AER1350AAH Admiral Range - Instructions

Removed heating element, installed new drip pan, replaced heating element. Was amazed at fast delivery - ordered in afternoon, arrived fed ex next morning!

Watched the accompanying video on the website. Very glad I did as the key thing to remember when replaceing the bake element is that the connecting wires ARE VERY SHORT and can easily snap back inside the element lead hole in the back of the oven. Lead on the left side had a small amount of play but the right side element wire was extremely short and "snapped" back into the hole. I had to use needle nose pliers to pull it back through. Just take your time and keep your fingers on the leads as best you can.

The bake element repair itself was very easy and straightforward. The difficulty and extra time involved relates to improper wiring of the electrical circuit the range plugged into. A previous homeowner had apparently taken a shortcut when repairing a faulty di-pole circuit breaker and routed one side of the 240v circuit through a separate single-pole breaker which is a blatant electrical code violation. After replacing the faulty di-pole breaker and wiring the circuit properly the bake element repair was simple and the oven is working great. While most DIY folks will not run into this same problem with an improperly wired electrical circuit it pays to be cautious. I relied on the di-pole breaker to cut power to the oven during the repair but because one side of the circuit had been rerouted I received a nasty shock. Please do what I failed to do originally: unplug the range/oven at the wall before making the repair. And if you suspect improper wiring of the 240v circuit, please consult an electrician as it is a dangerous situation.

After being told that a replacement knob was unavailable for over 5 yrs., I was very excited when I was told that I could order it online. Was one of the easiest and most successful repairs that I have ever done. Thanks so much.

I called my son, left the part, two screw drivers out, went to work, came home and was able to use my oven again! It couldn't have been easier and I made him some zucchine cake as a thank you for doing the job! It was easy to order and pay for the part online, get the part within a week and I was back in business. Thanks for being available to make getting the part a no-hassle experience.

New receptacle element. I am a girl and I did it.!!!!

I had determined that the the burner itself was no longer capable of connecting because when I removed another burner and inserted it, it worked just fine. Also, the defective burner had not worked when inserted into another outlet. I was delighted to be able to purchase a replacement so quickly and easily on my own, without having to call a repair person or seek a retail outlet.

I ordered both the light bulb and the switch that controls it. I had not pulled the stove out because the ones I bought this house from did not level the floor which meant I had to wait on a socket set to arrive in order to be able to pull my stove away from the wall. Once I got the socket set and the stove out I removed the panel on the back. I saw then that my red light bulb had shattered in half forcing the switch to just hang free. Glad I had ordered both parts, removed the old, replaced new with ease... then it was a matter of sliding the panel back in place without the main control panel getting misaligned, few trial and error checks and it went back with ease. New light works! Very easy.. probably less time if your floor is level.. then I had to play with the little legs to get it even again. For now it is ok until the spring where I go to redo the floor and make it all LEVEL! Very easy! Hope it doesn't burn out again but if it does I know what to do! Maytag rep wanted to charge me $100... No thanks!

There were NO directions in the box, only a schematic. I was unable to locate the old one as my husband had removed it. So I had to guess which color wire connected to which plug. Good thing I guessed right the 1st time! so you might want to include installation instructions going forward.

Was easy cut the wires of as told to do wire nut the ends together and put back together and tested and worked great. Done

Removed glass and then two screws to remove metal plate pulled out socket,disconnected two wires and installed new socket.

I followed the instructions given on your great site. Thank you so much.

My husband did it within minutes. Very easy.
