Can I look up Frigidaire parts by model number?
Yes. For your Frigidaire LFEH3051VFA free standing electric range, looking up parts by the full model number is the most reliable way to get compatible replacement parts because it matches the exact configuration, wiring, and component revisions used on your range.
The model and serial tag is typically located where you can see it after opening the lower oven drawer or storage drawer. The LFEH3051VFA owner's manual also points you to the serial plate location and other product record details.
Tips for reading the tag correctly:
- Copy the model number exactly as printed (letters and numbers).
- Use the full model number, not just “LFEH3051”.
- Record the serial number too; it can matter for production changes.
- If the tag is hard to read, take a clear photo and zoom in.
When you search by model number, you can narrow parts down by the exact subsystem (cooktop, oven, controls, wiring) and avoid ordering a similar-looking part that does not fit.
Common examples for LFEH3051VFA include:
- Heating issues: range oven temperature sensor 316490000, bake element, broil element
- Surface burner problems: surface element control switch
- Electrical connection issues: terminal block
| Symptom | Likely part category | Example part on this model |
|---|---|---|
| Oven temperature seems off | Sensor | Range oven temperature sensor |
| Oven will not bake | Heating | Bake element |
| Burner will not regulate heat | Control | Surface element control switch |
Ranges often have multiple versions that look the same but use different switches, sensors, or wiring harnesses. Using the exact LFEH3051VFA model number helps us match the correct Frigidaire parts the first time and reduces returns and downtime.

How do I reset my Frigidaire electric range?
To reset your Frigidaire LFEH3051VFA electric range, turn the range off and cycle power at the breaker (or unplug it) for about 30 seconds, then restore power. If the oven and all surface elements still do not heat, focus next on the home power supply and range wiring.
- Set all surface controls to OFF.
- If the cord is accessible, unplug the range for 30 seconds, then plug it back in.
- If the cord is not accessible, switch the range breaker OFF for 30 seconds, then switch it back ON.
- Confirm the control panel powers up normally.
- Test one surface element and then bake.
When a range is recently installed, a no-heat condition often points to an electrical supply issue (for example, missing one “hot” leg on a 240V circuit). We recommend checking these items first:
- Confirm the range is on a dedicated circuit and the breaker is fully reset.
- Check for a loose or burned connection at the power cord terminal block.
- Inspect the power cord for damage.
- If you are comfortable using a meter, follow how to use a multimeter to test electrical parts video to verify power (or have a qualified technician test it).
| Symptom | Most likely cause | What to check next |
|---|---|---|
| Control panel lights up, but oven and all burners are cold | Supply/wiring issue | Breaker, terminal block, cord connections |
| Only one burner will not heat | Failed surface control or element | Switch, element, wiring to that burner |
| Oven heats poorly or temperature is erratic | Sensor or control issue | Sensor resistance, wiring, calibration |
Only replace parts after confirming the failure with testing.
- Universal/multiflex (Frigidaire) range terminal block 5303935271 (power cord connection point)
- Range oven control board 5304515464 (controls bake/broil functions)
- Range oven temperature sensor 316490000 (helps regulate oven temperature)
A reset clears a temporary control glitch, but a true “no heat” condition is often electrical. Correct power and secure connections protect the control board, heating elements, and wiring from damage.
For model-specific operating and troubleshooting steps, use the LFEH3051VFA owner’s manual.

How do I tell what model my Frigidaire stove is?
On a Frigidaire range like model LFEH3051VFA, the model number is printed on the serial plate (rating label). The most common place to find it is by opening the lower storage drawer and checking the oven front frame area; record the model and serial exactly as shown.
These are the standard serial plate locations called out for this style of Frigidaire range:
- Open the storage drawer and look on the oven front frame near the drawer opening
- Check the right-hand surface of the oven front frame (around the drawer opening)
- Look at the lower panel area on the front frame
- On some installations, the label can be in an alternate location under the cooktop
- Use a flashlight; wipe the label clean so letters and numbers are easy to read
Copy each item exactly, including any dashes or suffix letters.
| Label item | Example | What we use it for |
|---|---|---|
| Model number | LFEH3051VFA | Correct diagrams and part fit |
| Serial number | (varies) | Version and production run details |
| Lot number/letter (if listed) | (varies) | Improves accuracy for service inquiries |
For the exact label locations and illustrations for this model, use the LFEH3051VFA installation guide or the LFEH3051VFA owner’s manual.
Frigidaire ranges that look alike can use different bake elements, oven temperature sensors, and surface element control switches. Using the exact model number from the serial plate prevents ordering a part that does not fit.

What is the life expectancy of a Frigidaire electric range?
A Frigidaire electric range like model LFEH3051VFA typically lasts 13 to 15 years with normal household use. Consistent cleaning, avoiding overheating, and fixing small issues early (like inaccurate oven temps or weak heating) helps you reach the full service life.
Most free standing electric ranges fall into a predictable lifespan range, but real-world results depend on heat load, cleaning habits, and electrical health.
- Daily high-heat cooking and frequent self-clean cycles can shorten lifespan.
- Keeping the oven cavity and vents clean reduces heat stress on wiring and controls.
- Stable power (proper outlet, tight connections) protects the control board and switches.
- Replacing wear items early (elements, sensors, light parts) prevents bigger failures.
- Using the correct cookware size on surface elements reduces cycling and overheating.
If the range is heating poorly or temperatures drift, it is often repairable.
| Symptom | Common cause | Example part for LFEH3051VFA |
|---|---|---|
| Oven temperature swings or bakes unevenly | Failing sensor | Range oven temperature sensor 316490000 |
| No bake heat or slow preheat | Burned-out bake element | Frigidaire range bake element 316413800 |
| Weak or no broil | Failed broil element | Frigidaire range broil element 316203301 |
| Surface element won’t regulate heat | Worn infinite switch | Frigidaire range surface element control switch 316436001 |
We recommend following the care and cleaning schedule and operating guidance in the LFEH3051VFA owner’s manual.
- Wipe spills promptly to prevent baked-on residue and smoke.
- Keep the oven door seal clean and intact to hold heat efficiently.
- Avoid slamming the oven door; it stresses hinges and the door liner.
- If you suspect temperature issues, test and replace the sensor before recalibrating repeatedly.
A range that holds temperature and cycles correctly cooks more evenly, uses less energy, and puts less strain on high-cost components like the oven control board and wiring harness.
