    OEM or generic? I replaced mine a few months back and the sensors/thermal fuses with an off brand kit and it’s been nothing but a hassle since.

    Twice more I’ve had to take it apart and replace a blown thermal fuse I finally just put the old ones back in, crossing my fingers that does the trick.

      Yeah, the heating element in my oven went out. I didn’t want to trust some random Chinese Amazon one. I went ahead and bought the replacement directly from GE. It was like $25 more, but imo, very worth it. With the amount of wattage going through that, and potential for fires and failure, it was $25 well spent.
