RM278BXP1 Whirlpool Microwave Oven Combo - Instructions

Don't know, left the room.

First I removed the two screwes that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires from the old element, then I connected the two wires to the new oven heating element. Pushed the unit back in place and reinstalled the two screws that hold it in place.( ALL Done)

Unplug power cord, remove wires from block. take 2 screws out. replace with new block about 15 mins. Done

Shut off circuit breaker to stove. Removed oven racks from oven. Removed two phillips head screws located at the base of the bake element at the back of the oven. Gently pull the element toward the front of the oven until the wiring connected to the element by spade connections can be reached. I used a pair of pliers to help separate the element from the wiring. Removed disfunctional element from oven. Sweep out the bottom of the stove with a dustpan & brush. Lay the new replacement element on the bottom of the oven. Connect element to wiring via spade connectors. Gently feed the wires back thru the holes until the the tips of the element follow thru the wire holes until the base of the element is flat against the back of the oven. Screw in screws thru the base to the back of oven - tighten tight. Reset cir brkr. Test oven.

followed the instructions. removed the old element and installed new one.

Shut power off to stove, by turning off breaker. Using a screw driver, removed the 2 screws securing broken bake element to back of oven wall. Grasp the 2 wires holding the prones & gentley removed broken element. Attached new bake element to wires, put screws back in & secured to oven wall, turned breaker to stove back on. Oven works great, had pizza for dinner.

Replaced for a friend who was financially unable to purchase the unit. Turned off power to stove. Removed two screws. Inserted the unit and replaced the two screws. All fixed in about 15 min. Now she can enjoy baking again.

I unplugged the stove/oven then unscrewed the bottom element (two screws in the back). I pulled the two electrical clips off the old bake element then removed it. I pushed the electrical clips on the new back element then screwed it back in. After plugging the oven back in and turning it on the oven worked perfectly!

i removed the back cover unpluged 2 wires
inside the oven removed 2 screws from the element . reversed the process to re install the new part

I completed my repair early in the day so that there would be no need to be concerned with any hot parts in the oven. I checked and rechecked that the oven was turned "Off". Then I removed the top rack to give myself room to work in the oven. Next, I unscrewed the screws that were in the "holding clips" that held the back of the element in place. Then I unscrewed the screws that held the element to the top of the oven. I then carefully pulled the element out of the sockets at the back of the oven. Once I noticed how the element was connected to the power, I continued to pull the element and the wiring out of the sockets about 3 inches. I then carefully disconnected the power from each element end by gently sliding the connector off the end of the element. As I removed each wire connection, I carefully situated the wire so that it didn't slip down its socket. I then removed the "holding clips" from the old element and slid them into place on the new element. I then reconnected the power to the new element. Then I carefully fed the wiring back into the sockets and then reinserted the ends of the element into the sockets. I then screwed the "hanging clips" back into place at the back of the oven. Next, I replaced the screws into the brackets that held the element onto the top of the oven. Once I made sure everything was back as it was, I said a little prayer and then turned on the broiler to see if it worked. And Yeah! It worked and I saved my family budget the price of a service call - and that was probably worth $150.00.

I removed the screws that hold the element in place .
Pulled the element out enough to disconnect the two wires . I then connected the new wires and pushed in the element . I finished off by screwing the bolts back in place.. Voila!!!!!!! I was in business once more!
The part arrived within 48 hours and was very reasonably priced

My husband said HE JUST TOOK OUT A COUPLE OF SCREWS ,TOOK THE OLD ONE OUT AND PUT THE NEW ONE IN .

I had previously removed the element so I began by installing the new element. The wire connectors, did not fit as tightly as they did on the old element due to a slightly different shape on the element. Therefore, I had to take some needle-nosed pliers in order to bend the oven's wire connectors and make them fit tighter. Once that was done I struggled a bit to slip the connectors onto the new element but finally got them on.

There is also a 208V element available for this oven but after calling the web site's phone number was advised that the 208v is for an apartment-type oven and that the 240V is appropriate.

Everything works well!

I had no instructions, so I started by removing the two screws that seemed to hold the element together. I pulled the element forward and realized I had to seperate the element from the wires. It was an old unit so it took a strong tug but it did come apart. I was hoping at this point I was doing the right thing...I reconnected the new element , pushed it back in and replaced the screws. I was very impressed with myself! The new element heated up in no time. Yeah me!
Thank you "Part Select" for making it possible.

Turned off the breaker to the stove. Removed the two screws holding the element in place. Pulled off the wire terminals, removed old element. Reconnected the two wires, slid new element into place, reinserted the two holding screws, turned back on breaker. 5 minutes.
