Burned Out Broil Element
The repair went ok. I did have to take the back off the stove in order to get to the wire connectors. Needed an extra person to move the stove out of it's location. Just had to be careful.
Burner was unreliable...would stop working...I had already replaced the burner
I did as the video suggested.....I cut the old wires and spliced new ones already attached to the new terminal block. It would have been nice to have some instructions with the parts as I expected one piece but had to connect the wires to the new block and the new metal cover. I was guessing a bit. Also, I needed to use the holder strip off my old part so that it displaced the new part back far enough to insert the burner connections. That meant finding a screw and nut small enough to allow the metal cover to fit on the block. But the burner works great. I've learned that any repair requires some ingenuity.
the wires were not long enough to use the original path.
the original path was from the right front control knob around the back of the range and left side of range,which i dismantaled to install the new wires to the right front burner. When I found them to be to short I had to also dismantal the right side so the wires could be routed there. The new wires worked fine but did take some extra time.
shut off power to range, removed old element, looked up part on line, shopped for best price, Part select was $30 less than sears replacement part, ordered part, part arrived in 4 days, installed new part and I was broling again.
I did not do it, I instead had my neighbor put the gasket around the light lens cover and replace it. He considers himself a handy man, so it was easy for him.
1)Undid two hex nuts holding broiler element in place. 2)Slipped fasteners off pegs connecting element to oven. 3)Simply reversed the process, when installing new element.
Finding a drip pan that fit so that pots could sit level.
Ordered the drip pan from ParSelect.com. Unplugged element and took out old pan. Placed new pan in and replaced element. For the first time in many years, the part fit.
We did the repair by following the inclosed instructions. we are elderly retired average ages 82. This was our first repair and it went very well. We are so pleased to have saved over $80.00 compared with hired labor 3 yre. ago for the same part. Thanks so much for your good service.
turn off power, remove 2 screws, lift off of hanger , slide out far enough to unplug wires. remove brackets from old element, I did have to use a screw driver to open up bracket to slide over new element(new element a little larger diameter coil) reverse removal. DONE !! Thank You Part Select !
