So, he pulled the element out as far as he safely could, replaced it with the new one. No problem! As I said, the only thing that made it difficult w

First I unplugged the stove. Then I removed the two screws inside the oven to remove the heating element. For safety purposes I removed the back panel from the stove also to get a complete view of what I was getting into. That was just 5 more screws and the panel came off and exposed what the heating element was plugged into. Very easy

So easy. Took extra time so the wife would think it was harder. Just read the other reviews for instructions. Didn't have an issue with the wires pulling back into the oven though I did have my "clips" ready.
