The oven heat element experienced a sudden "flaming meltdown"
The meltdown was a spectacular event. After clearing the kitchen of smoke and allowing the oven to cool down. I easily removed the remnents of the old element by removing the screws holding each side in place and disconnected the two wires. I then insulated the hot side wire (red) to prevent the possibility of a short when resetting the breaker in order to use the stove top. The next day I found PartSelect.com and ordered the very reasonably priced new part with optional overnight shipping. it arrived at 1:00 pm the following day. Installation was a simple reverse of the removal. The oven works great and I now keep a fire extinguisher in my kitchen.
the element got too hot and burned a bad spot in the element.
First I removed the 2 screws on each side of the element and then pulled the element out, disconnected the 2 wires that were holding the element, got the new element and connected it to the wires, slid back into position, put the screws back in that hold the element and put the racks back in and turned on for test. It was so easy I had it done before my husband arrived home from work.
Watching the video showed an easy, unscrew and screw back on process while connecting the wires back. It was really that simple. Once it was complete (not even 10mins), plugged it back in, and its been working great since.
Removed sheet metal plate from back of oven. Disconnected two lead from existing bake element. Removed existing bake element, replaced with new one. Connected wires, replaced sheet metal.
The trick with this old oven is to access the wires from the back.
The only difficultly I had was to bend down the ends of the new element so they were straight. Easily done with a pair of pliers. Slide the connectors from the oven over the ends, and put them back into the holes for them in the oven.Correct size socket and it was installed in minutes. I turned the oven on, and there was my heat. I used an oven thermometer to check the heat, and it was perfect. Quick service and the element was exactly the correct size.
Moved stove out from wall and cabinets, then unplugged the stove. Removed the oven racks, then removed the 2 screws securing the baking (lower) element to the rear wall of the oven. Pulled the element out a few inches and disconnected it from the stove wires. Removed old element. Removed screws from rear panel to gain access to wiring. Inserted new element and connected to wiring. Put element in place and replaced the 2 screws in rear wall. Put rear panel back in place and replaced panel screws. Plugged stove back in and moved back into place. Tested oven and it worked just fine. Parts Select did a great job of filling my order and promptly shipping it. I got it in 2 working days.
Removed the elments2 screws, unhooked the two wires, removed the rear cover from back. I then installed the new element, covered the termanals with electric tape replaced the rear cover screwed down the new element, tested.
Took the back off, and took the terminals off. Took out the old element and put the new one in and put the terminals on and screwed it back in and put the back on. And all done.
First, trip the circuit breaker for your stove. Second I removed the two screws ( 1/4" nut driver makes this go quickly ) that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches ( double check the electricity is off with your tester )and disconnected the two wires from each side of the element. Press connectors on new element and slide back in.
I had a friend come..He unpluged the old one and put the new one in when it arrived. All is well. Thank you for having the part that was needed. Now the over works super.. S.Bullock
It was really easy. Removed the racks, removed the 2 quarter-inch screws with a nutdriver. Pulled the bad element out about 3-4 inches, enough to unhook the wires attached to the element with spade connectors. Unhooked the wires and removed bad element. Hooked up new element and reversed the process. Thanks PartSelect!
Turned off main power at electrical breaker. With pliers, removed two screws that hold element in place. Pulled element out about 3 to 4 inches. Disconnected two wires from element. With pliers, adjusted connections on new element connections from horizontal to vertical position. Connected two wires to connections of new element. Installed new element in oven with original two screws. Powered on main electrical breaker. Oven back in operation! Also, part arrived in 3 days! I'm a happy camper!
