J416V2 General Electric Range - Instructions

This was quite an easy fix once I got the correct part. It was my own fault for ordering what I thought went with my oven. I didn't expect to be able to even find a new heating element because the stove is almost 40 years old. Except for that one part it works just fine. It took me about 20 minutes to do the repair. I unplugged the stove, unscrewed the 2 screws holding the element to the back of the stove, pulled it out far enough to unscrew the 2 screws attached to the wires, screwed the new part to the wires, screwed the whole unit back onto the back of the stove and plugged it back in. It works great. Moving the stove away from the wall was more difficult than installing the new part. It couldn't have been easier and it was a lot less expensive than buying a new stove. Also, the customer service people I spoke to were very friendly and helpful and there was no problem returning the incorrect part. I would recommend this company to anyone who asks.

Turn off electricity to the oven. A socket set was needed for the small screws in my old oven. Once the screws were removed the element came off easily from two wires in the oven. You have to be careful when handling the wires that they don’t fall back into the oven. The new part was attached to the two wires, screws were tightened on the new element and that was it. When the oven was turned on the new element smoked a little but I saw on the video that is normal.

Removed 2 screws (with 1/4" nut driver) on bracket holding heat element at back of oven. Pull element forward to expose the 2 wires connected to element, remove screws on wire corrections with flat head screw driver. Remove element from oven......Reverse the steps to install new heat element.....very easy job....except I cleaned the oven while I had the element out of the oven.

I first unplugged the stove as that was easier than going to turn off the breaker. I removed both oven racks for more room to work. There were two screws to removed inside the back of the oven. After pulling the element out a few inches I was able to unscrew the two screws that held the wires onto the element. I made sure to note which wire went on which side. Then did everything backwards with the replacement element.Plug the oven back in and make sure it works. This was the easiest repair I have ever had to make on any appliance! It's good to note the new element could heat much faster and hotter than the old one. I plan to check the temp when baking. The replacement one also hinged so cleaning in the future will be much easier as well.

Customer service is great. Fast shipping. Great communication. I have them bookmarked from a previous order. Same good service as the first time. Thank you.

The complete repair was quick, easy, and painless. Not only did my item show up sooner than I thought the whole replacement took only 15 minutes, tops, to complete. I even had my 18 months old daughter helping too.

First and foremost I turned off the power to the oven by tripping the circuit breaker in the basement. Then verifying that the oven or stove top did not work to insure that the correct circuit breaker was tripped.

Then I removed the two mounting bolts on the support plate, that holds the element in place, from the rear wall of the oven. Then slide out the element just far enough to gain access to the wires that are attached to the element, about 3-6 inches. Carefully removed the two wires from the element with a screwdriver, noticing how flexible the ends of the element were. Removed the old element out of the oven. Placed the new element into the oven and then reattached the two wires to the new element terminals, being careful not to bend the ends of the element too much, very flexible!! Slide the element back into place and then reattached the mounting bolts. Turned all power back on to the stove and then turned the oven on and presto!, my oven is fully functional again.

First I removed the 2 mounting screws that mount the element to the back wall in the oven, then pulled the element out about 4 to 5 inches, then removed the 2 screws attaching the wires to the element, then reversed the process to instal the new element. The only tool reguired was a 1/4 inch nut driver. Did the job in about 5 Minutes. The replacement fit and works perfectly.

I was lucky to look at other repair stories because I forgot to turn off the power!!! Nothing happen to me, but it was as simple as everybody else said. Unscrew the two screws, pull out element, unscrew another two screws and put back together in reverse order. Viola, the oven was back in working order just in time for a major event the next day. Thanks everybody for their tips and partselect for fast shipping.

I turned off the breaker, removed two screws that held the element in place, pulled it out about four inches, disconnected the screws securing the wires to the element. Removed the old element, placed the new one in the oven and reversed the procedure.

I removed the screws holding the element in place. I pulled the element out from the back of the oven about 3" and then disconnected the two wires. I then reattached the two wires to the new element and pushed the element back flush with the rear of the oven. I then rescrewed the two screws that hold the element in place. That was all there was to it.. Very easy. I am 54 years old and have never done this before.. So if I can do it so can you....

I was worried at being able to locate the part as the oven is over 35 years old. I put in the old part number on your site and it gave me the correct replacement. On my model you unscrew the two screws securing the element to the back of the oven. Then pull out the old element carefully because the wires are screwed onto the element. I pulled it out 4 or 5 inches and unscrewed the wires and connected the wires to the new element. I then threaded the wires back into the hole at the back of the oven and screwed the element back in place. Works perfect.

First, turn off the power. Remove the two retaining screws, pull out the broken element far enough to unscrew the connectors, remove the element, reconnect the new element, screw it back in, turn the power back on. Yes, it is that easy! Took me all of five minutes. Took longer to find my tools!

Removed the screws. Pulled out the element and disconnected the wires. Attached the wires from the new heating element and screwed it in.

First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I pulled the element out and disconnected the two wires that hold it in place. I reversed the process for the new element and viola! The oven works just great. The element actually arrived a day earlier than expected. Thanks Parts Select!
