Removed, tested and measured the old element. Got on line to find the part and ran across Part Select. Ordered and received the part in three business days. It was an exact fit and in good order. The total operation including removal and replacement of the element, locating and ordering the part only took about thirty minutes.....and that includes the ten minutes it took me to find my #2 Phillips screwdriver! : )

  • Daniel from Prescott, MI
  • A Bit Difficult
  • 1- 2 hours
  • Pliers, Screw drivers, Wrench (Adjustable)
I started by removing the door, then trying to remove all of the screws in the oven casing. Of course the very middle screw in the bottom of the oven was rusted and dammged by use. I had to use a drill bit and remove the old screw. After dissasembly of the oven casing, I found that the lip that supports the gasket was rusted and burnt awa y about 3/4 in. I placed the new gasket in and found that when closed it covered this defect and sealed. I reassembled and cheked for operation.Ok! Imortant--remove the elements before removing oven casing.

burned oven bulb

  • Ivanka from Atlantra, GA
  • Really Easy
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Pliers, Screw drivers
The hardest part was taking out original light bulb because screws on shield where hard to unscrew after all this years . The old bulb vent out leaving neck in socket. It took narrow electrical pliers to get neck out .The generic appliance bulb did not fit and had aluminum neck ,not recommended for brass sockets in ovens.Putting new ligh t bulb in was not the problem.

The bake element was corroding.
  • Jeffrey from Abilene, TX
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Screw drivers
I turned breaker off for oven, removed screws from element mount, pulled the element out about two inches, then slid wire connectors up to unhook from element. Then set new element in, slid wire connectors on to back new element, then used pliers to make sure they were tight and secure by squeezing them, screwed element back in, turned br eaker back on. Turned oven onto bake and left on for few minutes while it burned chemicals off element. Very simple!!
