The Radiant Element Spring is an OEM part for GE electric ranges. This spring supports the radiant element coil and provides the necessary tension to allow the coil to glow red-hot during the cooking process.
Causes of a bad spring can include fatigue from repeated heating and cooling cycles, damage due to impact or mishandling, or corrosion over extended use.
Symptoms of a bad radiant element spring include:
- Radiant element coil sagging or not sitting flush
- Element coil not heating properly or heating unevenly
- Excessive heat and energy use from a misaligned coil
- Element mounting brackets becoming loose over time
This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
