326793 Whirlpool Oven Bake Element, Manufactured By

The Oven Bake Element, manufactured by Whirlpool, is a genuine replacement part designed to fit various Whirlpool-manufactured ranges and wall ovens, including brands such as Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, it is suitable for certain Sears-Kenmore and Ikea models. This element, positioned at the upper part of the oven, is crucial for producing the infrared heat needed for baking and warming. It is constructed from durable ceramic and metal, enabling it to withstand high temperatures.

Specifications for the Whirlpool Oven Bake Element are as follows: 2500 Watt, 240 Volt, with dimensions of 21-3/4 inches in width and 15-3/8 inches in length. The distance from the mount bracket to the terminals is 3 inches, and the gap between terminals measures 19-1/8 inches.

Common indicators of a malfunctioning bake element include uneven heating or insufficient heat on the oven's top surface during use, bake cycles that terminate prematurely due to loss of heat, frequent error messages about thermal cut-outs, and visible damage such as cracks or breaks in the element coil or insulator ring.

This part is also compatible with certain models from Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, and some Kenmore wall ovens that share the same element design.

Replacing a faulty bake element can resolve issues like inadequate heating during the baking process.
