JB500G*B1 General Electric Range - Instructions

Open oven door about 3 inches - then holding on the door on either side - pull up and door slides off - put it aside - this is to make it easy for you to work inside oven compartment - at rear of oven where the element goes into the back wall - there are two nuts to remove - I did not have a nut drive so used a pliers (GE could have put slots in the nuts so one would just need a screwdriver) - pull element forward - there are wires attached to the 2 ends of the element - remove with screw driver - element is off - get new part from PartSelect -(and must say pleased with their service) - and reverse above procedure.

Unplugged oven, removed 2 screws that hold the element in place. Pulled element to expose wires. Disconnected wires & removed old element. Reversed removal for installation, plugged in and worked great.

Two screws to remove the element and two screws for the wire connectors and it was done.

First, I turned off the circuit breaker. Then I removed the two screws on the hinged plate that attaches the element to the back wall of the oven. Then pulled out the two wires attached to the element by screws. I detached the old element and reversed the sequence to install the new element. Very simple operation for the average homeowner.

1) turned off breaker to oven
2) removed oven racks
3) removed screws holding old element
4) pulled out element far enough to remove 2 wires attached to old element
5) noted colors, left white, right black
6) attached new element to wires
7) attached new element to oven
8) put back oven racks
9) turn breaker back on
10) test oven
done
EASY!!

order process went very well - easy to do

I first remove the oven door, which is very east on this model. You tilt it a quarter of the way when you open it to use and pull up. It comes off very easy. My second step was pulling on the bake element towards the front. It will expose the wiring connection to the bake element. You will see two wire that are attached by two one screw for each connection. You will need a nut driver to remove. The removal is very simple. Note: Please be sure to turn off your circuit breaker to the oven! ( this is a safety measure,plus it will make you more at ease with the installation. You then can remove the screw nuts & replace with you new bake element. A real piece of cake & very easy even for a average home-owner. Thanks to Part Select for ease of ordering this item. It is a very friendly website! Thanks! Orin

1)Unscrewed the mounting nuts, 2) pulled the heating element out a couple of inches, 3) unscrewed the screws holding the wires in place, 4) removed and tossed the old heating element, 5) placed the new heating element in place, 6) re-screwed the wires to to the element, 7) pushed the heating element back into the wall of the oven, 8) reset the mounting nuts, 9) cleaned up the work area, 10) cranked up the oven and made a pizza. I'm not particularly skilled when it comes to things of this nature, but it was ridiculously easy...

My daughter and I turned off the breaker to the range and removed the old element and replaced it with the new one. My husband came home and took over after we had done almost everything ourselves!!

Removed old element by unbolting two nuts, replaced with new element and two new nuts that were included. Very easy and worked fine.Wish all repair jobs were this easy!Great service with ordering and prompt delivery, too.

It was quite easy-hooked up the wires replaced screws to hold it in place-finished!

Removed bolts from fixing plate, pulled out existing element, unscrewed wire connectors and installed new element in reverse order of removal. This is an old stove from the 60's or 70's so I was glad to get a replacement part and fit it myself so easily.

I first looked at a video PartSelect had done on replacing the bake element in a stove. I disconnected the stove's power plug from the wall, removed the baking shelves, and removed screws holding the cover plate for the old bake element with a nutdriver. I removed the two screws holding the power wires to the bake element and replaced the bake element with the new element purchased from PartSelect. The cover plate was repositioned by using the nutdrive to tighten the cover plate screws. After reinstalling the bake shelves and plugging the oven back in, the repair was finished.

I have some electrical experience. It was simple to remove and install. You just have to pay attention to wiring upon removal and installation.

Removed old element from back of oven with closed wrench and removed wires from element with screwdriver. Took me longer to find screwdriver than to install part. Finding part and ordering it was a snap. Got part in day and half. Great service and price. This is the place for parts and instructions. Will definitly use it again. My wife thinks I'm a genious. Thanks PARTSELECT.
