CustomerBrad from Bedford KY
Bake element burned out, bunt like a sparkler.
Ordered the part on Friday, got it on Saturday, very impressive. Be sure to unplug the range or disconnect the power at the breaker box before any repairs are started.
The lower (Bake) element is held in by 2 screws. Remove them and gently pull out the element to remove the power wires connected to the element. These wires are very short and there is not much room in which to work. After having removed the wire connectors one slipped from my fingers and went back in the small opening in the back of the oven where the element is inserted. It took some time to fish out the wire. Not wanting to slide out the range I used some surgical forcepts I happen to have grab the wire ( handy to clip wires or compontents in place for some delicate repairs). Its all blind and the opening is very small plus the insulation must be pushed back to gain access. Anyway I managed to grab the wire, attached both wires to the element, replaced the plate and screws holding the element in place, all finished. Worked great. Other ranges I have owned provided a socket to plug in the element, I guess the bottom line gets in the way of quality.. Being 60 years old the worst part of this job is the getting down on my knees to do the work and getting back up again.

Old element burned up
I started by lifting the front of the stove and slipping a towel under it so it would slide easier and not scratch the floor. The next step was to unplug the stove, after that, I removed the shelves. The next step was to remove the cover plate on the b ack to expose the connection. I removed the old element by pulling the to slide-on connections and the two mounting screws. At this point I took the time to clean the oven since the element was not in the way. To install the new element I did the opposite of th removal process.

Bake element cracked and shorted out
First, I made sure the power was turned off at the breaker box so I didn't electrocute myself. Then, I took out the 2 screws that hold the element in place, then pulled it out and unplugged the wires. I plugged the wires onto the new element, and replaced the screws. My daughter could have done this....

Bake element burnt out
Real happy on how fast the new part came. 1.Pulled oven away from wall and unplugged the unit & removed baking racks. 2.Removed the back wire cover behind the oven (3 screws). 3.Used the nutdriver to carefully remove the two holding screws inside the oven. Then I pulled the element towards me to expose the wires. 4. Using the pliers, I disconnected the element from the wires. 5. Using my son's help, I had him push the new element leads into the holes in the back while I connected the leads to the wires behind the oven. 6. Replace the two element retaining screws inside the oven. 7. Replaced the rear panel with the 3 screws. 8. Put the oven back in place and plugged it in. The oven worked perfectly!

CustomerLisa from San Jose CA
Bake element burned up and broke into pieces
First, we turned off the electricity for the whole house, since we didn't want to pull the unit away from the wall and possibly damage our new floors. We then used a socket wrench to remove the 2 nuts holding in the broken element. After that, we pulled out the old element, and this is where the difficulty came into play. The wires for the element stayed inside the back of the oven, and nothing we did could make them come out. We tried for a long time to get the wires to come back out into the oven, but our fingers were not long enough, and nothing we inserted into the space helped the situation.
Since we had turned the electricity off and still were reluctant to move the oven ourselves, we actually decided to call in a repair person (cost: $90). What he did, though was really simple:
He pulled the oven out from the wall. Used a screwdriver to open the back panel of the oven and was able to pull out the wires. Then, he inserted the new element, hooked it up to the wires, and closed back up the back panel. Then, he moved the oven back into place.
The repair person did this in all of 5 minutes, so if my husband and I had thought about the back panel, we would have easily done it ourselves.

Heating element went bad
I turned off the breaker for the oven. I used a electric drill with a 1/4 in socket to unscrew the two bolts inside the bottom of the oven. Then I pulled out the heating element and slid off one connector and attached it to the new element. Then I slid off the other connector and attached it to the new element. Then I screwed the bolts back. I turned the breaker back on and it worked great.

Oven baking element was burned out.
My husband actually did the replacement but I did all the research online to find the right part. I wasn't sure we'd find it for our old stove but luckily we did and it works fine. Thanks for the super fast service!

Heating element
The heating element in my electric oven cracked, I had something boil over onto the element, cracking it to the point of it sparking. First time I had ever seen this before. The appliance repair shop was going to charge me a small fortune to fix this so I ordered the part online, which it was 10.00 cheaper from here than from any other site. It got to me quickly and took me less than 15 minutes to repair and everything works great. All I had to do was unbolt 2 screws with a ratchet, unplug the element, plug in the new one, and bolt it back up and I was done!

Burnt out element
Turn off circuit breaker. Lockout (LOTO) circuit breaker. Pull stove away from wall to access the rear of range. Remove seven (7) screws from rear cover with nutdriver / screwdriver. Carefully, disconnect stake-on terminals (wires) from element (may need to use needle nose pliers). Open oven, remove racks. Remove two (2) screws holding element in place with nutdriver. Remove old broken element. Insert new element. Fasten with screws previously removed. Close oven door. Go to rear of unit. Reconnect wires to element. Make sure insulation seals around the element. Inspect for any other damage; repair as may be required. Replace cover panel and fasten with the seven screws previously removed.
Does not hurt to vacuum and clean the area stove, too. Push stove back into position. Remove LOTO and turn on circuit breaker (power)
Turn oven on to highest temp to bake off any contaminates on element. Turn OFF. Let cool. Replace racks a/r. Close oven door.
Invite the pretty girl next door to come over to bake something.... OK, this part is optional.

Element burnt into pieces
Received part very quickly, easy to install, just give yourself enough wire on terminals when you pull them out, I let mine slip into holes they come out of and had to fish it out. EASY job.
