Simply removed old and inserted new. No tools necessary.

1.Shut off power to stove. 2. Lift up non-working burner. 3. Unscrew retaining screw that allows burner to tilt. 4. Lift burner out. 5. remove clips from ceramic holder. 6. Unscrew 3 screws holding element, write down which color is attached to which element, or label wires. 7. unpack new element, directions say to cut off and tip the leads with solder, but I re-used the old circle connectors. 8. Screw the wires back on the new element (using nutdriver) 9. place element in new ceramic holder provided, and clamp shut. 10. place element in stove top opening and screw in retaining screw (honestly I could not get this to work correctly, so I just left the element sitting in the hole). 11. Turn power back on. This could take as few as 5-10 minutes, but I allowed 1/2 hour for turning power on and off or moving the stove to unplug it.

Unscrewed the prongs to the old element. When the new element showed up I put the new element back in again. Had no problem with the replacement and my oven works great.

Shut power to unit. Tilted burner element back, then removed pan screw,with nut driver which holds rear hinge in place. Next step was to remove clips that hold porcelain cover that covers the wires.Used nut driver to remove the three the wires. Installed new unit in the reversed order. Just make sure wires replaced in proper order. really easy !

The old eye was lifted up, hinge screw removed, and three screws removed from the eye that connected lines to it. Did just opposite for installation. Very easy. The hardest problem was finding an eye with three screw-type connections.

Just unpluged the old one and detached the wires. put the new one in and used a socket wrench to rewire it. . Very easy and was shipped in perfect condition and easy to replace. Very pleased.It fit perfect and oven works just fine. Thank you so much for the service which was very speedy. It was packed to perfection.

The old burner was disconnected by unscrewing the wire connectors. The new burner was installed by reconnecting the same wire connectors although the white and red connectors had to be swapped to make the inner element go on when #2 or med switch is chosen.

Range is 45 yrs old. New drip pans are different shape. This is only place which had them and VERY GOOD price. Delivery was quick, too!

I unscrewed the screw that held the element in place and then took the hex head nuts holding the 3 wires off the old element. When taking the wires off, I had the new element next the old and put each on the same connection one at a time to make sure I replaced the wires in the same location they were on the old element. After connecting the 3 wires, I reattached the element to the range.

As easy as 1-2-3 !!! :) Lift up burners, place drip bowls down then trim rings, put burners down! Could not be faster or easier! :) I Could NOT find these parts ANYWHERE !!! :) After much aggravation, I was EXTREMELY happy to come across these parts at PartSelect, online! :) Thanks so much for the diagram, you made is sooooooo EASY to find the precise parts that I needed, now I can cook !!! :)

Couldn't find drip pans locally that fit my stove. I came here by chance searching the internet and found the parts I needed and had them in my hands within a day or two!! Not a big parts repair story but excellent service and shipping!! Will buy from again when needed!

Just an easy replacement. Problem was, I couldn't find the parts. The service and turn-around was fabulous!

I had an appliance guy replace a burner(Calrod unit)on my 47 year-old GE range, but he didn't tell me that the original trim ring wouldn't fit. I decided to look up on PartSelect to see if I could get one to fit the new burner, and I did! Fits perfectly......no tools needed.
