BURNT-OUT ELECTRIC BAKE OVEN ELEMENT
USE A MAGNETIZED SCREW DRIVER. BE CAREFUL THE OVEN ELECTRIC WIRES DO NOT FALL BACK INSIDE OF THE OVEN. HAVE LONG NOSE PLIERS HANDY. MAKE SURE YOU TILT THE ELEMENT SO THAT THE ELEMENT TERMINALS ALIGN PROPERLY WITH THE THE SCREWS AND ELECTRIC WIRES. THAT'S IMPORTANT ELSE YOU CANNOT GET THE SCREWS STARTED TO ATTACH THE ELEMENT.
turn off electricity to stove and simply remove the screws from the heating element and put new element back in place .put screws in and turn power back on and test.
I looked on Youtube for a how to video. It was accurate but the screws in my oven were NOT phillips head screws, they turned out to be sheet metal screws. I used pliers at first which was a PAIN but then I borrowed a socket wrench from the neighbor that was MUCH better!! I had wanted to do it myself to prove to my husband and son that I could but I ended up needing their help because the screws were so tight.... But we did the repair ourselves!!!
Removed door. Take out two hold down screws for element. Hold electrical tab with pliers and remove screw on each tab. Reverse directions to reinstall. Door may have screws to remove.
Turned off power. Then loosened two nuts at back of oven. Pulled out old element and inserted new element. Tightened two nuts and turned power back on.
PULL RANGE OUT FROM WALL & ALSO REMOVED OVEN DOOR BY SLIDING UP. WORKING FROM INSIDE OVEN & ALSO BEHIND I REPLACED PART . ALWAYS " UNPLUG " RANGE BEFORE YOU START.
0. As a safety precaution, unplug the range or hit the relevant fuse breaker before you start. You might also want to grab a flashlight. Definitely do not try to do this while the oven is hot. 1. Pinch the wire over the light bulb cap to remove it. This is inside the oven at the back. 2. Pop off the hemispherical glass cap. 3. Unscrew the old light bulb, and screw the new light bulb in its place. 4. Put the cap back. 5. Secure the cap by putting the wire back in its slots on the cap.
No tools needed, the cap is just held in place with pressure from the wire.
Removed 4 scews from old element and replaced the old element with the new element with the supplyed new screws. It was very easy. The new element works great.
turn off breaker in electrical panel....remove stove socket from outlet....remove rear panel from stove....undo wire connectios from broiler element....inside the oven, gently move thermostat wire out of the way....unbolt broiler plate from rear wall....remove broiler hanger and then broiler element....reverse procedure and you're all set.
First I removed the two srews that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about three inches and disconnected the two wires. I attached the wires to the new element and we had our oven working again. I really am happy with the timely service I received from PartSelect and would recommend them to anyone.
If the bottom heating element is not glowing red when you turn the oven on replacing this part may be the answer. Look for a spot on the old element that could indicate it has shorted out and no longer carries a charge. Very simple to remove the two screws holding the element in place, pull the element out about 3 inches, disconnect the two wires, replace with the new element and reattach the two screws. Simple and effective. The new element is fast and responsive. Do this before any other suggestions to replace more complicated parts in the thermostate etc.
