Causes of a bad Broil Element can include failure due to internal coil damage, burnout from excessive use, or electrical issues such as short circuits or loose connections that prevent it from heating.

Symptoms of a bad Broil Element include:

• The oven not heating up to the set broil temperature.
• Uneven cooking or browning of food.
• No visible glow from the element during operation.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

• Cook times longer than normal for many recipes
• Error codes indicating issues with the lower heating element
• Open or shorted element coils preventing any heating
