Burned out element
First, turn off the power. Remove the two retaining screws, pull out the broken element far enough to unscrew the connectors, remove the element, reconnect the new element, screw it back in, turn the power back on. Yes, it is that easy! Took me all of five minutes. Took longer to find my tools!
Element was burnt in two pieces Sparks were flying
unscrew two screws pull the old element out put in new one and screw back in . We had to wire it direct because our oven had quick connect connectors and this part did not. But it was no big deal and didn't take any time to fix.
Oven took a very long time to get to the right temperature. Noticed on one arm of the element that there was corrosion .
First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place againts the oven wall. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires. These wires were screwed into the element so it was important to order the correct screw-in type replacement element. I pushed the wires back into place and screwed in the plate that holds the element against the oven wall. It was very quick and easy.
I simply removed the 2 mounting screws, pulled the element out a few inches, disconnected the 2 screws holding the wires to the terminals and reversed the order for assembly.
REMEMBER to turn off the breaker at the panel because the wires are still hot even though the oven control itself is off (trust me!!!).
Excellent service and fast delivery from partselect.com........ I'd gladly deal with them again.
The hardest part of this entire repair was locating the right socket and explaining why/how I burned my fingers (yes I had to touch the element to prove to myself it was that easy to fix and worked). 4 screws, 1 replacement part 5 minutes no cussing. This was the easiest repair I have ever done.
Removed screws that hold element in place. Disconnected the two electrical leads. Put the new element in place, hooked up the two leads and installed the the screws that hold the element in place.
A hole blew out in the heating element of my 39 yo wall oven
Because of the age of the oven it took a little time to loosen the screws that held the element in. Once the screws were removed it was a matter of pulling the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires, then it was a matter of repeating the steps in reverse. Very quick and easy
First I shut off the range breaker in the main electrical panel. I slid the oven door off for easy access to the back of the oven. I loosened the two hex head screws holding the element to the oven wall. I pulled the element forward to reveal the two hex head screws holding the wires to the element and removed the old element. I attached the wires to the new element with the hex head screws, fastened the element to the oven wall, slid the oven door back on, and flipped on the breaker. I gathered up my tools and left the apartment. It took me longer to get to the apartment and back than it did to do the repair. PartSelect.com got the part to me within two days of my order, and for six dollars in shipping that's great.. PartSelect.com has been added to my internet bookmark.
This was quite an easy fix once I got the correct part. It was my own fault for ordering what I thought went with my oven. I didn't expect to be able to even find a new heating element because the stove is almost 40 years old. Except for that one part it works just fine. It took me about 20 minutes to do the repair. I unplugged the stove, unscrewed the 2 screws holding the element to the back of the stove, pulled it out far enough to unscrew the 2 screws attached to the wires, screwed the new part to the wires, screwed the whole unit back onto the back of the stove and plugged it back in. It works great. Moving the stove away from the wall was more difficult than installing the new part. It couldn't have been easier and it was a lot less expensive than buying a new stove. Also, the customer service people I spoke to were very friendly and helpful and there was no problem returning the incorrect part. I would recommend this company to anyone who asks.
First turned off the circuit that controlled the power to the Stove/Oven. Then I removed the screws that hold the element in place. I pulled the element out a few inches and disconnected the wires. I attached the wires for the new element. I replaced the screws. I turned on the circuit.
removed the old heating element which had about two screws and two connecting wires and replaced it with the new one. I twas so fast and easy. I thought I was going to need a new Oven!!!!!Thank goodness for your website!!!!!
The repair was pretty easy. I unplugged the stove and took the 2 screws out that secured the element into the back of the stove. I then used a pair of needle nosed pliers to pull the wires off the element that wasn't working and then attached the wires to the new element. I then put the screws back in place securing the element to the stove and it was done. It took me about 5 mintues and the element worked immediately.
The bake element was completely missing from the stove. There were two wires sticking out of the back of the oven, one with a terminal on the end and the other with the insulation still on and no bare wire showing/ The right side mounting screw was there..
The left mounting screw hole on the oven had been drilled out oversized, so I drilled another hole in the mounting plate above the original., after attaching the element with a single screw.
I removed the one screw, removed the bake element and pulled the electrical wire without the terminal end. Next, I put a terminal on the wire and attached the wires to the element. Finally I installed the element with the two screw into the rear of the oven.
Unfortunately the element didn't work, so my next step is to trace the wiring and determine if a switch or thermostat might be faulty. I have checked the continuity of the wires from the bake element to the thermostat.
