I couldn't unscrew the leveling foot because it was rusted and corroded. The bracket holding it was easy to remove so I took the bracket with the corroded foot off and replaced it with the new foot and bracket. Very simple. I made sure I oiled it so it wouldn't rust again.

Quite easy: Removed the two hex head screws with a 1/4 inch nut driver. Gently pulled the old element out of the rear of the range with the connectors still attached. Next I disconnected the connectors from the element and attached a small "paper binder" clip to each of the connector wires to keep the connectors from pulling back through

Very simple repair.. repair guy said if it was the control board to buy a new oven. Searched for the part found it here for under 200$ shipped.
The actual repair consists of 6 screws outside, 4 holding the control board in place, and few wires in a harness. To make swapping easier, took a picture of where wires connected, they ... Read more are color coded.
