JUST PLUG IN INTO THE OUTLET ON THE STOVE
THIS WAS A STOVE TOP BURNER ELEMENT ///
THE OLD ONE JUST FELT APART AND A NEW ONE WAS\NEEDED. i USED THE PHONE # GIVEN INSTEAD OF USING MY
COMPUTER ... AND THAT WAS A VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE
TALKING TO A LIVE PERSON WHO WAS VERY PLEASANT
AND HELPFUL. i WISH i'D WRITTEN DOWN HER NAME.
NOTHING LIKE "LIVE COMMUNICATIONS" i CAME FROM
THE DEPRESSION ERA... WHEN PEOPLE STILL TALKED TO
ONE ANOTHER RATHER THAN HAVING THEIR HEADS BPWED
DOWN TO THE CELL PHONES! O WELL..THAT'S PROGRESS!

Three of four electric coils won't turn on
I took out the coils manually by pulling them out with slight pressure. Then I lift the hood by first unscrewing the four screws. I have never done anything like this before just intuitive sense to locate the screws that needed to be loosened. Afterwards I remember placing something underneath like a piece of 2x4 wood block to act as support to hold the hood open so I can work on the coils. The parts I got are exactly the same as those I am replacing so I just copied the connection and voila my electric range is working like new. Well of course before I touched anything, I made sure I turned off the main switch and that nobody switches it back on without my knowledge. Thanks for providing the parts, I just saved myself from buying a $600 electric range.
