If you have an electric oven, it likely has two heating elements inside: the broiling element (at the top) and the baking element (at the bottom). These elements usually glow red when they're working properly. If one or both elements fail to change color—and your oven fails to heat up—the elements may be to blame. Fortunately, heating elements are fairly easy to replace. We recommend using only genuine GE Appliances parts. Click here to find your specific part number. If the problem persists after you install a new heating element, you may need a professional to look into a bigger electrical issue.
*GE Appliances technicians carry an extensive parts inventory on their service trucks. In the event a part is not available on the service truck, a follow-up service call may be required.
