Unable to find 30 year old Gaggenau Oven EB 378 610 part (midwest.social)

Every once in a while, the heating element seems to break on my Gaggenau EB 378 610 oven. Other than that, it works fine.

This time though, I am unable to find a replacement part since the manufacturer discontinued it. I searched everywhere online and on eBay, but was still unable to find it.

I would rather not buy a new oven since that would be very expensive and I like this one. Does anyone have any ideas about where I can find a replacement heating element? Or am I out of luck?

It's a convection element, part #00098494, 100L

Suspiciously there is a Bosch heating element with the same part number You might want to check to see if they are equivalent.

I believe they are - in fact, Bosch acquired Gaggenau at some point. Unfortunately, it looks like both Bosch and Gaggenau discontinued the part :(

This one is from model 378610 but may work: https://www.appliancepartspros.com/bosch-convection-ring-element-298486-ap2801330.html
