My 20+ year old bake element cracked
I turned off the power at the breaker for the oven. I had to use a small wrench to get off the two screws keeping the bake element in the oven.
I pulled it out a bit and exposed where the element screws into the power.
To prevent the wires from receding back into the wall after I unscrewed them, I taped them to the inside of the oven.
After removing the old element, I just installed the new one the same way. Screwed it into the power, and tightened the panel to the back of the oven.
Reset the breaker, and you're good to go.
Took 10 mins tops. It is pretty cramped in there and you need a good flashlight to see what you're doing.

Broken Bake Element in Oven
Unscrewed face plate, unscrewed electric wires hooked to element. Cleaned out oven while I was in there...nice and clean now. Installed new element same way I took it out. Easy as 'pie'..which we'll be baking again now that the oven works.

burned out bake element
The repair was a snap! Unscrew the two small bolts holding the back of the element in place. Pull out the element so that the connectors and wires are accessible. Unscrew the two wires from the element. Remove old element. Place new element in oven. Attach the two wires to the new element (two screws), place the new element in position and replace the two small bolts that were removed at the beginning. All done. Best thing? This is a 20 year old oven, GE didn't even have the part I needed. You did! Thanks.

Bake Element Burned Out
It is simple.
Cut off the power. Remove racks. Remove burned out element and replace with new one.
Replace racks and turn on the power. Set the clock.
I've done this about 5 times and now keep a spare element.

The broiler element had been broken for some time.
The stove was new when we moved into our new home but opted to leave "our" stove in the basement until the one that came with the house had seen it's better days. The removal of the original element required the use an allen type of driver - it's removal was simple and the new element popped-into place without a problem and I refastened with the screws that came with the new element. The part arrived from PartSelect right on time, in good condition, and I would definitely do business with PartSelect again when I need to! My only complaint has nothing to do with PartSelect, it is the angle one must assume to refasten the part into place! Thank you, and I'll be back!
