The Overlay is an OEM replacement part for GE ranges and ovens, designed to provide a clear, durable interface for the appliance's control panel. The overlay is a protective and decorative film that labels each function and control on the electronic control board of your range or oven. It allows users to select settings and modes accurately.
Common causes of a bad overlay include frequent cleaning using harsh chemicals that degrade the material, exposure to high heat or direct sunlight resulting in fading or warping, and physical damage from impacts or scratches that may occur during cleaning or general use.
Symptoms of a bad overlay include:
- Difficulty in selecting the correct settings due to faded or missing labels.
- The appearance of the control panel looks worn or unattractive, affecting the overall look of your kitchen.
- Moisture infiltration into the control panel, potentially causing electrical issues.
This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
