Just replace the parts. Too easy for an old man.

Removed back replaced clock/timer . All conections unplug easy. Be sure and turn off power before you do anything.

snap out the old one and snap in the new

Removed the old ones and inserted the new ones.

I unplugged the dead burner and plugged in the new burner. Very easy. No tools needed.

my original part arrived and it did not fit. When I called to explain the problem I was told it was the wrong part. The big problem is... Frigidaire calls the receptacle a terminal block kit as well as a terminal block kit which is a totally different part. I tried to explain that to several different folks I spoke to at your company as well as Frigidaire but I'm not sure if I got that point across. Take a look at part # 530 393 5058 and part # 530 440 9888 and you will see that they both mention terminal block kit. Hopefully the part I am getting from Frigidaire is an OEM part and will fit.

We turned off the power, took out the element, installed new element.

Had to remove oven door due to cabinetry. Removed screws holding unit to back wall. Pulled unit forward to release unit from front roof and expose wire connections to unit. Trick #1--get both hands into oven to to remove wires from unit. Front hanger for unit was different than old unit. Had to remove front hanger from both units. Hanger from old unit had to be sqeezed onto new unit in the unit in the proper location to fit into the roof stirrup to hang the unit. Now, two arms and hands into the back of the oven to reconnect the wires to the element. Slide the old support into the stirrup and screw to back wall. Result, the back wall plate of the new element partially covered the edge of the light cover which will be a challenge to replace the bulb.

ordered an oven rack, stuck it in the oven --- how easy is that?

Unplugged elements. Removed old pans. Wiped out holes. Inserted new pans, replaced elements.

This range is probably 30+ years old. Still works great. Just needed to replace the Drip Bowls.

Plugged the new one in and it worked.
I did search out Frigidaire parts and there are other types tha may or may not work. Calrod burners are not all that unusual. I went with the real thing.

Remove the lower bake element by removing the 2 retaining screws that secure the element to the inside oven back. Carefully slide the element out. There are 2 wires attached to the terminals of the element. While removing be careful to not pull the insulation out with the wiring. Attach the wires to the terminals of the new element and reinstall in reverse order.

Turned off electricity to the stove top opened up the aluminum cover under the stove top with the screwdriver Took off the wires one at a time with the pliers as they were on tight and replaced them on the new part Replaced the aluminum cover Turned on electricity and voila it worked fine no sparking
