I ordered to correct part from PartSelect with relative ease given I know nothing about oven repair. What's even more amazing, my wife who is not mechanically-minded, took the element home and replaced the broken one in 15 minutes with nothing but a pair of pliers. We live 22 miles from town so a repairman would have cost over $100 just to show up. Total cost = $36!
With the oven unplugged, I removed the protective plate from the back of the oven, and then I unplugged the old element from the contacts. There were two screws holding in the element inside the oven- after unscrewing these, the old element slid right in. After reconnecting everything and plugging the oven back in, all was good. Pretty simple.
Had to replace the baking element, which had burnt up.
Removed the cover plate, pulled the element out, removed the screws holding the wires in place, but then I had to enlarge the screw holes on the new element in order to fit the screws into the new element. Took a while with an awl to enlarge ther two holes. Connected the new element, pushed it back in and replaced the cover plate. Worked great.
First i removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires. Very simple and easly job.
First, used the nutdriver to remove the two screws that hold the element. Then pulled out the element 4 inches. Disconnected the two wires from the old element and discarded it. Connected the wires to the new element and tightened them a bit by squeezing with pliers (not too tight, but just enough so they won't disconnect easily). Pushed the wires back through the insulation and screwed the two nuts back in place, making adjustments so that the element is level.
I had a great experience with part select. The part was easy to find and arrive within two days in perfect conditions. Everything went smoothly with the repair and the element is working very well.
The control knob stem broke off when I moved the stove.
I located and removed 2 sets of hex-head screws under the front lip of the cooktop, then lifted the entire cooktop to access the burner controls. Removed the wires and taped them, and took out the old control after removing 2 phillips head screws. Installed replacement part easily. Only tricky part is that the various shaft adapters don't quite work with my knob. I'll fix it completely with a bit of epoxy and the adapters they sent.
I don't know, my husband did it. But he said it was easy and he used a nut driver and flathead screwdriver :) PS...partsselect saved us money and saved the stove from the landfill!
First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and unscrewed the the two screws that connected the wires and element together. I then tried to connect the new element to the wires, but found that the screw holes were smaller than the original holes in the old element and the original screws wouldn't fit. No problem, I then got a cordless drill and found a drill bit a little bigger than the holes, I held the element connector with pliers and made the screw hole a little bigger, same with the other connector. I screwed the screws into the connectors with a socket wrench and then screwed the element back into the holes in the oven, then turned on the oven and it works as good as new.
I first read the repair stories on this website. I turned off the power to the range in the power box. I removed the 2 screws, pulled out the old heat element a little, then disconnected the wires from the connectors. I just reversed the steps to put the new one in and viola. Really simple. Parts came really fast too. At first I ordered the wrong part b/c I didn't look up the part using the model number, I just went by t he picture and the manf. name. I returned that and got refunded promptly, so make sure you order by model number b/c parts are made different for each appliance model.
Disconnect power to range, remove fan cover (4 screws). Remove old element (2 screws). Pull off wires from old element. Discard old element, clean bottom of oven. Slip wires on terminals of new element. Install new element,and fan cover. Reconnect power.
Used a nut driver and removed to studs and pulled the old element out and disconnected the two wires. Then connected the new element and put the studs back. It was that easy. Great website and it only took 5 minutes to order the part and received it on time. Plus my wife was trying to cook thanksgiving dinner. Thanks
The heating element just stared sparking and then went out.
I ordered it on line and it was easy to fix, I had it done before my husband came home from work. I just undid the old one and pushed the new one on. I have to stay ordering from here was alot cheapier
My Husband did the repair. It took him longer to prepare the appliance than it did to perform the actual replacement of the bake element! We LOVE the service and the selection found at PartSelect!! Our part arrived within 24 hours!We've recommended you to all our friends and co-workers. Bravo! Thank you again.
