Repaired Oven Range Light Bulb
The bulb has a plastic clear cover. That cover can just be carefully removed using a screwdriver. It's held in by a metal bracket. After you remove the cover. You'll just need to replace the bulb and then re-install the cover and bracket.
my original part arrived and it did not fit. When I called to explain the problem I was told it was the wrong part. The big problem is... Frigidaire calls the receptacle a terminal block kit as well as a terminal block kit which is a totally different part. I tried to explain that to several different folks I spoke to at your company as well as Frigidaire but I'm not sure if I got that point across. Take a look at part # 530 393 5058 and part # 530 440 9888 and you will see that they both mention terminal block kit. Hopefully the part I am getting from Frigidaire is an OEM part and will fit.
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. Must say I was dreading going to some parts house that we have in our town in bad area, and searching on dusty shelves for what I needed...am so glad I found you!!
Plugged the new one in and it worked. I did search out Frigidaire parts and there are other types tha may or may not work. Calrod burners are not all that unusual. I went with the real thing.
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.
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.
My element caught on fire. After it cooled it snapped.
I unplugged the stove and used a flashlight for light. I tried a phillips head, but it was too big. I then got a set of pliers and unscrewed the two screws an pulled out the element. I removed the 2 electrical plugs from the ends of the element and attached the new ones. They went on from the top where as the old ones slid from the side. after pushing the element back in i screwed the screws back in and the backings were a tad large so I bent them up and presto it was fixed!
Pulled stove out, removed screws that hold the element in place. Then pulled element out a few inches, diconnected the two wires. I connected the wires to the new element and put everything back to right. It was quick and easy.
Loosened the two nuts that hold the element in place. Gently pulled the old elementr forward to expose connections. Disconnected the old element and attached the new element. Slipped the new attached element through the holes being carful not to disturb the insulation. Once the element was in the correct position with the tabs against the back wall of the oven replaced the two nuts and the job was complete. The whole job took approx. 5 minutes. It was very, very easy.
Oven Baking Element Burned Through Causing It to Break Into Two Pieces
First my husband removed the two screws that held the heating element into place. I had tried it with pliers which didn't work well. But with the proper socket the screws came loose easily. He pulled the heating element out a few inches and detached the wires. He then slipped the wire over the new heating element and screwed the new element into place. Now we can bake again. Very easy and we received the part quickly.
Oven is an in the wall unit. Normally it is an unplug and plug in. The old one had a melted connector, so the connector had to be cut off and replaced as well. Be sure to turn off the electricity at the braker to be safe, first.
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!
