This element harness connects a range or oven heating element to the appliance's terminal block, providing a reliable electrical path for proper heating. Replaces worn or damaged connectors to restore safe heater connections. What it does:
- Transfers power from the terminal block to the bake or broil element through insulated leads
- Provides terminal-end connectors that secure the element to the wiring harness
- Failsafe symptom: broken, corroded, or melted connectors that cause the element not to heat
- Other symptom: intermittent heating, arcing, burning smell, or visible insulation damage
What's included: One element harness assembly (single harness with terminal connectors) Install notes:
- Always disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
- Access typically requires removing the rear panel or element access panel; handle terminals carefully
- Inspect terminal block and element studs for damage; replace harness if connectors are loose, corroded, or insulation is brittle
