surface element not working
Ordered new element from PartSelect. It arrived shortly. It did not match the original. Guy at appliance store explained how I could connect the wires on the new one. It still did not fix the problem. A repair man tried for 2.5 hours to fix it with no success. Now I will return the replacement element in the return envelope provided.

The triple burner would not heat
Took the top and bottom plates off from the back of the stove. Removed the knob from the front, unscrewed the two screws holding it in. Then from the back side I unplugged the two wiring harnesses from the old switch, inserted the new one, plugged the harnesses back in and then put the screws back in the front to hold the new knob thing. Put knob back on, put the two plates baxk.on the back, plugged the stove back.in and turned the burner on. Success. I saved over $240 by doing this myself

Terminal block arc'ed because a wire had become loose.
Ordered and received the terminal block. Installed it along with a new 220V power cord and the appropriate insulator . Ensured the terminals were tight with a nut driver. Reinstalled cover. Then, using the control panel, I did a function check on all the heating elements, clock, oven light, to satisfy all operational requirements. All checked good! And, I was relieved that the control panel had not been shorted out as the terminal block was due to a loose connection. Easy fix.
