Is it easy to replace the lower element on a jtp 15 GE oven? While the wife was baking last week, the lowere element burned out. Was wondering if I could replace it myself

The parts diagram for the JBS07V6 is available here: https://www.appliancepartspros.com/parts-for-ge-jbs07v6.html . The last two characters indicate the color of the range. The bake element (lower) is part 650 on the body cavity parts diagram. This gives the current part number as AP2031061 or WB44X10009 . See https://www.appliancepartspros.com/ge-bake-element-wb44x10009-ap2031061.html . This is a replacement part number and the previous part numbers are listed on the left hand side of the page (second link).

I hope this helps.

It’s probably the bake relay in the control board that’s bad.

Most double wall ovens are technically two separate oven boxes. The lower oven box has its bake, boil elements, high limit thermostat and ofcourse its own oven sensor. If the lower oven box boil is working good and less heat on bake feature may suggest that the bake element is burned out and only getting preheated with boil element. Just a suggestion here

Sounds like the bottom element, or element wire in the top oven is burned out, Check to see if the element is broken, or swollen. Two signs of a burned element.

Usually, when an oven won't heat, it's because the bake element is burned out. The bake element is the black, pencil- thick tube at the bottom of the oven. When the oven heats, the element glows red. This element has an expected life-span of several years. It may last for only one; it may last for many more. When the element burns out, you need to replace it.

When the food you're baking is done on top but not on the bottom--or when baking just takes far too long to finish--the bake element may be burned out.

You may get fooled into thinking it's working, because the oven is hot inside. But many electric ovens use the broil element, too, during the preheat and bake cycles. So the food may be getting heated only by the broil element, which causes poor baking results.

If the bake element is burned out, replacing it should solve the problem. Otherwise, you need to further troubleshoot the oven's electrical system to locate the defective wire or component.

DO you have a model number for that. I'm almost sure it's a thermal fuse in the back of the oven. Usually they go out during or after cleaning but that would shut down both elements. If you have the model (usually by the inside door look all over and up in the cavity) Then if you go to this link

It will show you a breakdown of the oven and where it is. If you give me the model I'll show you what I'm talking about. Good luck.

P.S. if it the fuse it's a cheap fix, little hard to get in back of the oven but cheap!

I honestly believe you are right. you should be able to wiggle it back and forth and pull it out.
