Both heating elements not working
Removed racks from oven. Each element had two screws, used socket wrench for all, gently pulled out element to exposé wiring removed wires with same socket. Once element out of oven, reattached wires to new element, reset element to back of oven and with the two screws attached back. Did the same process for top element only exception was
... Read more a bracket holding top element from leaning down. It had two screws all the same size as element screws. Once all back in place turned on breaker to check each element.
Got new part! Unplug range!!! Remove oven door by opening and lifting up at the same time, set aside. Remove two screws with a nutdriver or screwdriver. Pull on element far enough to unhook wires and throw away old element and install the wires on the new element and reinstall!!

Bake element began to spark and short out when I tried to use it.
When the part arrived, I used the diagram provided by the website to see what really needed to be done. Keep in mind, if you're doing it correctly and disconnect the range from the power source, it's going to be dark inside the oven. Get a good flashlight or electric lantern. There are two screws holding the element in. Mine were 8MM hex
... Read more-head screws, but be prepared for anything. I removed the with a socket attachment/adapter to my cordless drill/screwdriver, and the part came right out. Some insulation will come as well - don't panic. Installation is similar, just in reverse order. Pay attention to the feet on the element. Make certain they are down. Don't lean on them when you think you're finished and discover that you installed it upside down like someone I know, and have to pull it out to correct this.

Element got hot spot
Easiest thing I've done. Shut off breaker. Unplug range. Pull out from wall (because this is a good time to remove the back, clean under and around the unit, check out the insulation and electrical contacts....or skip it, whatever). Open oven. Remove door (while ajar, pull up). Remove racks. Unscrew mounting plate from back interior wall.
... Read more Set screws aside. Gently pull element forward until the leads and wires come through the insulation. Remove any strands of insulation that stuck to the leads and connectors. Unscrew leads. Keep left wire to the left and right wire to the right. DO NOT CROSS. Set screws aside. Discard old element. (This is a good time to clean your oven, if you haven't in a while.) If you cleaned oven, wait until dry. Position new element, feet down, in bottom of oven. Position left wire on left connector. Screw tightly BUT DO NOT BEND LEAD. IF YOU BEND IT, THEN DO NOT BEND IT BACK. CALL A PROFESSIONAL. Position right wire on right connector. Screw tightly BUT DO NOT BEND. IF YOU BEND IT, THEN DO NOT BEND IT BACK. CALL A PROFESSIONAL. Do not leave screws loose. Connection must be tight. Fire hazard, otherwise. If you bent nothing, then gently push element back through insulation until mounting plate is flush. Screw into position. Replace racks. Replace door. If you decide to check insulation and other leads, now is the time. I checked mine and it's a good thing I did.... Unscrew back plate of oven, keeping screws in order. Remove plate. Check that your new element and insulation aren't bunched up or otherwise in a hazardous state. You may notice burned or greasy insulation. You may see burned leads on light receptacle and broil element. If you do, then replace them, too. When finished with everything, replace back plate. Put range back into position, ensuring level and plumb. Plug in. Turn on breaker. Pat yourself on the back. You just saved $100-$250, depending on where you live.

Bake element failed
Took out old one and replaced with new one. The only problem I had was my arms were not quite long enough. I had to climb into the oven to get to the electrical connection.

While using my oven a fire suddenly started--big fire (about scared me to death) on the heating element. Turned off the oven, threw salt on fire. Now that's cooled and I'm ready to clean it up, I find that the heating element had burned completely through. Before I pay for a new element, how likely is it that there is more electrical/internal damage? Or is it likely just in need of a new element? Thank you.
For model number J BP23G V2WH
Hi Paula, Thank you for the question. In most cases the element will just need to be replaced. In rare cases the control board has shorted but replacing the element shoudl fix the issue. Hope this helps!

Do you recommend a repairperson
Hello Norma, thank you for your question. This repair is really quite easy even for a novice! You shouldn't need a repair person. Here are the instructions: First unplug the unit or flip the breaker so the power is removed from the appliance. Remove the 2 screws that hold the bake element in place. Then pull the element out enough to see the wires and wire connectors and disconnected the two wires. Hold the wires in place so they don't get pulled back into the insulation of the unit. Reconnect the two wires to the new element and push it back in place and install the unit again with the 2 screws. Plug the unit back in, or flip the breaker and the unit should heat as it should! I hope this helps!
