GE oven lower bake element burned thru replaced element no power to oven

Posted by Ken on April 12, 2006, 3:26 pm

GE stove/oven model number JBP24GW1, lower bake element shorted out and
burned thru, small fire in oven. I replaced the lower bake element for $41,
no problem, nothing else seemed damaged except the old lower bake element.
But now I have no power to the clock/timer and the oven. The oven light
works, the surface burners work. I looked for a reset switch on the
stove/oven, could not find anything. Any ideas what to try next? Thanks in
advance for any and all help.

Hi,

Might have blown one of the house fuses or 1/2 tripped the breaker for
the oven. Power been tested?
Might have accidentally yanked off a wire somewhere during the repair.

They don't normally have one.
