removed the plug that had burned up on one of the top burners, replaced it with a new plug purchased from parts select., it was quite easy ,I unpluged stove and raise the top exposing wiring for the burners cut the old plug wiring and connected the wires for the new plug with connectors and shrink tubing supplied in the repair kit easy and quick repair
I had previously partially removed the element and tested with multi-meter to determine that it was not working (open circuit). Repair procedure follows:
Turned off Power Removed 2 retaining screws Pulled element out part way Removed 2 spade connectors supplying power Replaced element w/new element Reversed procedure Tested Oven; worked fine.
The new handle, braces and screws arrived as quoted. My son-in-law installed the new one without much trouble. The handle is black and matches the black front of my stove. The older handle was sort of a wood-brown. Thus I like the new one better. Thank you for good service and prompt attention to the problem. Linda Archibald Hanson, MA
Of course, power off first, then I removed the old one and inserted the new one, make sure everything in right place, then turn on power, simple as 1-2-3.
Ordered the part Friday afternoon. It was delivered early on Saturday afternoon. Very impressed with the speed of the delivery! Power off, unscrew the old part, replace, screw the plate back on. Easy!
Old element arced bigtime so we figured it was time - 18 years old!
I read other other posts and followed their advice. Remove the 2 screws holding the element to the back of the oven...gently pull it out about 3" to reveal the connecting wires. I found the needle nose pliers were necessary to detach and reattach the wires. Don't yank! Be aware that the wires have a tendency to want to pull back into the back of the oven while they're loose. This was a wall oven and that woul've been a large problem if they they had. Otherwise it was a snap!
First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires fom the old element .. connected them to the new element ... put the screws back ...and tested. problem solved
The bottom element of the oven stopped working, therefore, we could not bake anything.
First, I turned the breaker off to the oven, that's the most important step. Next, I turned on the oven to make sure the oven was not energized. I then took out two phillips screws that were holding the baking element in place. Next I pulled the element out slowly to expose the wires that connected to the element. I removed the connecters, took out the damaged element, replaced it with the new element. Last, I screwed the two phillips screws back in, and saved a $65.00 service call.
The bake element burned out and the oven wouldn't heat.
First, my son pulled the range out and I unplugged it. Then he removed the 2 screws that hold the element in place. He then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the wires. Then he placed the new element in the oven, connected the wires and put in the screws back in. It worked immediately!!
The original bake element cracked, causing sparks and a small, brief fire on the crack. Next, the element would not heat.
First I turned off the circuit breaker to the oven. Then, I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches to disconnect the two wires. The connectors were tight, so required a little wiggling to disconnect the wires.
Upon receipt of the replacement element, I turned off the circuit breaker to the oven. Then, I reconnected the element wires, pushed the connect wires into the back of the oven, and rescrewed the unit in place. With the circuit breaker turned back on, I tested the oven. It worked great. Very easy!
Was able to use a philips screwdriver and remove 2 screws. I then clean the bottom of the oven. The installation was even easier. Took less than 5 minutes. Saved over $60.00 in labor cost
Removed the 2 screws that hold the element in place. Pulled the element forward about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires. Plugged the wire clips onto the new element and pushed the element back into place. Put the 2 screws back into place. This was a very easy repair.
