Lower oven element not working.
1. Turn off oven. 2. Switch off circuit braker to oven. 3. Remove two screws holding element. 4. Pull element out to expose connectors. 5. Disconnect connectors and remove element. 6. Reverse procedure for installation.
grandson removed the two screws holding in the burned out unit and removed the two wires, installed them into the new unit and put the prongs into place. very easy and certainly very economic. delivery was quick and postage was reasonable. Thank you.
I first tripped the power circuit breaker. Then I unplugged and removed the old element. Removing one screw allowed me to remove and replace the mounting clip. This did result in breaking off a small piece of plastic-like material from the electrical housing to which the clip was attached but did not hinder the replacement of the new clip. I inserted the new burner element. The surface burner is now working fine.
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.
I had to remove the original clips (broken or damaged). This was the hardest part -- the clips were held on by rivets (not screws), so I had to pound/punch them out (using care so not to damage the stove top). Once I punched the rivet out all that remained was a small hole, I just used the small nut and bolt that came with my stablizer clip kit and mounted the new clips. Everything worked out fine.
items in the oven were not baking properly. We discovered the bake elemnent wasn't working and looked defective in one part.
I removed the back panel, unplugged the wires, removed the 2 screws, replaced the element, plugged the wires back in and put the back panel back on. Now that I'm thinking about it, I guess I didn't even need to remove the back panel to replace the element.
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!
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!
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.
