911955899 Kenmore Range - Instructions

Used screwdriver to open door and Allen wrench to remove and replace glass.

This repair is really easy unless the trim piece has rusted so badly that it's attached itself to the front door glass. It took a long time and some WD-40 to pry the trim off w/o breaking the glass. REPAIR: Remove the door and lay it on a flat surface. Unscrew the 3 bottom screws w/ small pliers, then unscrew the top two inside door screws w/ a small metric allen wrench. Remove the door trim to get to the last four side trim screws. Once the old trim is out just clean up any residue/rust remaining on the glass, install the new trim and reverse the steps to put the door back together. If the old trim comes off easily it should only take @ 20-30 minutes.

Dear PARTSELECT

My experience with you was spectacular!!!!

The oven broiler burner went out on a Sunday afternoon while my wife was using it to cook for our family dinner. We ordered it that day and it was received, installed, and working on Tuesday afternoon...



How could it be any better?



Thanks

I removed the door from the oven. Then unscrewed all of the screws that hold the outerdoor to the inner. Some posts indicated this would not be necessary but on my model it was. Next, I unscrewed the brackets holding the inner glass to the door & removed the glass, noting the way the original glass was positioned and facing. I installed the replacement glass. The metal frame is stamped with "oven" and an arrow idicating the direction the glass should be facing. Once in, I placed the fiberglass rope back around the glass frame and screwed the inner and outer door back together. Finally, I placed the door back onto the oven. Tools used - cordless drill, star bit, phillips head bit.

I called my dad and he came right over and fixed it. He is a super dad!

-Pull the oven away from the wall and unplug it. -Remove the sheet metal panel on the middle of the back of the oven exposing the electrical connections. -Pull off the wire connections from the broiler element and identify which one goes to which side. Pull apart the connector for the thermostat -Go inside the oven and remove the 2 screws holding the element to the back wall. -Remove the 2 screws holding the element to the top of the oven. -Pull the element out and remove the thermostat, and attach it to the new element bracket. Reinstall everything in the reverse order.

Never did a repair like that. Had to ask store clerk what you call that thing you take off bolts with. But repair went great. Very satisfied. Part arrived very quickly and saved our Christmas dinner. THANK YOU!

Removed old broiler unit and installed new broiler unit. Very easy. We ordered the part on Monday over the internet and got it on Wednesday. Such speedy delivery and way in time for Easter. Thank you. Very impressed. I am keeping this site for any future repairs!

Fit like a glove.

Remove light bail, glass cover held by two nut screws. Pull socket, removed clips in back, replaced wire connectors, placed new socket in, then glass cover and bail. Wire connected in back, cover plate replaced.

For someone who does not do this often, the directiions walked us through it well. Saved big service call. I helped him hold the unit in place and he was able to connect the connections, and it works! But it was awkward to get to.

The age of the system resulted in the cook top being heavily stuck by food-stuff to the range surface. The result was a twisting of the top when breaking it free. It caused the cooktop (a $500+ part) to crack diagonally across the whole surface. Thus ended the quick do-it-yourself process, and out to buy a new range. Parts-select was very good about the return process of the un-used and un-opened burner element.

This repair was quite a bit more difficult then what had been described on the web site. First off, I have a double wall oven that is built in. Sliding it out of the cabinet was difficult and because oven was hard wired, I had to disconnect the actual wiring from the oven back. . Positioning the oven and allowing for it to rest on a support bench was the most difficult part The oven is heavy. Eventually, removing the back and top panels of the oven revealed the sensor connection. I was then able to feed it through the oven and reconnect all the wiring harnesses.. Getting the oven back in the cabinet was equally a challenge. But it did seem to fix the problem with over heating.

The only tool needed was a nutdriver to remove the lamp socket. I needed my head mounted light to see what I was doing, and everything went smoothly from there. Simple job.

Due to my disability, 2 neighbors came over with their tools. It took both of them to take oven door apart to install the new glass. All went well.
