broken light socket

The only tool needed was a nutdriver to remove the lamp socket. I needed my head mounted light to see what I was doing, and everything went smoothly from there. Simple job.

Oven liner melted....needed to replace bottom

Removed the old oven bottom by removing two nuts. Be careful...don't drop the nuts! Removed the heat shield that was attached with four nuts to the old bottom and transferred it to the new oven bottom. Then placed the new bottom in the oven and secured it with the two original nuts. Easy...but don't forget about transferring the heat shield and don't lose the nuts.

The oven door gasket was worn and didn't provide a good seal.

I use needle nose pliers to remove the old gasket tabs and clean the area with a scouring pad. Then I just lined the gasket up with the holes on the door and pushed the holding tab into the holds.Very easy and simple job.

needed to unstall "anti tilt" bracket on back of electric range to be code compliant for property..

Turned off circuit breaker, Then pulled out range, straight out and away from wall and cabinets. Layed braket on flooring and moved stove back in to make certain it aligned with range rear stands. Moved range back out, marked holes in braket, screwed in screws to anchor bracket. Pushed range back into placed against wall. Tried to |"tilt" range by pulling down on door after opened - range was held in place sre
