Q2: I may actually have a spare 8-inch surface unit for a GE range like this, but I'll have to dig for it. Plus I live in Canada and shipping will be expensive. Q3: Unless you know the range has damage (rodent damage is the worst....) you will very likely not need to rewire anything Q4: It's a 1956 model. The 'N' in the model number is a date code for the year of manufacture - N was GE date-speak for '56. Q5: The fuse would only be for the outlet on the control panel.

I think it's possible to replace the 8" burner with one having a separate trim ring. GE selectively introduced their "tilt-lock" burners on their more expensive ranges initially - as if they were an uprade to the standard burners. I've had both kinds and replaced them and the mounting is the same; the tilt-lock simply had a hinge that allows the burner to stay in the upright position and the other type does not. Having the separate trim rings makes cleaning those buggers a whole lot easier! You might watch Ebay and check out repairclinic.com for parts.

I think this is the type of burner you're looking for. I can't guarantee parts numbers, but this would probably work. Note - the hinge is attached to the end of the calrod leads.

This is the type that is one the stove now. Very similar, but the trim ring is integral to the burner and there is no hinge.

Not this type either. This is a later part, designed to plug into a female connector and allowing an easy removal of the entire burner.

I'm not sure about the selection of coil size on this range. Beginning in 1957 there was a switch on the left side of the console that allowed the user to select Full Coil/Inner Coil for the Automatic unit. If it exists it should be easy to see, I don't see anything that looks like that, but you have a better view than do I.

Here's a thread that contains information on how to repair the Telechron clock rotor (I'm certain yours has an "H3" type rotor -- it will be stamped on its housing), which is the likely culprit for your range's non-working clock. CLICK HERE TO GO TO RP2813's LINK |
