The old element toasted. Burned-up completely.
I shut the breaker off at the main power box.
In the oven, I loosened two screws to remove the old element (parts now, after the burn-out). I pulled the old element out of the back wall of the oven to expose the wire connections. I detached the simple sliding wire connectors. Done with removal. I waited for the new element to arrive (one week). Installed easily. Turned on the breaker and baked a few potatoes. Very simple.

The bake element sparked then burned up
This is the second time I have replaced the bake element. It looks like 8 years is about as long as they last under normal use. The repair was simple; remove 2 screws, pull the bake element out, disconnect the wire connected to each end of the bake element, then reverse the process to reinstall.

Oven wouldn't heat due to a burned out bake element
This was a snap. It took me longer to find the right part number than it did to make the repair. After securing power to the oven, I removed the racks. I then unscrewed the element supports and pulled the element out slightly to expose the connectors. Using a pliers I removed the connector from each side of the element. At this point, I should have placed a piece of electrical tape to prevent the connector leads from slipping back into the body of the oven. Instead, I fished them out with a tweezer, and slid the connectors back onto each side of the element. I then screwed in the elements supports, replaced the oven racks, and restored the power. It literally took less than 10 minutes.

Heating element burnt out.
Super simple. My husband ordered the part. It arrived in 3 days. The old element plugs right into cables on both sides of the back of the oven and are secured to the rear wall with screws. I unscrewed the plates, detached the wires on each side and slid the new ones in place. It was that easy and took me about 10 minutes.
