RES36BFW1 Frigidaire Range - Instructions

I figured that it could not be a hard repair, that these things "die" in the ordinary lifetime of an oven, so that they would not make it too hard to get to. I pulled out the oven and disconnected it; opened three screws on the back, took off the back plate, and you could easily see the two connectors to the element. They came off with a gentle tug with pliers. Then you open the oven, and remove one screw on each side where the element is connected to the back wall of the oven. A magnetic hex socket end for the screwdriver makes it easier. Remove the old element gently through the glass wool insullation, and insert the new one with the element "legs" down. Verify the placement of the element connections in the back, and then replace the screw that hold the tab on the base of each element side to the back wall of the oven. Then, carefully reconnect the connector sleeve onto each end of the element in the back of the oven snuggly. Close the back panel with the three (the forth on the top was not tight and didn't need openening or closing)screws to the sides and bottom of the panel. Replace oven and reconnect to power, and test the element. It all took less than half an hour.

Just removed nuts. Pulled out the element from the unit. Disconnected each end. Reconnected new element. Pushed piece back into insulated unit. Attached nuts. Done.

They don't make appliances this easy to repair anymore. just as others say: screw out, unhook element ..hook new one to wires, screws back in.. you're DONE.. Thanks for great service and very quick delivery

(e.g. 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...) I did have a problem with the wire connectors. they were a little over heated and loose, so I used pliers to ajust the connection.

***Make sure power is off the stove*** then remove oven racks.
Used 1/4 inch socket to remove 2 screws holding in the heating element, then pulled the element out a couple of inches to get at the wiring. Used pliers to unplug 2 spade clips.
Reversed procedure to install new element.

Oven quit heating after less than 6 years. Checked with a volt-ohm meter and determined element was open. Ordered new element. Unit arrived in good time, replaced in about 15 minutes with no problems at all. Took longer to remove and replace oven door tha it did to install element.

Bake element went back in very easy. However still wouldn't work. Called repairman and computer chip was shorted out as well. Additional $250.00 later stove works.

Read the reviews and followed the same procedure. Very east..took about 10-15 minutes.
Product shipped same day/next day it was delivered and it was installed less than 30 hours after it was ordered.
Exceptional service.

Unplugged stove, use nutdriver, removed screws, pulled out old element, put in new one. Done. As prescribed. Excellent help as well as got part the next business day.

I used this site self diagnostic page and ordered the oven heating element as that was the item suggested for repairs. It was the correct part to fix my oven problem. I had my electrician visiting to install two light fixtures so I had him install the new heating element in the oven. Even with him going to the garage to turn the circuit breaker off for the range the installation took less than 5 minutes.
This site is the greatest!

Very easy repair. First and very important step...shut off power to the oven! Then removed two small screws holding element to back of oven, gently pulled it and the wires connected to it toward me, disconnected the wires, connected the new element and reversed the process. However what I really appreciated about this was how easy it was to find the part on PartSelect.com. It was difficult to read the model number stamped on the plate at the front of the oven, and I got 1 letter and 1 digit wrong. But when I did the search, instead of just telling me "not found," it offered a list of model numbers that were close to what I'd entered, and the first one was correct. Very helpful! The online store is very well set up and easy to navigate.

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!

Removed 2 rear screws. Pulled out element. Popped out 2 wire clips. Replaced old element with the new one and attached wire clips. A caveman could do it.

Thank for having the part necessary to put the old range back in shape. The repair job was simply to unplug the old one and plug in the new one! Great simply job!

First, I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I pulled out the element about 2 inches, and then I wasn't sure what to do, so I called my son and he finished the project in about 5 minutes or less. He pulled off the wires and then put the new element in place, slipped the wires on the new element, then pushed it back into the holes and screwed the screws back in. Worked great.
