RM235PXK0 Whirlpool Microwave Oven Combo - Instructions

turn off electric breaker, unscrew the 2 screws unplug the 2 ends replace old element with new repeat previous steps but unfortunately the control panel was also failing and that item has been discontinued.

Ordering the part online was easy. It arrived in a timely manner. I found a terrific video online showing how to install the terminal. It was so easy. Thank you for the great instructional video.

Disconnect power to the oven at circuit breaker. Most important confired power removed by turning on buner,also with electrial meter. Remove hex screw. Pulled purner forward approx 3 inches remove the two wires to burner element . Installed new burner reverse rotation . Returned power to oven,all was well no problems. Not to sure of burner wattage on old and new unit,as two burners are avaiable for this unit. All ok . Thanks to parts select for speedy part needed

Locate and shut off 220 volt breaker to Stove/Oven. Remove baking racks from oven. Use phillips screw driver to remove two phillip head screws holding bottom baking element in place. Slowly pull out element/wires and use volt meter to check for presence of voltage. Remove wires from element by pulling off female spade connector, push wire connector onto new element, carefully push wiring and element end thru rear opening and secure with the two phillip head screws. Replace baking racks, turn 220 volt source back on and test element to a high temperture, leave oven door open, new element will smoke slightly and create a burning odor, so take a few minutes to break in the new element. You're now readly to bake.
If you don't have a volt meter, turn stove/oven "ON" with lights indicating that stove/oven is ON, turn circuit breaker off and watch indicator lights go "OFF" when circuit breaker is tripped.

removed the two screws that hold the element in place, then slowly pulled the element out and disconnected the two wires, then reconnected the wires and screwed it back in - I'm a 25 year old female and did this in less than 5 min. - don't wait any longer to fix your oven!

Now I know why everyone said "less than 15 mins" for installation time...because "less than 5 min" wasn't an option! Went exactly as everyone described, just more quickly - turned off breaker, removed two screws, disconnected wires, reconnected wires to new element, re-attached it with screws, turned on breaker, checked it - worked like a charm. It was more work opening the box! Would have taken less time if my flashlight hadn't rolled off the open oven door leaving me with poor lighting conditions.

First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires...
then I reconnected the two wires to the new element and put back the two screws that hold the element in place and the job was finished.

The hardest part was taking out original light bulb because screws on shield where hard to unscrew after all this years . The old bulb vent out leaving neck in socket. It took narrow electrical pliers to get neck out .The generic appliance bulb did not fit and had aluminum neck ,not recommended for brass sockets in ovens.Putting new light bulb in was not the problem.

We have had our Whirlpool oven for 22 years and became very concerned that a part would not be available. We were thrilled to find the part as well as install the new part ourselves. With a screw driver, we disconnected the old baking element ( be sure to shut the power while doing this) and screwed in the new one. That simple!!!

I'll tell you.......PartSelect said the items would take from 3-5 days.....I got them in 48 hrs. I turned the breaker to the oven off. I unscrewd two screws from the back of the oven and pulled the element out and took it off of two connectors. Repeated the same with the broiler element. Job done saved $200.00...Job was quoted at $259.00

The hardest part was figuring which breaker controlled the oven because it wasn't marked in my breaker box (it IS now!). So, first I killed all power to the stove, then unscrewed the 2 screws in the back of the oven holding the element. Pulled the element forward, then dissconnected the 2 clampy connector wires (yes, I'm a girl, no correct electrical jargon here). These were a little difficult because my oven is 21 years old & this is the first replacement I've had to do. I reconnected the new element clamps(which was easier), pushed the wires back through the opening & reinserted the screws. Threw the breaker back on, turned on oven to 200 degrees & let heat until the set temperature light turned off as a test. Voila - oven fixed!

Could not believe that the part was here the next day! Install was simple,just connect the wires and screw it in.

The repair was simple. Two screws and it popped in. The part arrived quicker then expected. Done in no time.

Well it was quite simple to replace all I used was a long Phillips screw driver,the job only took me 10 minutes to complete,thank you so much for the part you sent me it was the correct part.

Unplug oven unit from outlet or flip the breaker to disconnect the electricity. Used screwdriver to remove face cover, pulled wire connections from posts of old bake element. Attached wire connections to posts of the new bake element(they just slip on the posts). Aligned the face cover flush with the oven wall and replaced screws to hold cover on. Reconnect electricity and ready to bake. It is very simple.... We were very pleased with how quickly the element was delivered after ordering it.
