Replaced bake element
Needed to drill two new holes for fastening the element to the oven wall. Change in design. Enlarged the holes in the spade connections since I was unable to find smaller bolts than 4-40. I would suggest to make the holes in the spade connections larger. The change out was not a problem.
ordered part came in noticed i had to make ajustments to new heating element took socket set and unscrewed four screws put a retainer on the wires that came out of the wall to make sure they didn't go back into the wall and would be unretrieveable. installed new screws and cover plate and turned on the oven all done works perfectly.
When i finally got the right part.It only took few minutes to screw in and it worked perfectly.Customer support was very helpful in finding the correct part.thanks
I thought because the broiler was off that I could remove the element with not problem. As I was pulling the element out, it sparked, melting something in the back I couldn't see at the time. I immediately went to the breaker box and turned the power to the oven off. After I found the website online I was very gratified to see how easy it was to identify the element I needed and order it. I removed the old element. One of the wires from the element slipped through the hole in the back of the oven. To get at it I had to unscrew the four screws around the outside edge of the oven and pull the whole oven out. I had a table handy that I pulled up next to the oven and set it on without disconnecting the main wiring. After getting the oven out I removed the six or so screws on the coverplate and easily found the loose wire. I pushed the wire back through the hole in the back of the oven and made sure it would not fall back into the hole. I put the back plate on with all its screws; pushed the oven back into its hole and screwed the four screws in around the edge that hold the oven in. Then I attatched the broiler element to the spade connectors and screwed it back in place. I turned the breaker switch back on and tested it. It works.
After turning off power, I removed the two screws and pulled the element and wires out, removed the wires and then attached them to the new element and replaced the screws. However, this did NOT correct the problem. The broiler did not work until I tried several times turning it on and off. It then worked once but then did not. It worked once more after several tries. I then called a repairman suspecting the control board. He confirmed this and tested the old element which was in good working order after all. A new board has been ordered.
I simply removed the two screws but the back of the element holding it in place and pulled the element out far enough to clearly see the wiring. (TURN OFF THE ELECTRICTY TO THE OVEN). Gently pull the snap connectors off the element leads and snap them on the replacement element, push wiring back into oven opening, tighten down screws, clean up and close the door. Turn electricty back on and start the oven. It will smell for a few moinutes while the element heats up for the first time. You are good to go. To Easy
Bake element was glowing. . . Then by the morning, a "cancer-like" thingy traveled the length of it!after kicking off the breaker, I brought the broil down to the bake>. It worked (not recomended>. . But it worked for me). Came the new element, in 2 days. . . And all is back (the broil slots didn't line up so it was a redneck install at best til I got it back to normal). They should add the owner's faces to mt rushmore! Bless you all!
I cut of electric braker in fuse box, unscrewed two screws and replaced element in less than five minutes, really easy task. Oven worked well. Thank you Park Select, good job.
I am 68 years old and found that changing element was a breeze---using pliers removed nuts--unhooked bad element--rehooked new element---done------------recieved new element in 2 days--------- Thanks -----------------
