Oven wouldn't heat - wire not exposed
1 person found this instruction helpful.
  • Donald from Gulf Breeze, FL
  • A Bit Difficult
  • 1- 2 hours
  • Nutdriver, Screw drivers
Removed two screws and removed the oven elelent. One wire was not through the back of the stove. Ordered new element anyway. Slid stove out (slide-in model). Unplugged power. Removed two covers protecting wires on back of stove. Found wire for oven element. Had to cut and strip end of wire and use new blade clip. Crimped new clip to wire and inserted into oven through back of stove. Replaced covers. Plugged oven element to wires and tried out oven. WORKED ! Saved new oven element for next time. Difficulty encounted was lack of knowledge on where stove was screwed into counter-top and what size blade clip to buy. It always helps to have a dog 3" away just itching to lend a paw.

My heatng element blew up
2 of 4 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Ruth from Charlotte, NC
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Nutdriver, Wrench (Adjustable)
I followed the way all the others on this website did the repair. It was so easy. I turned the power off to the oven, then disconnected it from the back oven wall, pulled it out a bit, disconnected the wires, and put it back in.

Then we put the power back on and stood back and turned on the stove and IT WORKED!!! Yeah, and for so little money... I tell you I shopped other websites and this one was priced GREAT, and just reading the stories how others had done this repair gave me the confidence to do it too. Now, I think I have a burner that I will replace and who knows what else I can find to do.

THANKS SO MUCH!!!

7. The element was then able to go in all the way.
8. Replaced two hex head screws.
9. Turned on range breaker.
