bake element sparking..then a complete break in the element.
I first remove the oven door, which is very east on this model. You tilt it a quarter of the way when you open it to use and pull up. It comes off very easy. My second step was pulling on the bake element towards the front. It will expose the wiring connection to the bake element. You will see two wire that are attached by two one screw for each connection. You will need a nut driver to remove. The removal is very simple. Note: Please be sure to turn off your circuit breaker to the oven! ( this is a safety measure,plus it will make you more at ease with the installation. You then can remove the screw nuts & replace with you new bake element. A real piece of cake & very easy even for a average home-owner. Thanks to Part Select for ease of ordering this item. It is a very friendly website! Thanks! Orin

Needed to replace the lower heating element in my oven
1)Unscrewed the mounting nuts, 2) pulled the heating element out a couple of inches, 3) unscrewed the screws holding the wires in place, 4) removed and tossed the old heating element, 5) placed the new heating element in place, 6) re-screwed the wires to to the element, 7) pushed the heating element back into the wall of the oven, 8) reset the mounting nuts, 9) cleaned up the work area, 10) cranked up the oven and made a pizza. I'm not particularly skilled when it comes to things of this nature, but it was ridiculously easy...

bottom element of wall oven non-functioning
First I turned the power off to the oven at the breaker box. Then I removed the nuts holding the element to the rear wall of the oven and pulled it out a couple of inches. I saw that only 2 nuts held the element to the wires. I found the part on your site very easily and placed my order. The part was at my door 2 days later! I removed the old element, replaced the new element and turned the breakers back on. Repair complete!

I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires...removed the baking element and put the new element back in the same way I took the old one out. It was great directions that was posted and easy to do. Best of all I saved the price of a service call. Thank you

Bake element was warped and looked like it could fail.
First, I turned off the circuit breaker. Then I removed the two screws on the hinged plate that attaches the element to the back wall of the oven. Then pulled out the two wires attached to the element by screws. I detached the old element and reversed the sequence to install the new element. Very simple operation for the average homeowner.

The control knob stem broke off when I moved the stove.
I located and removed 2 sets of hex-head screws under the front lip of the cooktop, then lifted the entire cooktop to access the burner controls. Removed the wires and taped them, and took out the old control after removing 2 phillips head screws. Installed replacement part easily. Only tricky part is that the various shaft adapters don't quite work with my knob. I'll fix it completely with a bit of epoxy and the adapters they sent.

Heating element would not heat
This job was easy. I removed two screws to release the element from the back of the oven, two more screws to release the electrical connection, connected the new element with the new screws provided and reattaced the heating element to the back of the over. It took two tries to get the element so that is sat level at the bottom of the oven. Ten minutes later, I was making dinner!

Bake element burned in two and was sparking
The bake element is very easy to replace. Turn off the circuit breaker to the stove. Two screws (1/4" socket needed, not screwdriver) come out to release the plate, then two more screws of the same size to unfasten the element to the stove wiring. Reverse the process to put the new one back in. I let my fourteen year old son do the whole thing. By the way, the photo of the element on the web site did not look like the element in my stove. I called customer support and was assured that it was the proper part. When it arrived, it did exactly match my element. The photo on the web site was incorrect. (Part number PS249466)
