RC548*T2 Hotpoint Range - Instructions

It would have gone with ease but the screws holding the element to the conductors were not original. Once those were removed, we were able to use the screws included and were done in 5 minutes.

Totally pleased! I ordered the part Monday evening, and it was delivered Wednesday morning. Awesome! Was able to change the part in about 15 minutes. Thanksgiving was a success! Part Select saved my Thanksgiving! Highly recommend :) Thank you!

Super simple installation. Once power was isolated from the oven, we removed the old bake element which had four nuts/screws. Then we installed the new element, turned the power back on and tested the oven. It worked perfectly! The whole process took maybe 5 minutes.

CAUTION: Make sure stove is unplugged as there is still current with it off! Removed 2 screws to pull old element out & 2 screws on electrical wires. Put new element in & screwed all screws, very easy repair. A big THANK-YOU to PartSelect for getting the part to us so fast!!

First we unplugged stove, if wired into circuit shut off in breaker box. Undo four screws on back cover and detach wires from element. Remove oven door by pulling open and sliding it up off hinges. Undo two screws holding element to back wall of oven. Slide in new element and replace screws in back wall. Replace door. Slide wire leads on new element in back, at this point we plugged range in and tested element to see if heating. It worked so we replaced cover, slide range in and leveled it with wedges. Time for pizza.

The repair is simple. Unplug or turn off power to stove. Remove the 2 visible screw where the element connects to the back of the oven. Pull the element with back plate out. The back plate is part of the element. Remove 2 screws that connect wire. Mark which color connects to which lead. Re-assemble in reverse order. Takes about 15 minutes,

Removed 2 screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out 3-4 inches and noticed 3 wires attached. (had expected 2). Disconeccted the 3 wires and renoved old element.. Reversed process with new element, and reattached wires as I found them. Inserted element and inserted holding screws for new element. Ran through self-cleaning cycle. Works great. A written warning about the wires in the box would have been comforting.

Repair was super easy - read the other stories posted. They give more than adequate instruction.

Amazingly helpful website. Found the part, instructions to install, and able to order in less than 20 minutes!

I first turn off the 220 power braker to the electric stove. Making sure the stove and element is very cool.

I then removed the two screws that hold the lower baking element in place. Pull gently on the element not to break the wires from the wall of the stove (about 3 to 4 inches).

I than unscrewed the right and left wire attached to the element with the nut driver. (This old element was attached with small nut screws. The new one has screws that use a screw driver). Keeping the wires apart, I removed the old element and replace it with the new element part.

In replacing the new element, facing the stove I connected the black wires to the left side (my left hand) and the white wire to the right side (my right hand) with the new screws using a screw driver. REMEMBER TO REPLACE THE WIRES BACK THE WAY THEY CAME OFF WHEN THE STOVE WAS WORKING PROPERTLY. Attach the element back to the stove and turn the breaker on. Easy to do job.

removed 2 screws that hold the element in place, then pulled element out took 2 more screws out and reversed proc. I couldn't have had a better rep to help me find the right part. Thank you

I had a friend of mine who came to my home equipped with screwdrivers and flashlight. After turning off the electricity at the fuse box he removed the oven door (for easier access),removed the screws,pulled out the existing element far enough to disconnect the wires, placed the new one into place, connected the wires, screwed the new one into place
turned the power back on, turned on the oven and after about 15 seconds, the element began to turn from a dark gray to a light color beginning to turn orange.

I was able to slide the stove out from the wall, so it was easier to remove the back cover and disconnect the wiring in back rather than trying to reach into the oven. Then all I had to do was put in the new coil, reconnect the wires and slide the stove back into place.

Firstly a big thanks to Parts Select.com I order the part on a Monday and it was delivered on the Wednesday of the same week!

Firstly I pulled the stove out of the space between the counter tops. Next I unplugged the stove. I opened the oven door unscrewed the two screws holding the element onto the back of the oven. Next I unscrewed the two screws that fastened the wires onto the two ends of the element. The element was then able to be removed from the oven. I then fitted the new element by repeating the same procedures to take the element out. The whole process took me less than 15 minutes.

Unplugged unit.
Removed two screws with nut driver.
Bake element easily disconnected.
