Conesmasher Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Need some insight.....just tried to fire up my ELECTRIC oven and all of a sudden, bright white light and a much hotter than any other part section of the oven element. The element appears smaller in the section where the bright light came from. Now I'm not stupid, but I think the element is shot? Anyone with experience on this? Does my issue sound like a shot electric element in the oven? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco-REX Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 If only one spot on the element is doing this, then it's likely the element is cracked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sully Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 You should be able to get a replacement element from a parts store up at 71 & Weber. I don't remember the name of the place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 You should be able to get a replacement element from a parts store up at 71 & Weber. I don't remember the name of the place. Or the Sears Parts & Service store by the airport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sully Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Dayco Appliance Parts is the name of the store I was speaking of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conesmasher Posted February 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Thanks for the Dayco company, I have an appliance part center close by my house, so I think I'll try that in the AM, but if they don't have it.........I might try DAYCO. http://www.partwizard.net/product/20346/20045 Looks like this is the piece I need and it seems pretty straightfoward. My wife started baking some serious cakes recently and I guess it all adds up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
