to preheat

Over many uses, the coil filaments within the broil element can weaken and break from prolonged exposure to high heat. Cracks and breaks in the coil will diminish the element's ability to efficiently produce quality broiling results.

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

The Stove Top Drip Pan is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ranges. It is the shallow metal pan located below the stove burner elements that collects grease and food particles. The drip pan helps direct spills and drips away from the burner area to the bottom drawer for easy cleanup. 

Symptoms of a bad drip pan include:

• Grease or food spilling below the burners outside of the pan
• Burner elements showing signs of corrosion or damage from drips
• The drip pan no longer fitting properly or securely in place

Causes can be warping or damage of the drip pan over time due to exposure to heat. Dents and structural changes compromise its ability to direct drips properly.

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

If you require a compatible 6-inch drip bowl, suggest considering our WPW10196406 model for a perfect fit. For a black option include the 6-inch W10290353RW and 8-inch WPW10290350 models.  

This fixed thermostat monitors and limits temperature to protect the appliance's system and components. It's a simple, non-adjustable sensor/limit switch used where a set cutoff temperature is required for safe operation. What it does:

• Opens or cuts power when the monitored temperature reaches its fixed limit to prevent overheating
• Helps stop continuous heating cycles caused by a failed control or sensor
• Commonly used as a safety cutoff in temperature-control circuits
• Can resolve symptoms like persistent overheating, failure to stop heating, or temperature-related shutdowns

• One fixed thermostat (single unit)

• Disconnect power before inspecting or replacing the thermostat to avoid shock or damage
• Handle gently; avoid bending terminals or stressing sensing elements
