My bake element broke in half
First i turned off the main electricity for the oven. Then I removed the two screws with my socket wrench. Then i pulled the element out about 3 inches then disconnected the 2 wires that heated the element. I simply reversed the process to put in the new bake element and i was done.

A few days before Christmas, my lower oven heat element went out.
I went on-line, found Partselect.com, they gave me the part number, showed me a video on the repair details, shipped the part overnight, and within ten minutes of the arrival of the part, I was up and running. EXCELLENT SERVICE! Thanks for saving Christmas at our house!!

Element not working
You literally saved our Christmas from a disaster! Four days before Christmas our bake element gave out and we discovered it had split. We found you on the Internet, ordered the part, and prayed you would deliver as promised. We received it the next day, as promised, and in time to cook Christmas dinner. It was a snap to install, literally took five minutes. Your service, response time and instructions were perfect. Keep up the good work!

heating element burnt through
Very easy repair. Part came wrong the first time (my fault for ordering the wrong one). Called and ordered the correct one after a closer match to the original part. Delivered much quicker than promised (one day) and installation very easy. Will use this site for all future repairs.

Oven would not heat
I watched the video on the website then installed the part. In fact, I watched the video twice because I could not believe it was that easy. You can not do any better than PartSelect. Shipping is fast and the instructions are great. If I ever need a part for any appliance I will go to PartSelect.com first. Keep up the great work and thank-you so much!

Old element shorted out after Thanksgiving (thankfully)
We were able to purchase the part and replace it for under $25. We took off the oven door and installed the new element in under 10 minutes.

Oven would not heat up
Took out the hexagon screws, used pliers to pull the connecting ends apart, slid in the new element in to the connecting slots, reattached to screws, turned on the oven to see if it would heat up and it did. It was really easy. I had waited for a week to get the part from my local Sears parts house. You sent it out and I had it in 3 days. They still don't have the part. Thanks so much.

the old oven element burned in two.
After removing the screws holding the element in I disconnected the wires and attached alligator clips to the wires to keep them from pulling back inside the holes. I would have had to pull the stove out and removed some covers if they disappeared through the holes. After getting the part number off of the old element, I ordered a new element from Partselect.com and received the new one in less the a week. Reinstalling the new element took about 5 minutes.

Bottom element cracked/split - open circuit
Removed oven shelves (30 seconds). Removed 2 screws holding broken element to oven (2 minutes). Pulled broken element assembly out & removed 2 wires attached to element (1 minute). Connected wires to new element (just push them into place) and mounted new element with the 2 screws (1 1/2 minutes). Turned on oven element to test & since I was so tired from all of this 5-minute activity, I rested.

Door was hard to open
After reading other stories, I knew enough to slide the lower drawer out and take off the spring. 30 second job. I did not realize that range doors slide vertically off the hinge, did that in about 2 mins. Put the new hinge on in 2 mins (3 Screws). Slid the door back on and done. Works like a champ. My wife has her eye on new stainless appliances. Sadly, she'll have to wait a while longer.

Element broke
First I switched the fuse to the oven had no power and then I removed the old element and wiped down the inside with a damp towel.
I then attached the new element and then used the screws to attach the element firmly into place.
I then restored power by switching the fuse back and then burned the element to remove and chemicals and then done
