Description

The oven broil element delivers intense radiant heat from the top of the cavity to sear and brown foods. Replace a burned-out or shorted element to restore reliable broiling performance and even top heat.

• Produces high, radiant heat from above when Broil is selected
• Helps sear meats and brown casseroles quickly and evenly
• Common failure signs: no heat on Broil, weak/uneven browning, visible cracks/blistering or breaks

What's included: 1 broil element Install notes:

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the oven to cool completely
• From inside the oven, remove mounting screws, pull the element forward, and disconnect the two wire terminals; support wires so they don't slip back
• Transfer any mounting bracket/spacers from the old element if present; reconnect terminals firmly
• Inspect and replace any heat-damaged terminals; test Broil before final reassembly
