CustomerArsenio from Beaverton OR
Three of four electric coils won't turn on
I took out the coils manually by pulling them out with slight pressure. Then I lift the hood by first unscrewing the four screws. I have never done anything like this before just intuitive sense to locate the screws that needed to be loosened. Afterwards I remember placing something underneath like a piece of 2x4 wood block to act as support to hold the hood open so I can work on the coils. The parts I got are exactly the same as those I am replacing so I just copied the connection and voila my electric range is working like new. Well of course before I touched anything, I made sure I turned off the main switch and that nobody switches it back on without my knowledge. Thanks for providing the parts, I just saved myself from buying a $600 electric range.

CustomerCHARLES from SOMERSWORTH NH
Cooktop elements worked intermittantly.
TURN THE POWER OFF TO THE UNIT. REMOVE THE COLD ELEMENT BY LIFTING UP AND PULLING OUT. REMOVE THE DRIP PAN. REMOVE THE ELEMENT PLUG SCREW AND PULL THE PLUG UP AND OUT OF THE SOCKET. CUT THE LEADS TO THE PLUG AS CLOSE TO THE PLUG END AS POSSIBLE TO ALLOW ENOUGH WIRE TO SPLICE THE NEW PLUG IN. STRIP THE INSULLATION BACK 3/8" TO ALLOW FOR SPLICING. INSTALL THE SHRINK TUBE COLLAR ON THE WIRE AND PLACE ONE NEW LEAD (PRESTRIPPED AT THE FACTORY)NEXT TO THE OLD WIRE AND PLACE THE WIRE NUT PROVIDED OVER THE BARE WIRE ENDS AND TWIST IT ON UNTIL IT IS TIGHT. BEND THE WIRE NUT SPLICE BACK OVER ONE OF THE LEADS AND SLIDE THE SHRINK TAPE OVER IT. HEAT UP THE SHRINK TAPE WITH A HAIR DRYER TO MAKE IT TIGHT OVER THE WIRE NUT CONNECTION. REPEAT THE PROCESS FOR THE NEXT LEAD. SLIDE THE LEADS INTO THE NEW SOCKET. INSTALL THE SOCKET AND SECURE THE THE NEW SCREW PROVIDED. REINSTALL THE DRIP PAN AND PLUG IN THE HEAT ELEMENT. FOLLOW THE SAME PROCEDURE FOR EACH ELEMENT SOCKET REPLACED. TURN THE POWER BACK ON.

Burner broken
I removed the block, cut and spliced the wires to the new block and installed the burner. I used the new style block kit and saved about $30. It worked great!

CustomerTina from Laurel MT
2 of the burners were not working arching and smoking
Time was do to the fact that I replaced two elements! I turned off the power to the braker box, unplugged the stove and removed the screw holding the element plug in, removed the part, and cut the wires where they were clean looking (not damaged by smoke or the arch) I then stripped the wire and took the new part and twisted the parts together with the caps and then put the heat shrink on and used the blow dryer on them, attached the part to the bracket and screwed it to the hood of the stove plugged the burner in, plugged in the oven and turned on the power tested it worked, did the same for the next burner and yes mind you I am a woman it was very easy to do.

CustomerRaymond from Rock Hill SC
Right front surface burner did not work due to broken burner plug in wire harness.
Cut power. Removed four attaching screws and raised stove top. Cut two wires of existing burner plug. Used existing plug to select correct plug configuration from parts in kit. Attached new plug and wires to wiring harness using connectors and heat-shrink tubing supplied with kit. Used hair dryer to shrink tubing on connectors. Closed up stove. Restored power. Burner now functional.
