RS33BFW0 Frigidaire Range - Instructions

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.

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!

took off the back of the stove..first Unplugged it! and undid the old unit, and put the new one on....easy peasy!..Thanks for your fast mailing!

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.

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.

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..

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

We tested all of the other "functions" of the oven to make sure that everything else worked fine, and we realized that the problem really had to be the element.

We ordered it and it came within 72 hours! We simply unscrewed the faulty element, made sure that the wires were handled carefully (circuit turned off!), and inserted the new element and rewired and screwed back into place the screws that were removed.

Simple as pie! You can do this! You don't need a service call for this one guys! Get BRAVE!!

Had to drill 2 new holes 1/4 lower in oven so new coil would bolt up evenly besides that it went easily.

I unhooked element from wall on inside. Only two screws to undo. I then took back of stove off and unhook speaker like connectors. It was very simple.

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.

Please make sure the oven is off before working on oven.
Removed element by removing the 1/4 inch bolts. There were spade lugs attached to it end of element inside hole around insulation. Be careful as to not let spade lugs slip back into hole. I left it attached to broken elemnt piece until I was ready to install new one. That way it held it into place.
