Part #318258203
This genuine Frigidaire bridge element delivers consistent, even heat for your range, stove, or cooktop. Positioned beneath the glass surface, it uses electric resistance to generate radiant heat for precise cooking performance. The bridge feature allows it to connect with other elements, creating a larger heating zone ideal for oversized cookware like griddle pans. Offering dual wattage settings of 1800W and 2600W, this component ensures flexibility for different cooking needs. Replacing a worn or faulty element can resolve issues such as uneven heating or burners that fail to heat. Installation is straightforward—disconnect power, remove the old element, and secure the new one before reconnecting.

Old element connections different from new element
11 of 14 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Frederic from KILLEEN, TX
  • A Bit Difficult
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Pliers, Screw drivers, Socket set
Disconnected power at breaker. Removed cooktop mounting screws, lifted top and propped in up position. Removed two screws and lowered two front burners mounting frame. Wiggled dual element free at the clips and proceeded to swap wires one at a time and realized the difference with connectors 1a and 2b much later when only the center porti on was heating up. Finally figured out the problem and everything works as advertised. Pay attention if you own a Kenmore product.
