JB900KK6CC General Electric Range - Instructions

Followed the instructions that were sent to me by E-Mail.

a) Turn off 240v ckt brkr to the oven p b) In the Rear -Remove the 6 hex screws holding the protective covering c) Remove the two push-on terminals p d) In front, open door to range and remove the two screws holding the faulty bake element p e) Remove faulty bake element and replace with new one f) Replace all screws p

Remove burnt coil and replaced with new coil

Turned circuit breaker off to the range, removed both oven shelves. Removed both screws securing bake element to rear wall of oven with nut driver and pulled element carefully away from mounting location taking care to ensure that the attachment wires remained connected. From instructions previously read online, the wires do not have a lot of slack and if not careful, once disconnected, they may spring back into the insulation and require some fishing around or even having to pull out range and sort out the wires from the back side. Since the wires are attached to the element with push on terminals, I used locking pliers to slide the terminal off an ensure that I had a firm hold on the terminal such that I would not lose the wire end into the insulation, that was a helpful hint. Once the old element was removed it would have been a simple reversal of the process to install the new element, if my wife hadn't looked at the progress and decided that I had to give a thorough scrubbing to a "self-cleaning" oven, that took the majority of the 15-minute time. One side comment: This site saved me a lot of time by reading other people's experience and by a easy order process with prompt delivery.

1. Turned Off Range Circuit Breaker. 2. Take Door Off of Range. 3. Removed Both Racks. 4. Removed Both Screws on rear of oven. 5. Pulled stove all the way out. 6. Removed 5 Screws on the Rear Electrical Connection Cover Panel. 6 Remove 2 Clips from Bake Element. 7. Remove burnt Bake Element. Install in Reverse Order.

Pulled oven out from the wall and removed just the center section of the back that allows you to see the wires and not allow them to pull through. Took the two screws out from the inside of the oven that held the bake unit in place and after unhooking the wires from the back pulled the old bake unit out through the oven and inserted the new unit and fastened in place with the two screws. Then refasten the wire connections in the back of the oven and replace the rear panel. When removing the old burner from the inside lift it up and pull out. Previous ovens I had owned just plugged in and removed from the inside. This model is fastened. Other comments were helpful to me too.

Step 1. Turn off the breaker to the range. Step 2. Pull the range out from the wall. Many of the installation instructions recommend accessing the element from the front only and to use clips to keep the wires from popping back into the insulation. My recommendation is to just pull the range out and take off the back cover. This is much easier than worrying about losing the wires. The connectors will be easy to access from the rear. You know you need to clean behind your range anyways. Step 3. Remove the back cover of the range. Step 4. Disconnect the two wires that are attached to the lower element. Step 5. From inside the oven remove the two screws holding the element and remove the element. Step 6. Insert the new element and reinstall the two screws to secure it. Step 7. From the back of the range reconnect the two wires to the element. Step 8. Reinstall the back cover. Step 9. Turn the breaker back on. Step 10. Test the new element.

Disconnect the range from the mains. Open the door. Remove the single screw holding the temperature sensor - this is located on the back wall on center and is screwed to the broiler mounting plate. Remove the four screws holding the boiler element and allow it to hang down on the wire; this exposes a space to feed the wire through later. Now move to the back of the range and remove the six screws that hold the central cover plate. Now push the insulation to up out of the way and you can disconnect the temperature sensor, pull it out through front, insert the new one and connect it. Reassemble in the reverse order. Mine worked perfectly!

I took a picture of the setup and damage . I then disconnected the burnt wires and replaced the wires . Then I installed the new terminal block and connected the wires to the proper positions. The reason for the failure was that the delivery people didn't tighten the cord when they installed the stove . I would check the connections periodically as to avoid another situation like this .

Unplugged from wall outlet, then opened oven front door. Reached in and removed two screws. Pulled oven sensor threw and detached electrical connector from old sensor. Plugged in new oven sensor and reversed removal procedure. No more Flashing F2 and oven temperature came to ready. Very easy.

My husband pulled out the bake element with no thought about the connection wires. They totally disappeared. He couldn't find them anywhere. Of course, he started this little project at 6:00 PM, I said forget it, I need to use the stove for dinner. The next day I attempted to find the wires & couldn't. I pulled the stove out, took off the panel on the back, found the wires, pushed them through & used clothespins to hold them in place. I put the new element in, attached it loosely so I could put the insulation back in, used a socket wrench(if that's what it is called)tightened it up, went behind the stove & did a good cleaning, put the panel back on with the same socket wrench, pushed the stove back, turned the electric back on, turned on the oven & it worked perfectly. I called my husband & he said "don't turn the oven on until I check what you have done to make sure it is right". I said "it is already on & is working just fine, thank you!" If I would have done this myself in the first place, I would have said easy, 30 minutes(even if I had to pull the stove out)& it sure beats paying for a GE service repairman to do the job, which is what my husband originally wanted to do. I forgot to mention, make sure you turn the circuit breaker off before you start. I used directions that I found on your site from other customers that installed the same bake element & it was easy. They were such a big help. I was also very happy with PartSelect & how quickly I received my order. Sorry to write a book, but I thought that someone might get a laugh out of this story!

We pulled the stove out, unplugged it, unscrewed the old element and screwed the new one in.

Extremely easy, two screws pull connection inward to oven grasp push pin pull disconnect (don't let go of oven end or it will recede into appliance) push pin new connection on two connections. Remount with two screws and job was done! And yes a woman repaired her own oven very easy!

Ordered the racks then put them in when they arrived.Correct parts got here when Pat Select said they' be here.
