The Baking Element won't heat to bake.
I had the problem before and had to call in a Tech to repair the baking element in my oven. It cost me $150.00 for the repair. This time I decided to do the repair myself, so I went online and found this site The instruction video made it very easy. I am very proud of what I was able to do without calling a Tech. My oven works like new, It only cost less than $40.00 for the total repair. I am so glad this site were there when I needed them.. Thanks a Lot..

replace broken bake element
Unplugged the range. Took our the oven shelves. Unscrewed the bars holding the broken bake element to the back of the oven wall. Gently pulled out the wiring to which the bake element is attached. Slipped the ends of the broken bake element off the ending on the wiring. Then slipped the ends of the new bake element over the ends on the wiring. Then pushed the wiring with attached bake element back into their position behind the oven wall and attached the bars holding the bake element to the back of the oven wall. This is really easy because it is exactly like the on-line video, for I am a 75 year old female with little technical experience.

lens light was broken and missing.
Removed the cooktop using screwdriver. Pushed lens-light into cooktop hole.It was difficult to do and was where I spent most of my time. Next time I will spray bottom of lens- light with silicon so it goes in easier. I stood cooktop up on its side and inserted the red light assembly onto the lens-light. Reinstalled cooktop
and turned electrical power on.
and turned electrical power on.
