very easy

Ordered a left & right hinge. Paid considerably more for the left hinge but both hinges were identical when received.
Bolt holes in both hinges were not tapped for the bolts which were sent with the hinges. This required a trip to the hardstore to get a tap set. After the bolt holds were tapped there was no problem removing the old hinges and installing the new ones.

Screwed in light bulb and glass protector

I pulled down the wire around the glass cover. . . Released on end of the wire from its holder being careful to not let the glass cover drop. Unscrewed the bulb and replaced with replacement. Easy, easy.

removed back plate screw, removed two broiler screws. Disconnected wires in back plate by sliding them off of connectors. removed broiler coil and assembly. Using pliers, bent retaining hooks off of old coil, removed it and replaced it with the new coil. Reversed process.

r & r hinge. very poor pivot pin which leads to frequent replacement of hinge assembly, cheaply made, weak spot is hinge pin pivot rivet.

Ordered hinge, went to Sears bought some tools to finish manufacturing the hinge, tapped out the screw hole, installed the hinge.

We turned off the power, removed the two screws on the little plate in the back of the element. Pulled the element out, removed the two wires (they just clip off/on). Reversed the process, attached the wires, slipped back into the holes, replaced the screws, turned power back on. Works perfectly.

Discriptions provided by others in this section made it easy and there is little additional insight I can add. The part was delivered the next day. I don't reply to these requests for comments, as providing what I paid for is the expectation. But, this outfit did a good job.

Received the part the day after ordering. Appreciated the quick service and repair took less than a minute.

pulled out stove and disconected power. removed back panel and disconected wires and pulled element out from front of oven and installed new element.this stove is thirty years old. P.S. part was orderd thursday afternoon and it arrived the very next day. BEST SHIPPING SERVICE EVER and this was the week before christmas.

I had already removed the old hinges by removing the screws/bolts and removing the broken hinges from the back side through the drawer below the oven that I had already removed. Took the new hinges and screwed the two metal screws into the top hole on the new hinges after placing hinge in vise, one screw on each then removed them and placed them to the side. Determined the right tap from my tap set, and then tapped the bottom two holes on the new hinges, one on each. Placed the bolts that came with the new hinges into the holes I had just tapped, screw them in, then I removed them and placed to the side. Took hinges and bolts / screws to the oven, inserted hinges in through the drawer that I had removed up to each side where hinges would come back out to the front of the oven. Placed screws / bolts one at a time through oven door frame into the hinge on the back side, and then threaded them into the hinges and tightened. Replaced oven door onto new hinges and checked for correct operation. Door works like new.

Unscrew and remove old element, install new element.
