Old element had ceased to work.
I removed the two screws that hold the element to the back of the oven. Pulling the element out of the back, I removed the screws which connect the element to the electrical wiring. I placed the new element into position and reconnected the wiring. I made sure that the wiring and connectors were insulated with shrink wrap plastic, then pushed the new element into place. Connecting the two screws to the back of the oven completed the job. Toughest part, kneeling on my knees -- the part supplied fit like a glove and it works wonderfully well. Hint: measure the connectors to the wiring so that you order the correct length! (I didn't and had to reorder, but I am very happy with PartSelect.)

Oven would not heat; range element burned out
First of all the part came super fast with standard delivery. We threw the circuit switch to the oven. We used a nut driver to remove the nuts holding the element in place and then gently pulled it out of the hole so we could see the terminals. Using a screwdriver we loosened the screws that hold the terminals to the power lines. We put the old element aside and laid the new element on the floor of the oven. Using a screwdriver and the original screws we attached the terminals of the new element to the power lines. Using a screwdriver and the new screws provided we attached the bracket to the back of the oven. Turned on the power; used the oven. Works perfectly.

Lower Baking Element burned out - needed replacement.
Repair went fine after I got the second element shipped to me. First element sent was DOA, so I called customer service and they credited my CC for part cost and shipping, then charged the new replacement to my account and mailed it out. Got it the next day. Repair was easy - turned off power to oven took out two screws holding element in place. Unbolted the two wires from element and installed new element. Oven element heated up cherry red and I am back to baking with an oven I thought was a gonner. Was impressed with customer service replacement process. It was fast and easy with no problems. Will buy again from PartSelect.com. Thanks

Heating element broke
Use nut driver to take off shield. Pull out element to expose element and wire connections. Use nut driver to take off the 2 little screws. Remember what side is positive(red wire) and what side is negative(black wire). Put shield over the 2 wire and reconnect to element. Will need a standard screwdriver for the new screws. Slide wires into insulation and put back on shield.

Heating element was bad, no heat
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. Attached the wires to the new heating element, screwed it back in. That's it.
I was glad they had the part for such an old oven.

Heating element cracked and arcing
First I unplugged the oven from the wall. Then 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. The installation process was just as easy as the removal. Approx 10 minutes and I was cooking. BTW, the heating element was at my house the next day after ordering. Great service

oven baking element would not heat
First , for safety, I flipped breakers to kitchen applicances to cut off the power. Removed the 2 screws that held the old element in place. Pulled it out a couple of inches and disconnected the 2 wires attached to the prongs of the element. Reattached them to the new element, pushed it back in and replaced the screws. Turn power back on and voila! ... was ready to bake again! All this is a matter of 15 mins!

The bake element broke in half and did not heat after that
First I took out the oven racks removed two screws then I pulled it out a couple of inches to expose the wires and removed the screw. Put the new element in place and replaced the two screws put the wires back and replaced the two screws that hold the element in place.
My stove is over 40 years old matching the 40's - 50's style decor. in my kitchen if I had to replace the entire stove for a reproduction the cost would have been substantually more.
I didn't even have to ask my husband to do this it was easy enough to do myself.

Bottom oven coil not heating
My husband did the repair in about 15 minutes. It was apparently self explanatory and required no directions. Take the old one out and replace it the same way it came out. And viola!!, the oven works like new - all for about $33. Thanks

No heat in oven, Only broiler working
Element was in two pieces so it was obviously dead. I disconnected the stove from the power, I undid the two screws at the back of the oven and gently pulled the element out. There was enough slack to reach and pull the connectors apart. Done. I ordered the part from "PartSelect" and it arrived the next day. Unfortunately I ordered the element with "Screw" convectors as opposed to "push on" connectors. I bought a couple of connectors and cut off the original connectors from the wires in the oven and replaced them making absolutely sure they were well and truly tight. Two screws cam with the element from "PartsSelect (Thankfully). Connected the wires and screwed it back into place. Stood clear, plugged it in and turned it on to max. Worked just fine, Thanks
