Used Oven Broil Element – WB4426638

Condition: Used (tested or pulled from working appliance)

Part Type: Oven Broil Heating Element

This used broil element WB4426638 is a genuine oven replacement part designed to deliver direct top-down heat inside your electric oven. The broil element sits at the upper interior of the oven cavity and is what generates the high, intense heat needed for broiling meats, crisping the surface of casseroles, and finishing dishes with a browned crust. 

Key Features

• 💡 Function: Radiant heating element responsible for broil cycles — sears and browns food from above.  
• 🔌 Connects via push-on terminals (standard oven wiring).  
• 🛠️ Used part: May show signs of prior installation but still functional — ideal for repair jobs, parts spares, or refurbishing ovens.
• 📍 OEM part number: WB4426638 (exact match for compatible Whirlpool/Maytag ovens — confirm model fit).  

Why Replace a Broil Element?

• Oven broil won’t heat or stays cool.
• Uneven browning or under-cooked tops.
• Visible damage (cracks, blistering) on the heating coil.  

💡 Note: Always disconnect power at the breaker before installing or testing heating elements.
