WPW10276482 Whirlpool Oven/Range/Stove Bake Element

The Oven Bake Element, an OEM part designed for Whirlpool ovens, ensures even and consistent heating necessary for baking. Positioned at the bottom of the oven, this element plays a crucial role in most of the oven's cooking and baking functions.

Whirlpool manufactures this element, which is also compatible with several other brands they own or supply, including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, and Admiral. Additionally, it fits some models from Sears-Kenmore and Ikea.

Common problems with the Oven Bake Element might stem from electrical issues that stop it from heating, physical damage due to spills or impacts, or simply from regular wear and tear.

When the Oven Bake Element is not functioning properly, some signs include the oven not reaching the desired temperature, uneven cooking or baking, visible damage to the element, and a lack of heat despite the oven being on.

This part is essential for resolving issues like insufficient heat during baking.
