bad bake element
Turned the power off. Loosened two screws to take the element out. Loosened two more srews to disconnect the element itself from the power. This job was easy squeezy. Within 15 minutes flat I was back on the couch watching old Seinfeld reruns. Two thumbs up for the peeps at Part Select.

original bottom heating element melted down into wall
Removed the element and put in a new one. Screw mounted interface to 230 mains involved removing two screws in oven wall and two connecting the main wires. Screws were provided with element. Effortless replacement saved an expensive house call and/or oven replacement. Oven is 44 years old and Parts Select had an original replacement part here in 4 days at new years. Part was only $18.45. Parts Select rocks!

Very low oven heat
Ordered new element (super-easy to select the right one at this site!). Turned off stove breakers. Removed two screws holding mounting hinge plate with nutdriver. Detached wires with regular screwdriver. Attached wires to new element lugs with screwdriver, using furnished new screws. Reinstalled element hinged mounting plate with screws and nutdriver. Only difficulty is 1) working bent over inside the oven because the wires are short, and 2) wire screws are regular, not Philips, with shallow slots so screwdriver slips out frequently.

Lower heating element burned out
I replaced the element. The new part arrived within 48 hours of being ordered. It worked. The part that sticks out the back of the oven with the connections was a little shorter on the new element which made it more difficult to put the wires on but it was not too difficult.

Replacing bake element
Undid two screws to pull the element out, and another two to unhook it from the wires. Reverse procedure with the new element and baked some muffins. The hardest part about this repair was getting the part. I typo'd my shipping address and had to knock on a neighbor's door!

oven not heating
Delivery of the replacement element was quick.Two days after I ordered. My husband replaced it and said it was easy. He just had to unscrew the old element and disconnect the terminals on the back.I thought I was going to have to buy a new stove,just because my oven element wasn't working. Many thanks!
