Description

The Oven Bake Element is an OEM part for GE ovens. This component is located at the bottom of the oven cavity and is responsible for generating the heat needed for baking. By converting electrical energy into heat, the bake element ensures even temperature distribution throughout the oven, allowing for consistent cooking results.

Symptoms of a failing Oven Bake Element include:

• The oven not heating to the set temperature
• Uneven baking results
• No visible glow from the element when the oven is turned on
• The oven taking longer than usual to preheat
