Lower heating element was out.
3 of 4 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Brook from Flora, IN
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Nutdriver
Open the oven door and removed a metal screw from each side of the element on the rear wall of the oven. Pull each side of the element out about 2-3 inches and you should see the terminal fitting with a spade type connector. Remove the connector from each side and discard the old element. Place the connectors on your new element and push it through the openings that the old element came out of. Replace each of the metal screws and you are done.

Burner rings did not fit.

  • JOANNE from IMPERIAL, PA
  • Very Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
The replacement rings were so easy to install, and the little clip to hold them in place is really smart. Made my old range look really nice again. I thought the cost for the four rings was a bit high but they were well worth it. Thank You

Baking element burnt out and broke in my hand.

  • David from Tallapoosa, GA
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Nutdriver
First I cut the breaker to the oven. Then pulled racks out of oven. Then used my nut driver to take the two screws of the back mounts. I then pulled the broken part out and installed the new one. I was not sure at all about doing this until I read some of your other testemonies, but after that, I became an oven repairman. The very next da y after instalation, my wife cooked me a ham and a pan of cornbread! Thanks for the fast service, y'all got me back to eating my wifes homemade dinners within three days of ordering my part. There is no way to thank you for that, but here is a very large THANK YOU! I will definitely be back(hopefully not soon!) when I need other appliance parts.

Slide the shrink wrap onto each wire and Twist each old with each new wire using the wire nuts and slide the shrink wrap Over each. Using a hair dryer, heat gun, or open flame carefully shrink the wrap. Secure the terminal back in place on the range.

  • Monty from WILKESBORO, NC
  • Really Easy
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Nutdriver, Pliers
Took out bottom drawer and unplugged power cord, slid unit out to reach back panel,removed front door( 2 Phillips screws) making it easier to reach back of oven, removed screws inside of oven holding element in place, took plate off rear and removed the spade connectors with needle nose pliers. Slid new element into oven and replaced scr ews inside of oven. Connected the two spade wires on the back and replaced rear panel. Slid unit back in place and plugged the 220v power cord back in. Straightforward and very simple! It took 3 times longer to clean the oven while it was disconnected than it did to replace the element.!

Two burners did not heat
2 of 2 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Conan from Moline, IL
  • Easy
  • 30 - 60 mins
Pretty easy installation; you lift the top plate up and snip the wires maybe four inches away from the burner. Leave more wire than you think you need; once you get into it you'll realize you need more wire length than you think.

Then strip the remaining ends, twist them together with the provided caps, and use the heat shrink to hold it together. Remove the old terminal, replace it with the new ones, and you're good to go!

Remember to check that the wires are tight in the cap before heat shrinking, though. I had to get more shrink wrap in order to finish.

in order to install the new burner pans, my husband used a screwdriver to push back on the metal clasp. this allows the notch on the drippan to go into the groove on the stove.

Your website is great...easy and it literally took me no mote than 5 minutes to find what I needed and order...and received it VERY quickly.
