Oven wires arced and caused the terminal block to melt and become detached from the back of the range
Removed the wires that I could, then terminal block. Installing the new terminal block was very easy; however the wires that arced were fused to the terminal bock screws and needed to be cut and new connectors had to be put on the wires to allow them to be reattached to the block safely.
Once all was replaced and reinstalled the oven has worked great. The length of the repair was increased because of the melted parts and having to run to the store to get the new wire connectors big enough to fit on the wires. If we were simply replacing the block and had not encountered the melted ends, it would have been a very quick and easy repair.

plastic bushing broke --- turntable was just a non-turning table
It took me a burnt bag of Orville's popcorn to notice that the turntable wasn't turning. After a tantrum and a bit of foul language, I Googled the brand & model. Up popped Parts Select of whom I'd never heard. THE PARTS LOCATOR IS FANTASTIC! I found exactly what I needed---checked a few other sources, but found nothing. I was a bit hesitant at ordering, but decided any site as well designed and intricate as this couldn't be a fake. Next pleasant surprise was that after ordering late Dec 26, the part was on my doorstep Dec 28! I ripped open that envelope, trotted into the kitchen, and stuck that bushing right onto the thing-a-ma-gig. That baby spun like a merry-go-round! Parts Select gets 6 out of a possible 5 stars in my book!

Turntable motor was worn out - gears were slipping
The job was very simple, remove the bottom plate of the microwave which is four screws and it exposes the motor. There are two screws which hold the motor in place that you access from inside the unit. Remove the two screws being carefull not to lose the gasket that is in between the motor and the bottom of the unit. Set the new motor in place being sure to add the gasket to the new part and run the two screws to the new motor and tighten! It don't get any easier than that! Also do not forget to plug the motor back into the female socket before attaching the bottom plate!

wrong part
my original part arrived and it did not fit. When I called to explain the problem I was told it was the wrong part. The big problem is... Frigidaire calls the receptacle a terminal block kit as well as a terminal block kit which is a totally different part. I tried to explain that to several different folks I spoke to at your company as well as Frigidaire but I'm not sure if I got that point across. Take a look at part # 530 393 5058 and part # 530 440 9888 and you will see that they both mention terminal block kit. Hopefully the part I am getting from Frigidaire is an OEM part and will fit.

Oven wasn't baking; broiler was OK.
1. Switched the oven power off.
2. Tried unscrewing the two screws in the rear of the oven but they were
too tight. Used a power screw driver to unscrew the bottom element. 3. Pulled element out and disconnected the two wires.
4. Attached the two wires to the new bake element and fastened it
with the two screws.
5. Switched the oven power on.
6. Tested the oven with good results!

No Power to the Oven
Watching the video showed an easy, unscrew and screw back on process while connecting the wires back. It was really that simple. Once it was complete (not even 10mins), plugged it back in, and its been working great since.
