JKC26304 General Electric Range - Instructions

I first turn off the 220 power braker to the electric stove. Making sure the stove and element is very cool.

I then removed the two screws that hold the lower baking element in place. Pull gently on the element not to break the wires from the wall of the stove (about 3 to 4 inches).

I than unscrewed the right and left wire attached to the element with the nut driver. (This old element was attached with small nut screws. The new one has screws that use a screw driver). Keeping the wires apart, I removed the old element and replace it with the new element part.

In replacing the new element, facing the stove I connected the black wires to the left side (my left hand) and the white wire to the right side (my right hand) with the new screws using a screw driver. REMEMBER TO REPLACE THE WIRES BACK THE WAY THEY CAME OFF WHEN THE STOVE WAS WORKING PROPERTLY. Attach the element back to the stove and turn the breaker on. Easy to do job.

removed 2 screws that hold the element in place, then pulled element out took 2 more screws out and reversed proc. I couldn't have had a better rep to help me find the right part. Thank you

I had a friend of mine who came to my home equipped with screwdrivers and flashlight. After turning off the electricity at the fuse box he removed the oven door (for easier access),removed the screws,pulled out the existing element far enough to disconnect the wires, placed the new one into place, connected the wires, screwed the new one into place
turned the power back on, turned on the oven and after about 15 seconds, the element began to turn from a dark gray to a light color beginning to turn orange.

It only took 15 minutes and a nut driver to replace.The part was $22,well worth keeping my oven going for a few more yaers

Unscrewed the plate and unplugged the old element and plugged the new one in, screwed the plate back on. Done.

Followed directions left by a previous user on PartSelect: 1. open oven door and lifted it off hinges; 2. Unscrewed mounting element mounting plate from rear of oven (may need nutdriver, allen wrench or screwdriver) 3. Unscrewed electrical leads from element; replaced with new element and reversed the steps.

Removed bolts from fixing plate, pulled out existing element, unscrewed wire connectors and installed new element in reverse order of removal. This is an old stove from the 60's or 70's so I was glad to get a replacement part and fit it myself so easily.

I first looked at a video PartSelect had done on replacing the bake element in a stove. I disconnected the stove's power plug from the wall, removed the baking shelves, and removed screws holding the cover plate for the old bake element with a nutdriver. I removed the two screws holding the power wires to the bake element and replaced the bake element with the new element purchased from PartSelect. The cover plate was repositioned by using the nutdrive to tighten the cover plate screws. After reinstalling the bake shelves and plugging the oven back in, the repair was finished.

Removed 2 screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out 3-4 inches and noticed 3 wires attached. (had expected 2). Disconeccted the 3 wires and renoved old element.. Reversed process with new element, and reattached wires as I found them. Inserted element and inserted holding screws for new element. Ran through self-cleaning cycle. Works great. A written warning about the wires in the box would have been comforting.

Simply removed the old part and istalled the new one with 2 nuts and 2 screws. It helps to know what the problem is. That comes with life experience.

fairly easy. Only four screws. The only problem was reaching the back of the oven without hurting my back and being careful not to over tighten the wires to the new burner ends. I wish all repair were as easy.

1st. turned breaker to oven to off position. removed oven racks from oven. removed "2" small metal screws that held baking element in place to back of oven. easily pulled element toward front of oven. removed two additional metal screws that connected "element" to oven wiring. connected new element to wiring using screws, pushed back in place to back of oven, and replaced screws that held baking element in place. replaced oven racks and turned breaker to on position. total time apprx. 7-8 minutes.

I have some electrical experience. It was simple to remove and install. You just have to pay attention to wiring upon removal and installation.

Firstly a big thanks to Parts Select.com I order the part on a Monday and it was delivered on the Wednesday of the same week!

Firstly I pulled the stove out of the space between the counter tops. Next I unplugged the stove. I opened the oven door unscrewed the two screws holding the element onto the back of the oven. Next I unscrewed the two screws that fastened the wires onto the two ends of the element. The element was then able to be removed from the oven. I then fitted the new element by repeating the same procedures to take the element out. The whole process took me less than 15 minutes.

My daughter and I turned off the breaker to the range and removed the old element and replaced it with the new one. My husband came home and took over after we had done almost everything ourselves!!
