This OEM-sourced broil element with push-on terminals is located on the roof of your oven cavity, providing heat from above to cook and heat your food. It requires a 240-volt power supply to function properly. The element measures 13 1/4 inches in width and has a length of 15 7/8 inches from the mounting bracket to the back. If you are experiencing issues like uneven broiling or lack of heat, it is likely that the broil element is faulty and needs replacement. Before starting the replacement process, ensure that you turn off the oven at the breaker panel and let it cool down. To carry out the repair, you will need a flathead screwdriver, nut driver, and pliers. Begin by removing the oven door and racks. Then, unscrew the mounting screws that hold the old element in place and disconnect its wiring. Carefully pull out the old element from the appliance. When installing the new element, slide the wire contacts onto the terminals, insert it into the designated slot, and secure it with its fasteners. The top of the element is held in place by fork-like support clips, which are sold separately from the element itself.

Why the new broil element I purchase from you has a wider diameter than the one my wall oven had?
For model number JRP14G0T1BB
Hello Hector, Thank you for the question. Checking the model number you ordered the correct top broil element for your appliance. At times the manufactures will make changes to the parts over time and they may appear different but should still fit and work on your appliance. Hope this helps!

Oven top Broiler was broke
I pulled the old broiler from holding clamps. I unscrewed the 2 screws holding the old broiler, pulled it out very slowly while using clips to hold the wires from going back into the wall behind the oven. That’s very important, I then pulled the old broiler off and replaced the new one. First I secured the elements on the oven clips that hold the element up, I reattach the new element, screwed the 2 screws back in. DONE My grandson helped, total time, maybe 15 minutes. Watch their video. Really easy, save money.

The top (broiler) element melted in two.
Be sure to flip the breaker to the oven to the OFF position before doing anything. Take out the two screws at the back of the oven that hold the element. Carefully pull the element forewarn to expose the connections to the wires. Disconnect the element from the wiring connectors. Be careful not to damage the connectors or the wiring. Plug the new element into the wiring connectors. Make sure you have the connections firmly in place. Push the wiring and connectors back into place. Replace the two screws. Make sure the element is resting in the spacers that keep it the correct distance from the top of the oven. Flip the breaker to the ON position, Turn the oven on Broil. The element should start turning a bright red. some fumes will come off the element. That is just oil from processing and handling. Your done!

element burned out
It's so simple most people could mannage the repair. Turn oven off. Remove oven door and shelves. Use a nut driver to remove mounting screws. Pliers to pull quick connect terminated wires off element terminals. Use pliers to push connectors onto new element,wires may connect to either terminal. Nut driver for screws to mechanically mount new element. Replace shelves and door. First time element gets hot it will burn off oils and dirt, not a problem but do it now not later.

Replace the heating coil in convection oven
[1] squirted LiquidWrench on the 4 screws holding the convection fanblade rear cover in place. Used a socket and rachet to remove screws; the loosener really helped after 10+ years.
[2] the broken heating element was easy to remove. The two spade connectors however didn't have much free length;these wires wanted to retreat back into the rear oven wall. [3] So i put a small binder clip from my desk supplies on each spade end, this left the connectors where I could grab them. [4]I used needle-nose pliers to firmly crimp the the spade connectors onto the new heating element; couldn't have made a firm placement with fingertip pressure alone. [5] I cleaned the oven door hinge area, oven bulb area, and other hard to reach spots with Simple Green and wipes.

I researched the part number from partselect.com, ordered it and in less than a week (even in all the snow!) I had my part. Fifteen minutes later, my wife was broiling dinner! I repaired my broiler element without waiting on a repairman and for less than $50.00!
First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires. Replaced the defective element with the new - all inless than fifteen minutes!

Easy
This part worked great and was very easy to change out. There were 2 screws to remove and the element slid out of the top clips. You have to gently pull the wires out until you can pull them off the ends of the element.
When I started the broiler after re-installing it smoked a little bit to start, so there must have been some residue from the factory. An oven clean cycle took care of that.

Easiest repair possible.
This product is identical to the original GE factory element. Actually, I think it IS made by GE. It took less than 15 minutes to install. All you need is a 1/4" socket or nut driver and a pair of pliers to disconnect the leads. Remember to turn off the power at the circuit breaker or unplug the oven. Fast shipping!
