Oven broiler stopped working. Had to replace the broiler element.
Just like the other responses described with two additional steps: 1) with a convection oven you have to remove the fan cover. It has four screws, the same size as the broiler element screws....but, get a piece of stiff cardboard the same width as the oven; put it all the way back, under the fan cover. There are holes in the oven bottom and your screws really want to roll into those holes and disappear; the cardboard will cover the holes. 2) as soon as you disconnect the element from the electrical wires....put a twist tie or other clamp on each wire as they want to fall back in behind the oven and you'll end up having to remove the build oven to get at the wires. The twist tie should keep them from falling out of reach.

Lower Bake Element Had Cancer-Like Freeakout!
Bake element was glowing. . . Then by the morning, a "cancer-like" thingy traveled the length of it!after kicking off the breaker, I brought the broil down to the bake>. It worked (not recomended>. . But it worked for me). Came the new element, in 2 days. . . And all is back (the broil slots didn't line up so it was a redneck install at best til I got it back to normal). They should add the owner's faces to mt rushmore! Bless you all!

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.

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..
