Is the heating element submerged in oil during the heating/cooking process?
I just received a model 168997 model deep fryer and am concerned about sometinh. Is the heating element completely submerged in oil when the fryer is turned on and the oil is heating?

Most heating elements are indeed submerged in oil and for that reason I would not think it would affect your unit, however I do not normally work on home model products. I am a commercial restaurant equipment dealer, working on commercial products only. Trying it out would tell with within a few minutes whether it's going to work or not? Any other questions, I would find the 800 number or website for that company and ask them directly. Sorry I couldn't be more help to you, but I just don't know that much about home model stuff.

if a heating element is not immersed in a fluid ,it overheats and burns out
if it is designed to be in a fluid ( cooking oil or water as in hot water system) that is where it goes
If you are having doubts , you should not be doing the job so get in a professional to fit it
have a look round the back of it theres usualy a small reset button if that does not work or there isnt one , and its under guaratee take it back to were you bought it and have them sort it
Spray it really well with Oven Cleaner-let it sit outside, if you can for as long as possible-a day would be great. then wipe it down with a damp sponge.
On 11/17/07 I posted my problem with this fryer. I did not get a solution so today I called the customer service number 1-877-207-0923 and Virginia (customer service rep) suggested that I order a new cord ($5.95 plus shipping of $5.95). I should receive it in 7-10 days by UPS ground shipping. My model # is #168997 cord # PL1215. I hope this helps.
