Front Burner Would Not Heat

I cut the power to the circuit. Removed the burner and then unscrewed the old aluminum plate attached to the range top cover. Opened the topcover to access the wires. I cut the two wires being sure that I left enough length. I then slipped the two new wires with the brass contacts into the new black plastic holder until it locked. Reattached the new metal plate to the range cover, fed the wires through and snapped the new plastic holder into the aluminum plate. Secured wire ends with the ceramic wire nuts. Total time about 30 minutes.

Burner would not heat up.

Removed 2 screws, cut the wires, pulled the part out that the element plugs into. Replaced the old part with the new one and put the screws back in to hold it, reconnected the wires and plugged in the element. Turned stove on and Valaaaa! It was fixed in 10 minutes! Thanks for the great repair parts!

JUST PLUG IN INTO THE OUTLET ON THE STOVE

THIS WAS A STOVE TOP BURNER ELEMENT ///

COMPUTER ... AND THAT WAS A VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE
TALKING TO A LIVE PERSON WHO WAS VERY PLEASANT
AND HELPFUL. i WISH i'D WRITTEN DOWN HER NAME.
NOTHING LIKE "LIVE COMMUNICATIONS" i CAME FROM
THE DEPRESSION ERA... WHEN PEOPLE STILL TALKED TO
ONE ANOTHER RATHER THAN HAVING THEIR HEADS BPWED
DOWN TO THE CELL PHONES! O WELL..THAT'S PROGRESS!

Simple - needed to replace the drip pans on the stove between tenants in a rental apartment

This wasn't much of a repair -- rather a replacement of a simple abused part. At the same time, PartSelect allowed me to order what I needed after two failed attempts to buy replacements that would fit the range. I'll remember PartSelect if we need parts for other older appliances in the rental units.
