REC406DW0 Kelvinator Range - Instructions

The meltdown was a spectacular event. After clearing the kitchen of smoke and allowing the oven to cool down. I easily removed the remnents of the old element by removing the screws holding each side in place and disconnected the two wires. I then insulated the hot side wire (red) to prevent the possibility of a short when resetting the breaker in order to use the stove top. The next day I found PartSelect.com and ordered the very reasonably priced new part with optional overnight shipping. it arrived at 1:00 pm the following day. Installation was a simple reverse of the removal. The oven works great and I now keep a fire extinguisher in my kitchen.

The element pulls out easily and slides right back in and the drip bowls just lift in and out. TaDa !!

Watching the video showed an easy, unscrew and screw back on process while connecting the wires back. It was really that simple. Once it was complete (not even 10mins), plugged it back in, and its been working great since.

First I removed the 2 screws on each side of the element and then pulled the element out, disconnected the 2 wires that were holding the element, got the new element and connected it to the wires, slid back into position, put the screws back in that hold the element and put the racks back in and turned on for test. It was so easy I had it done before my husband arrived home from work.

Took the back panel off. Removed the 2 screws from the old element,removed it. Put the new one in and replaced the screws. Put the back panel on done. What took the longest was cleaning behind there !!

unplug old baking element using socket tool and put in new baking element - very simple and it works!

Removed the 2 element holding screws, disconnected the element leads & remover element. Replaced with new element.
All in all a real easy job (wish all repairs went this easy)
PartSelect had the element at the house within a couple days (Correct part I might add) which made the wife happy !!

I just had to plug the new burner plate in the receptical
and it works again very well.

Removed 2 rear screws. Pulled out element. Popped out 2 wire clips. Replaced old element with the new one and attached wire clips. A caveman could do it.

Unplugged stove, use nutdriver, removed screws, pulled out old element, put in new one. Done. As prescribed. Excellent help as well as got part the next business day.

I used this site self diagnostic page and ordered the oven heating element as that was the item suggested for repairs. It was the correct part to fix my oven problem. I had my electrician visiting to install two light fixtures so I had him install the new heating element in the oven. Even with him going to the garage to turn the circuit breaker off for the range the installation took less than 5 minutes.
This site is the greatest!

Even though my exact model was not matched by Parts Select the bake element shown in a picture for a different model was correct. The length the bake element protruded through the wall of the oven was the same as the old one. The element arrived within two days, packaged so it would not be damaged en transit.

The problem was that there was heat in the oven but only a little. This threw me off at first but my wife tells me that the broiler element is used as the oven heats up. So bottom line is, the main element was burned out and once I replaced it, everything worked fine.

Read the reviews and followed the same procedure. Very east..took about 10-15 minutes.
Product shipped same day/next day it was delivered and it was installed less than 30 hours after it was ordered.
Exceptional service.

First, I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I pulled out the element about 2 inches, and then I wasn't sure what to do, so I called my son and he finished the project in about 5 minutes or less. He pulled off the wires and then put the new element in place, slipped the wires on the new element, then pushed it back into the holes and screwed the screws back in. Worked great.
