CRE7500ADW Maytag Range - Instructions

Two screws out, the old bake element came out easily, was able to disconnect very easily from the clip wiring, then replaced with new. I even was able to replace the oven light bulb at the same time. A real cinch.

First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires...)

First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires, at that point I attempted to reconnect the two wires, that is when I found out why they tell you to unplug the electricity. It wasn't a big shock, more of a consistant shock. Once I unpluged the stove from the wall, it only took about 3 minutes or so to connect the wires and replace the two screws. I have no doubt I saved a hundred dollars doing this myself.
Thank you for your prompt delivery on the replacement part for my Bake Element at what I felt was a very reasonable price.

A little background story: One day after cooking up some chicken I noticed a bright blue light coming from the bake element. I turned off the oven, but the blue light remained and was getting brighter. Come to find out the bake element had more or less welded itself in half and what I saw was electricity arcing between the two halves of the baking element. I had to unplug the range to stop the arc. Luckily fixing it was as easy as unscrewing the old one (held in with one philips screw on each side), popping the connected wires off (they just slide on and off of connecting tabs), and doing the reverse for installation. Super easy job.

I unplugged the oven, sat the flash light in the oven and removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I pulled the element out and diconnected the two metal wire clasps from the element. Connected the new element, made sure the clasps were secured. Slid the wires back in and replaced the screws. Tested the oven, it heats up to correct temperature. I am a women and it was real easy thanks to the other repair stories I read.

Power off by unplugging appliance!
Remove the old element by removing one screw from each of the old element anchoring tabs.
Pull element away from back of oven approx. 3 inches to expose spade lug electrical connectors.
With the pliers, gently seperate the spade connector from the element connecting tab.
Remove old element.
Install new element in reverse order.
Plug appliance in, set oven to warm/low heat to test and burn off any metal preserveative from elemnt surface.
Check operation by allowing to heat for < 30 seconds. Oven element should start to warm and can be confirmed by breifly placing hand a few inches away from element to detect heat.
Turn oven off if satisfactory. Reset time on oven clock. Finis!!!!

unscrew 2 screws, pull 2 connectors off, put in new part in reverse order - easy fix.

I watched the video provided by Part Select before I ordered the part. I removed the old element by taking out two screws and unplugging it from the wires. I put the new element in place, connected the wire to the right side and then opened up the back of the range to connect the left side. The repair was easy, but the video did not show that you had to connect the left side from the rear of the appliance. It was easy to figure out. The appliance works like a charm...no like an oven.

We repalced the heating element n no time. Easy to do and the price couldn't be beat!

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.

The previous repair stories were extremely helpful! The most difficult part was unhooking the old element and I assume some of that was contributed by it's age. Installing was a piece of cake!
