GE 168947 Toaster Oven with Convection Cooking - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

most appliances that have heating elements are rated between 1000 to 2000 watts, which will give you a current rating of between 5 to 10 amps, check at the back of the oven for the ratings. use
the formula P=VI, P(power(w) and V(voltage) and I is the current(amperes). the cord will have a
current rating, go for around 15 amp rating

Here is a GE address where you can check or there is a link to contact the company.

If that doesn't help then here is an address with a list of websites that carry oven parts.

GE has the instruction manual online at: http://www.gehousewares.com/products/countop_oven_rotise_1066410585855.pdf

Make sure you look at the cook times. The manual suggests using a separate timer (I use my regular oven's timer if I'm not cooking anything with that at the time) I've been reading a lot of negative feedback about this product but I love mine and use it regularly.

Do you still need top elements or do you still have your GE 169104 oven?

Everything runs through the timer circuit. Basically, you will need to replace the timer. Order one from supplier and quote them the model.

the broler element probably burnt out. it would not pay to fix.

In my case I found a capacitor on the 9 volt motor control board blown open. It was rated for 250 v but no mfd rating. I called the 877-207-0923 option 4 number. The GE toaster is warrantyed for 2 years. I was able to exchange it for a newer model at the same price today. The new one checks out just dandy.

I was just looking for a manual, no problem with the unit. But I figured it out, I was confused about the rotisserie.

I have a brand new used one time. My older teenage son did not like it (couldn't bake with it really). Bought something else. [email protected]

I can scan it and email it to you.

YES this is normal it is how it regulates temp by cycleing the elements ......................Please if this answer helped , please rate this 3 or 4 stars . and keep me in the paid answer department . A 1 or 2 may knock me down into the unpaid ranks. Thanks Cactus Bob

remove the plastic side where the controls are . if you see a broken wire you might be able to repair it otherwise theres no parts made for it ,so no matter how simple the broken part is .....there is nothing that can be done about it ........ WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF "MADE IN CHINA"

its not a diode its a fuse a high temp fuse . there is a number on it with a "c" after it thats the temp it opens ..... you can jump it out with a small bare wire just to test your elements and thermostat . if the thermostat does not cycle this fuse will blow . do not leave it jumped out , this is just for testing . find one on line with the number . and high temp fuse ... good luck

The new roaster ovens have a cord that is hardwired into the base. This became necessary for safety reasons. However, if you are lucky enough to have a very old one, cords that fit can be purchased at local hardware stores. They are larger than coffee pot cords but are very similar in design. Those plug in to a receptacle recessed in the base. If the cord is hardwired into the base, you will need to provide the expert that helped you with the information he requested. Thanks again for using FixYa.com

I have three heating elements available.

steel wool

Definitely return it. It has a partial internal short which is appying full power to only part of the heating element causing th excessive heat. No properly working appliance should make the outlet hot.
