Range/Stove/Oven Broil Element

Whirlpool manufactures a variety of products under several brands, including Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. They also produce items for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. The Broil Element is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part designed for Whirlpool ovens. It is situated at the top of the oven and generates the high heat needed for broiling food.

A faulty Broil Element can have several causes. Visible damage such as blistering, bulging, or breaks in the element are clear indicators. Another sign of a problem is the absence of heat when the broil function is activated, suggesting a burned-out element. Frequent tripping of the circuit breaker may also indicate an electrical issue with the element.

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Broil Element include:

- Food not broiling or browning properly
- The oven not reaching the set temperature or heating more slowly than usual
- Unusual electrical odors or sparks coming from the element area during use

This OEM part is compatible with various brands including Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and some Kenmore models.

This part addresses the following issues:
- Little to no heat when broiling
- Element will not heat
