burnt out oven element
Examined replacement part for correctness and necessary screws. Turned off power via circuit breaker. Loosened two screws holding the element. Pulled it out; removed the screws making contact with power lines. Cleaned all contacts and area around mounting hole. Installed the new element with new screws. Put the face plate back into the mounting hole. turned on the power via the circuit breaker. It worked fine. Thank you. Adele Ward, Atlanta, GA

Shaft for burner control knob broke off
I flipped breaker off for electic and confirmed that power to the stove was off. I removed the 2 screws holding the control unit in place. Carefully removed all knobs and buttons and pryed the cover for the control unit off. I then removed old part, removed the wired and clipped wires to the new unit. Put cover back on - has some difficulty getting the panel back in place to line up the screws. But after a couple of attempts, was able to line up unit and put screws in place to secure. Replaced all knobs. Turn breaker back on and cooked lunch. Very easy job. Most difficult part was getting panel back in position. I would watch alignment more carefully before I removed in next time. Easy home repair for Women...not sure about my man?

Scorched Element
It wasn't so much the repair that was needed as how impressed I was with the fast delivery. Without a fourth burner & a holiday weekend coming up I was in desperate need of my element. I ordered it around 1:00 pm on a friday & it was delivered the next day before noon! Very impressed with the ease of ordering & receiving. Thanks again.

The lower baking element was burned out and not heating
I simply removed two screws that were holding the bake element bracket onto the oven wall. Pulled the bake element away from the wall about 2 inches and then removed the two screws that were connecting the electric cables. Reverse the process when installing the new bake element. *Tip - Removing the door will make access easier but it is not required. Just make sure you have adequate lighting so that you can see the holes.

Bottom Element not working
First I would like to say I got this part very quickly. After getting the product I rechecked online how to change the old element. Got out a couple of tools and went to work. At first it was difficult to remove it only because it was the original and it was tight. Used a little liquid wrench and out came the screws. I hooked up the new element turned on the stove and I had our oven back working. Would definitely recommend anyone to use partselect.com Thanks for a great repair experience!
