Product Description

BROIL ELEMENT Specifications

This broil element is designed for wall ovens and plays a critical role in achieving high-temperature cooking during broil cycles. Positioned at the top of the oven cavity, it delivers intense, direct heat for broiling meats, vegetables, and other dishes. A malfunctioning element may result in the oven failing to reach proper broil temperatures, uneven cooking, or complete loss of broil function. Constructed from heat-resistant materials for durability and performance, this replacement part restores optimal cooking capability. Before installation, always disconnect power to the appliance and verify compatibility with your specific oven model.

I am female, and we know nothing about fixing stuff right?? ?? Even I was able to figure this one out with a little help over the phone, and a tool I borrowed from Dad. Took 30 minutes maybe.

When I took out the baking element, the wires went up inside because they were so short, I got a hold of one of them but couldn't get a hold of the other.
Had to pull out the refrigerator and put it in the dining room in order to pull out the stove to be able to get to the back of it. Had to take off the back of the stove to get to the wiring for the baking element, so at that point I replaced the broil element at the same time. Not a easy job at all.

Broiler burnt out.
Removed screws using nut driver. Pulled element way forward until wires came through. Pondered how to detach burned out element from wires. Chickened out, call neighbor who grasped things firmly with two hands and pulled. Old element came loose. Popped in new element. Cursed the screws that wouldn't align with holes to support element; finally did it. Screwed element plate in place. Put oven door back on, plugged it in and turned it on hoping that we hadn't reversed the wires. Job accomplished.

Broiler element was burned out
After turning the power off to the range, it was as simple as removing the screws for the broiler itself and the bracket and plugging in the new element. Yes, it was that easy.

The broiler element wouldn't work.
After I ordered a new element unit, I read the "do it yourself" review on the page. I took the back off of the range and found the broken wire. I found that I had the same problem with the wiring, and that maybe the element was not the problem. I went to Lowe's and purchased a female spade connector, because no one would sell me one through the parts department. All I did was cut off the wire at the end of the burned section, stripped back about 1/2 inch of the wire and put on the new spade connector. I took off the origonal connector/crimp, and slipped on the new one. (You do have to make sure that the wiring doesn't touch the range back) The element was not the problem, so the origonal one still works fine. I may keep the element I ordered, just to have it if this one goes out. I didn't even need to remove the screws from the element inside the oven. It can all be done from the back of the range.
