The Bake Element is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire ovens that provides the heat necessary for baking. Located at the bottom of the oven, the bake element heats up when electrical current flows through it, converting electricity into heat. This heat is then distributed throughout the oven cavity to cook or bake the food evenly.  Measures approximately 19 ¼ inches x 17 ¾ inches

Causes of a bad bake element can include visible damage such as blistering, cracking, or splitting of the element itself. Over time, exposure to high temperatures can lead to material fatigue and eventual failure. Electrical issues, such as a short circuit or a power surge, can also damage the element, preventing it from heating properly.

Symptoms of a bad Bake Element include:

• Oven not heating to the set temperature
• Uneven cooking or baking results
• Visible damage to the element

This OEM Frigidaire part can also be used on Electrolux, Frigidaire, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, and Sears/Kenmore.

The Small Surface Element Switch is an OEM replacement part for Frigidaire electric ranges. It serves as the control knob and circuitry to safely power one of the smaller cooking elements. 

Symptoms of a bad surface element switch include:

• Inability to ignite or regulate heating for its assigned zone
• Switch knob that feels loose, won't click smoothly, or won't stay set  
• Intermittent or unreliable power to the smaller element coils
• Tripped circuit breakers upon use that don't reset

Causes relate to thousands of rotations wearing micro-switches and wiring terminals within the control assembly. Regular cleaning around knobs can prevent accelerated deterioration from baked-on debris conducting excess heat.
