The bake element for this model is not inside the oven. Where is the access for this hidden bake element? I'm assuming it's in the back. Can you explain how to access and change the element. Please do not provide a link to the same video - it's not applicable to this model. Thank you.
For model number KESS907SSS04
Hi Greg, Thank you for the question. For the hidden element, you will need to pull the appliance out from the wall to access it from the back. Hope this helps!

Do you have instructions on installation of part w10207398 for the model kdss907sss05 ?
For model number KDSS907SSS05
Hello Jimmy, Thank you for the question. You will need to pull the appliance out from the wall to access the panel on the back of the appliance. Once the panel is removed you will need to move the insulation away and bend down a tin panel that covers the back of the element. Remove the wire connectors and element and reverse the steps to reinstall. Hope this helps!

I am trying to replace the bottom hidden bake element on my KitchenAid oven and cannot for the life of me figure out how i am suppose to get it out. I have pull a few covers off the back and found the 2 element prongs sticking out the back and disconnected the wires. I move some of the insulation out of the way exposing 2 screws apparently holding it in. But now it will not come out any further and i am wondering if it is suppose to come out the front or the rear of the oven somehow. The video you keep listing to help people does not apply to this particular model.

Is there a video available to replace the bake element for this model ?
For model number Kesk901sss01
Hello, Thank you for your question. You will want to first remove the screws from the back of the element where the bracket is, and then you should be able to just pull it out. We hope this helps.

Corroded bake element
Pull it away from the wall and take everything off the back. Unscrew the element cover, cut through the insulation and remove the part. Not easy, watch for sharp sheet metal edges

The existing bake element was charred and in pieces so could not be pulled out. We destructively disassembled the range and pulled out the pieces along with the melted insulation. The wall behind was also scorched.
