Signs it has failed

Check before you buy

What replacing it fixes: if the signs above match your oven and the checks point to this part, fitting a new one should clear those faults. If the symptoms continue, the cause is elsewhere (a control board, a sensor or a blocked vent or hose).

How to replace it

  1. Let the oven cool
  2. Slide the old shelf out
  3. Slide in the new shelf, with the stop at the back
  4. Check it sits level

Guide steps are typical for this type of part. Layouts differ between models, so follow your own manual where it differs.

Getting the right part

Shelves differ in size and shape. Match the part number, your model number and the measurements of the old shelf.

Check your model number first. It is on the rating plate — usually inside the door frame, on the back or side panel, or inside the appliance. Parts that look identical often differ by model, so match the number to the listing before you order.

Find it on Amazon

This opens an Amazon search for the part so you see what is in stock for your model today. Look for your model number in the listing title or the “compatible models” section, and prefer sellers who state it explicitly.
