REP302CV1 Kelvinator Range - Instructions

This range is probably 30+ years old. Still works great. Just needed to replace the Drip Bowls.

Cut the old block off tied new wires to hot wires . That easy!

Turn off power, remove heat coil assembly and drip pan. Unscrew the terminal assembly from the range top. Cut back 3 inches on each terminal wire and strip insulation 3/8 inch. Terminal assembly should be with the short side of the black block (from the side securement hubs) facing toward the coil stems. 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.

Really easy--unscrew screws, pull element out, unclip wire connection. Re-clip to new burner, put back in--done. Saved a $100 tech trip PLUS double mark up on part!

Unscrew the old one and unplug the wire leads. Then plug in the new one and bolt back up.

I just removed two screws. Pulled the element out, unhooked the wires. plugged the wires into the new element screwed it in and was done

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, replaced witht he new element

Removed the racks first. Then removed the two screws that held the element in place.
I then pulled the element out about three inches
exposing the connecting wires.Each wire has a female slide type connector just disconect each one and then connected the new element .
Attach new element by reptacing the two screws.

I watched my husband do this repair so if it happens again I can do it myself. He removed the screws holding the element in place, unplugged the element, plugged the new element in and replaced the screws. I am so glad I found your site. The posted pictures and measurements made finding the exact part a breeze and the element arrived in a couple of days. We saved a bundle!! Thanks.

pulled the element out and found it burn the connectins on one side. so i had to pull the stove and open the back to get to wiring. put a new connecter on. then connected the new element. closed the back.

If I didn't need my oven ASAP, I would not even have attempted to do this repair before my husband came home. But he wasn't going to be home for hours, and I needed it now!
First, I took off the back panel. Slid off the wire connectors. Then moved to the inside of the oven and unscrewed the two screws that secure the element to the oven, and pulled the old one out. Put the new one in and reconnected the wires from the back, and replaced the back panel.
That was it! It worked great!! Very simple.
I called my husband immediately to tell him of my great accomplishment!! I was so proud of myself!

Thanks,
Vicki

the repair itself went smoothly. the clips that the new part connected to were old and slack. the clip came undone and had to pull the stove out to get to part from the back. i squeezed the clip together to make it stay on the new part and it held. the oven is heating well now.

I turned off the circuit breaker to the range. Next I removed the two screws that fastened the element to the rear of the oven. Then I pulled the element out far enough to be able to reach the spade clips and disconnected the element. I connected the replacement element to the clips and fastened it to the rear of the oven with the two screws. I turned the circuit braker on and the element functioned properly.

Removed the old element by sliding the wires
attached to it. Unscrew 2 screws, slide the
new one to the wirings and put the 2 screws back.
It works. Praise the Lord.

Really easy process. First I unplugged the oven for safety then I proceeded to remove the 2 screws that were holding the old element in place. Next I removed the old element then installed the new one. After installing the two screws I connect the oven back to its power source and BANG!............. It works like a charm

I give it a A+ installation
