The original yellow lead- which runs from back of control panel through back of oven and connects directly to bake element- burned through. Have removed original and need part number and source for replacement. Carl

Here is the parts list for your range. Controls & cooktop replacement parts for General Electric RB787WC1WW Electric range \| AppliancePartsPros.com I could not even find a replacement wire harness, but what I would do anyway is splice in a new piece of high temperature oven wire and crimp a new high temp spade on the end of it to plug into the heating element. I also could not located any high temp oven wire on the APP site, maybe someone else can locate it for us or you should be able to pick up a piece at your local appliance repair shop too.

If you splice it behind the oven were it gets hot I would also use a ceramic wire nut, but I would try to make the splice up in the control panel if you can.
