Lower Element Partially Heating
I removed the two screws holding the element in, pulled it out, and unplugged it. Installation was reverse of removal. It's just that simple.

Broil element burned out, literally!
Turned off power to oven. Lifted off the oven door. Removed four 1/4 " bolts from outside of fan housing. Removed two 1/4" bolts holding element. Removed element from three clips holding it to upper oven surface. Unplugged two element wires. Reassembly was the reverse. I am an auto mechanic by trade and this was a fairly simple process.

The range kept giving an F2 alarm
When I got the part I removed the tin cover (two screws)on the back of the range. I removed the sensor by removing the two screws inside the oven and pulled out the sensor. taking the instructions advise, I checked the sensor with my ohm meter and although it read 1.1 ohms as compared with the recommended 1.09 ohms at room temperature in the instructions, went ahead and changed the unit. The connector did not fit my particular model so I spliced the wiring and using the two included wire nuts made the connection. I reinstalled the sensor, reattached the gas line, plugged it in and tried the oven before I put it back in place. The oven works great now and it was super easy.

Burned-out Element
First of all, go to circuit breaker box and switch off the power to the oven.
Return to oven and verify the power is definitely off.
Open oven door to 'vent' position and remove door. Return hinges to closed position. Remove all racks.
Using nut driver (1/4-inch) remove the two screws just above the element.
Gently rock the element back and forth while pulling gently toward yourself. You should see two wires emerging from the layer of insulation in back of oven. When you have enough wire exposed, use long-nose pliers to gently rock the 'Faston' connectors and pull them off the element's male connectors.
Insert new element and re-install the connectors, being certain they are fully engaged.
Fasten the new element to the back wall of the oven using nut driver. Be careful to not cross-thread - gentle is the word!
Turn the circuit breaker on and very briefly turn the oven to Bake and verify the element is heating. It likely will smoke a bit.
Re-install the racks and the door. Reset the clock.
You should be done and your oven should run for many years..
