Viking PJ010012 Bake Element Oven Replacement Part

Product Description

The VIKING PJ010012 is a bake element designed as a direct OEM-style replacement for Viking electric ovens. The bake element sits at the bottom of the oven cavity and generates the radiant heat used during baking and roasting cycles. When a bake element fails, the oven will not reach or hold temperature, resulting in undercooked food and uneven heat distribution. This part measures 20.0 x 19.0 x 2.0 inches and weighs approximately 1 pound. It is installed by appliance service technicians and experienced trade professionals during routine oven repair calls.

This bake element is suited for residential electric wall ovens and range ovens manufactured under the Viking Appliances brand. It is a common service part for units that show visible damage to the existing element, fail to heat on the bake setting, or trip a breaker during operation. Compatible models include EVESO176, DEDO275, CDESO105, VESO177, CDEDO270, DESO170, CDEDO205, VEDO276, DEDO270, VEDO277C, CDEDO275, VESO176, DESO171, DESO175, VEDO277, and DEDO271.

Installation Notes

Bake element replacement is typically performed by a qualified appliance technician. Before beginning any work, disconnect power to the oven at the circuit breaker or unplug the unit entirely. The element is generally secured by mounting screws at the rear of the oven cavity and connects to the wiring harness via terminal connections. Do not attempt to power up the oven with the element partially seated or with exposed wiring contacts.
