WPW10207398 Whirlpool Oven/Range/Stove Bake Element

Oven/Range/Stove Bake Element

This component is essential if your oven doesn't heat properly or produces insufficient heat during baking. Whirlpool manufactures this part, which is compatible with brands like Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, Admiral, as well as some Sears-Kenmore and Ikea models. The Bake Element is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part, ensuring it meets the specifications needed for consistent and even heating.

Positioned at the bottom of the oven cavity, the element heats up when powered, distributing heat evenly for proper baking. Wear and tear from regular use is the most common reason for bake element failure. Over time, the element may burn out or sustain damage, impacting its heating efficiency.

Signs of a failing Bake Element include:

- The oven not reaching the desired temperature or heating up slowly.
- Uneven baking results, with some food areas undercooked or overcooked.
- No visible glow from the element when the oven is on, indicating it isn't heating.
- Physical damage to the element, such as blistering, cracks, or breaks.

This OEM part from Whirlpool is designed to be compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and certain Kenmore models.
