Thermador Range / Cooktop / Oven Heating Element

The Bake Element is an OEM part for Bosch 30" ovens. This part is responsible for heating the oven's interior, enabling consistent and thorough baking results. 

A malfunctioning bake element can stem from various causes, including burnt-out coils, physical damage such as breaks or warps, or electrical issues like faulty wiring or connections. 

Symptoms of a bad bake element include:

• The oven not heating up to the set temperature.
• Visible damage to the element itself, such as blistering, splits, or breaks.
• Lack of heat when the oven is turned on, indicating the element may not be functioning at all.

This genuine OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and select Kenmore models.

The Bake Element is an OEM replacement part for Bosch ovens. Located at the bottom of the oven, this element is responsible for producing the heat required for baking. It heats up when electricity flows through it, ensuring that the oven interior reaches and maintains the desired temperature for consistent cooking results.

Causes for a malfunctioning Bake Element can include a burnt-out element, electrical issues such as faulty wiring or connections, or physical damage like breaks or warping of the element.

Symptoms of a bad Bake Element include:

• The oven not heating up or taking too long to heat
• Uneven cooking or baking results
• Visible damage to the element, such as burns, cracks, or breaks
• The element not glowing red when turned on

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore models.

The Bake Element is an OEM part for Bosch ranges and ovens. It is responsible for generating heat through its calibrated heating coils to bake and roast foods evenly. Consistent heat production is essential for optimal cooking performance.

Causes of a bad bake element can include coil failure due to deterioration over time and heat exposure, cracks or damage to insulators, or interrupted electrical flow.

Symptoms of a failed bake element include:

• Incomplete or uneven baking
• Extended cook times even at higher temperatures
• Failure to reach or maintain desired bake temperature settings
• Cool spots or cold spots appearing inside oven cavity

This genuine OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and select Kenmore models.

This Bake Element is an OEM part for Bosch Ovens. It's responsible for providing heat in the oven cavity for baking and cooking purposes. With prolonged use, the bake element can wear out or malfunction.

Frequent use at high temperatures can cause the bake element to deteriorate over time. Physical damage or overheating may also contribute to its failure.

• Uneven cooking or baking
• Inconsistent oven temperatures
• Oven takes longer to preheat

This genuine OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and select Kenmore models.

The Bake Element is an OEM part for Bosch ranges and ovens. It generates heat through calibrated heating coils, which bathe the oven cavity in consistent warmth for thorough yet delicate cooking. 

Causes of failure can be things like normal wear over time compromising insulation or shorting coils. Periodic replacement preserves cooking capacity.

Symptoms of a bad bake element include:

• Temperature fluctuations during use
• Inability to maintain set baking temperatures
• Oven display errors or failure to heat altogether
• Discoloration, cracking or other visible signs of damage on coils

This genuine OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and select Kenmore models.

This Bake Element is an OEM part for Bosch ranges. It serves a role in generating heat for baking and cooking in the main oven cavity. Over time, continuous use and high temperatures can cause the bake element to wear out or fail.

Repeated heating and cooling cycles can lead to the bake element's deterioration. Physical damage or exposure to excessive heat can also cause it to malfunction.

Symptoms of a Bad Bake Element:

• Inconsistent oven heating
• Uneven cooking or baking
• Oven not reaching set temperatures

This genuine OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and select Kenmore models.

Replacement bake element for the oven that restores heating for even baking and proper temperature performance. Installs in the oven cavity to provide the heat required during bake cycles. What it does:

• Heats the oven cavity during bake cycles so food cooks evenly.
• Common symptom: oven fails to reach set temperature or food is undercooked.
• Visible symptom: element that is blistered, broken, or shows burn marks may need replacement.
• Electrical symptom: an open (no continuity) element will prevent the oven from heating.

• Always disconnect power to the appliance at the breaker before starting work.
• Allow the oven to cool completely and wear gloves to protect against sharp edges.
• Access typically requires removing oven racks and the inner panel; disconnect wiring at the element terminals and secure the new element in place.
• Restore power and test the oven on a bake cycle after installation.

Restore fast, even convection cooking with this rear convection heating element. It supplies a ring of heat around the fan at the back of the oven so temperatures rise and hold properly in convection bake and roast modes.

• Provides heat around the convection fan for uniform air circulation and even results
• Common symptoms: no heat or very slow preheat in convection modes
• Fan runs but temperature does not rise in convection
• Visible damage or a break in the element

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance; allow the oven to cool completely.
• Remove racks; access and remove the element's mounting screws from inside the oven (procedure varies by model).
• Pull the element forward carefully; label and transfer wires one at a time so they don't slip back into the cavity.
• Reuse existing hardware; ensure terminals are tight, reassemble, and test a convection cycle.

This bake element heats the small oven cavity from below during Bake, delivering the radiant heat needed for preheating and consistent baking when the original element fails.

• Provides primary bake heat at the bottom of the small oven cavity
• Works with the oven control to preheat and maintain set temperature
• Common failure symptoms: no or weak bake heat, uneven baking, visible blistering/cracks, or a breaker trip when Bake is selected

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Access is typically from inside the cavity; remove mounting screws, pull the element forward, and move wires one at a time
• Support wires so they don't retract into the insulation; avoid bending or stressing the new element
• Restore power and run a bake cycle to verify proper heating

Note: Size 8 inches

The Element is an OEM replacement part for Bosch electric ranges. It generates the heat needed for baking, broiling, and other cooking functions.

Causes of a bad element can include mineral buildup interfering with heat transfer, melted or burnt connectors from overheating, or damage from impact over time. 

Symptoms of a bad element include:  

• Inconsistent or incomplete heating of the appliance
• Long preheat times or inability to reach desired temperature  
• Burned food indicating insufficient or uneven heat
• Safety issues such as sparking or smell of burning

This genuine OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and select Kenmore models.

Main broil heating element for the oven, designed to restore top-heat for broiling and browning. Replaces a failed broil element so the oven can produce even, high-intensity heat during broil cycles. What it does:

• Generates the high, direct heat at the top of the oven used for broiling and browning.
• Restores proper broil performance when the element no longer heats or glows.
• Fixes symptoms such as no broil heat, uneven browning, visible burn marks, or a broken/warped element.
• Works as the primary upper heating element used in broil cycles (main oven).

• Disconnect power to the range/oven at the breaker before starting any work.
• Remove oven racks and access the element from inside the oven; element typically secures with mounting screws and terminal connectors.
• Handle terminals and sharp metal edges carefully; wear gloves and eye protection.

The Surface Element is an OEM part for Bosch cooktop and ranges. Measuring 6 inches across, it provides focused heat from below for smaller sized cookware.
