After adjusting the oven controls to Bake. The oven PreE displayed indefinitely. The oven bake element was broken and the oven did not pre-heat to the desired temperature.
First I unplugged the oven 220 Volt plug which provided power to the appliance.
I opened the oven and as you can see the oven bake element is broken.
I ordered a compatible oven bake element for the GE stove.
I disconnected the broken oven bake element so it could be removed.
I opened the back panel and pulled the connectors to the oven bake element so I could prepare to connect the new oven bake element.
I pulled the connectors through so they showed on the inside of the oven.
The connectors attach to the new oven bake element.
I attached the connectors. And turned on the oven. The element heated up.
The PreE heated to 450 degrees showing that the oven is ready to be used.
