A burned lower oven element.
We unplugged the range. My husband removed the burned element and installed the new element. There was no problem either way. The worst part was getting up and down from the floor. He is 87 years old and doesn't bend like he did 20 years ago. Now if someone would clean the oven for me, it would be great.

Stove wouldn't bake
Our son unplugged the stove, took a socket fitting the nuts and pulled the old bake element out. He then put the new one in plugging up the wires and screwing the nuts back in. Plugged in stove and works perfect!

The bake element broke, so it quit working.
This oven is really weird and is approximately 50 years old. We would have had to do a significant renovation to get another stove/oven into the space. I had to use a drill to remove the old element and had to drill new holes to screw in the new element. I measured the old element and was lucky to find one that was compatible. Thanks!

Burn-Out Baking Element
Unpacked new part , shut off electric breaker to range. Removed both screws that held element to oven wall. Pulled out old element so I could loosen to screws that held wires to element. Loosened these, got new element attached wires to new element pushed back in to oven wall and put both screws back in to hold new element against oven wall. Put cooking racks back in , closed oven door. Turned power back on then tested oven and new element worked great. This was a very easy fix for me and would be for a lot of people mr. Green
