Lower element in oven not heating.
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! : )

Heat was escaping from my oven and really heating up my house
The heat sealing strips are elastic type material with hooks on each end. I simply removed the old strips and hooked the new ones in place.
It was easier than I ever dreamed possible!
And my kitchen is now nice and cool.

needed to replace a side oven door seal
The trickiest part was making sure that the correct part was ordered. The first attempt was a failure. The seal was too long and the clips were too big.
After finding the correct part it was a breeze.

burned oven bulb
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 light bulb in was not the problem.
