I have a 1950's GE pink/beige wall mtd w/ matching cooktop...I can't find the model # label on the wall mtd oven ? where is it located ?

To find the correct replacement baking element for your GE Rapid Clean II J55BF-1 wall mount oven, you can try the following steps:

1. Locate the model and serial number of your oven. This information is usually found on a label on the inside of the oven door or on the back of the oven.
2. Visit the GE Appliances website or use an online appliance parts retailer to search for the part using your oven model number.
3. Look for the baking element part number in the oven's user manual or service manual. These manuals may be available online or from the manufacturer.
4. If you are still having trouble finding the correct part number, consider contacting the manufacturer's customer service department for assistance.

Once you have the correct part number, you can order the replacement baking element and follow the manufacturer's instructions for installation.

Sometimes you will have to pull the oven out to get access to the connector for the sensor. It could be jammed in the back or the hole is just too small to pull the connector through the wall.

It sounds like it is broken. You can bypass it by connecting the 2 wires together. This should be fine until you replace it. They aren't that expensive.

check on line type in your make / model no it should come up with part supplier's for your over choose one that offers the best deal

Your friend probably has the best suggestion. Sounds like the igniter is worn out or broken.

I had the same problem. Had GE out, they said it might be something but they'd have to take the cooktop off and it might be $300 or it might not. I unplugged it and now use matches.

from the serial # it was made in september the second letter N is either 1956 or 1972.
take a look at this site it'll lead you to ge heating elements
see if there is one that resembles your's.
then call them. they are very helpful and may be able to tell you where the model # is. ask if what you're seeing might fit.

This model has issues with the power input controller board, usually caused by surge following a power failure... board is $285 from GE plus $90 or so to install after paying a $100 service call. Replacment part is special ordered and generally takes a week or so.... have 2 of these ovens... ask me how I know.... LOL

Still can not locate a part number.
Unplug the range.
Take the element out and take it to an applince parts store. They will match it up with the correct element.
