I noted the position of the two attached wires - black on top (or left), white on bottom (or right). Using a nutdriver with an extension bar, I unscrewed 4 screws holding the assembly in place. I removed the old fan and installed the new fan in its place. It was necessary to bend the new fan's legs out a bit to get them to line up with the holes. I reconnected the wires as mentioned above, then reinstalled the control panel.

I tested the oven by turning the breaker back on and letting the oven heat up to 450 degrees. The fan turned on as expected. After the oven cooled off, I reinstalled the 3 screws to secure the control panel.

So I wasn't sure what to do. The broiler has worked so I unhooked the broiler wire and fastened it to bake prong. The oven now worked.

The oven and broiler prongs are effectively hooked in parallel now. I tested it and the thermostat and shutoff worked properly with both the oven and broiler working.

All done after reassembly.
