CWE400 Maytag Wall Oven - Instructions

very easy

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.

I followed the advice givin on the parts select website - it made it totally easy.

After we got the part in the mail my husband put it on and shortened the wires and put new plugs on the ends of the wires and we had to get a new plug put it on and it was fixed.

Just inserted the new heating element

In removing the old element I discovered that one wire had completely separated from the connection to the element. I fished out the wire, clipped off the old, burnt out connector, crimped and reattached a new connector and connected to the new element. This was a very easy job. The hardest part was determining which switch at the electrical panel corresponded to the oven.

The seal is suspended by metal clips at each end, which are inserted into holes in the oven box. The clips on the new seal were a bit too wide to fit into the holes. so I drilled the holes larger, and it worked fine.

Took old insulation off and replaced it with new by hooking new part in its place.

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

Simply unscrew the heating element attachment and remove, then replace with new one. My biggest problem was remembering how the oven door is removed to gain reasonable access to inside rear of oven. After exploring for a few minutes and pulling on oven door , it slide of it's hingrs - and then I remembered. Next problem was my wife making me clean the oven when the old element and oven door was removed.
