RK38*J1 Hotpoint Wall Oven - Instructions

I used an adjustable wrench and within 15 minutes I had the old element out and the new heating element installed

remove and replace

I googled the part based on my stove model # and was instantly brought to the sit to order it. Much cheaper than purchasing a brand new oven! Unplugged oven from socket, unscrewed the 2 nuts in back of oven (inside), pulled element out a bit and disconnected two screws from power wires. Put in new element, connected two screws to power wires, pushed back through hole, screwed on two bolts, plugged in and oven works better than ever!

disconnected power to range, unscrewed plate holding element to back of oven. To disconnect old element from leads a bit difficult because they are flexible. So we braced the plate on a piece of wood so things wouldn't twist. It was a little hard to find the right size nut but once found the little screws came loose with a little tugging. A flashlight came in handy. We then put new element in, reversed the procedure, tightened everything, reconnected power, did a test and voila our new element began to glow red. We were happy to save $$ on the element cost but we avoided paying for a repairmen. Great

With repair part handy, I removed old element and with four screws, disassembled. Then with the new element, replaced. Used advise on website, and quickly replaced. It now works like new. No Problem

place circuit breaker off... removed the door,removed 2 screws from plate,removed wires from the Element and installed new Element replace door...put circuit back on...

removed two screws holding element in place. then i pulled the element out disconnected two wires. Reconnected the two wires to the new element pushed it back in place and secured unit with two screws

No real problems, except for the length of the leads. Used alligator clip to hold wire coming out of the back of the oven so I did not lose them in back of oven wall. All fit great and works fine now.. Thanx, John

very easy just follow what you need to do taking the element out but in reverse.

As others have written, it was simple and straightforward.. remove the back plate by removing two screws.. pull element forward until electrical wires are exposed.. Remove the two screws which attach the wires and remove failed element. Reverse the process to install the element..only difference between the broken element and the replacement one is that that the new one used machine screws instead of sheet metal-type screws.. Thankfully, the proper screws were included with the new element. Total time less than 30 minutes.

I had previously removed the old element by loosening and removing the two screws to the back wall, pulling the element out the few inches slack in the wires and removing the two screws from the wire lugs to the element. When the new element came in, I just worked in reverse - attached the wire lugs to the new element, pushed it to the back of the oven, placed and tightened down the screws to the back of the oven.

Just followed simple on line instructions from your web site.Real easy. If I can do it ===Yoy can.

First,I removed the oven door and shelving. I unpluged the range. Then I removed the plate holding the element to the wall of the oven. I then pulled gently on the prongs until they were visable. I then pulled the plugs from each end of the element. After that I plugged in the prongs on the new element, pushed them back into the oven wall, attached the plate with the two socket screws, turned on the oven and had great pride that I was able to fix this myself! This took all of 15 minutes! It was very easy and I thank this company,"Part Select" for the DIY instructions and for having the part that I needed. Doing business with you was a pleasure and you are very prompt and kind.I am certainly recommending you to all of my friends! Thank you. Patricia

We followed the directions on the part select website and those of the others who used this website, and the repair was quick and easy. We will be glad to use part select for parts and directions again without hesitating.

The element had to be replaced. I called for assistance in finding the right heating element for this old stove. customer service was very helpful since I didn't have the whole model number of the stove. It was at my door the very next day and went in very easy.
