RF366BXDN1 Whirlpool Range - Instructions

replaced light socket but did not repair problem. must have burned the motherboard.


pleased with service from your company.

We have had our Whirlpool oven for 22 years and became very concerned that a part would not be available. We were thrilled to find the part as well as install the new part ourselves. With a screw driver, we disconnected the old baking element ( be sure to shut the power while doing this) and screwed in the new one. That simple!!!

The hardest part was figuring which breaker controlled the oven because it wasn't marked in my breaker box (it IS now!). So, first I killed all power to the stove, then unscrewed the 2 screws in the back of the oven holding the element. Pulled the element forward, then dissconnected the 2 clampy connector wires (yes, I'm a girl, no correct electrical jargon here). These were a little difficult because my oven is 21 years old & this is the first replacement I've had to do. I reconnected the new element clamps(which was easier), pushed the wires back through the opening & reinserted the screws. Threw the breaker back on, turned on oven to 200 degrees & let heat until the set temperature light turned off as a test. Voila - oven fixed!

Turned off the breaker to the stove. Removed the two screws holding the element in place. Pulled off the wire terminals, removed old element. Reconnected the two wires, slid new element into place, reinserted the two holding screws, turned back on breaker. 5 minutes.

I had no instructions, so I started by removing the two screws that seemed to hold the element together. I pulled the element forward and realized I had to seperate the element from the wires. It was an old unit so it took a strong tug but it did come apart. I was hoping at this point I was doing the right thing...I reconnected the new element , pushed it back in and replaced the screws. I was very impressed with myself! The new element heated up in no time. Yeah me!
Thank you "Part Select" for making it possible.

I ordered part from Part Select, which literally arrived in 2 days. I unscrewed the two (2) screws holding the old bake element in the oven. Pulled out the element and detached the wires connected to the element, which was easily done without any tools. Attached those wires (again easily by hand with no tools) to the new bake element and screwed the two (2) screws back in. The whole process including ordering the part online, unpacking the box and installing took 15 minutes. Wonderful and in time for my wife and daughter to bake Christmas cookies!

I order the part on 7/29 and much to my surprise, it arrived the very next day. It took less than 15 minutes to remove the old element and installed the new one. It was a little difficult to unplug the old one and took quite a bit of pulling but it came out okay. Plugging in the new one and screwing on the cover plate was easy.

simply removed screws & old part.., replcd new part & screwed back into place.

Screwed in light bulb and glass protector

It was so easy. I removed the baking racks. Then I unscrewed two Philips head screws that held the rack in place. Then I pulled the two connections apart from the wiring. Plugged the new element into the wiring. It was as simple as sliding it in and out, replaced the screws, and within minutes I was back to baking again.

unplugged oven unscrewed old element replaced with new one plugged in oven it only took 2 days to get new element saved time and gas

Could not believe that the part was here the next day! Install was simple,just connect the wires and screw it in.

I unscrewed the two screws holding the element in place and disconnected the two wires. Removed the element from the oven and replaced with the new one. Plugged in the two wires and replaced the two screws that secures the element to the back of the oven. Turned on the oven to test and turned back off when satisfied everything was O.K. Easy job.

Removed 2 screws on heating element mount plate. Pulled out heating element 3 inches and used needle nose pliers to remove the 2 connector clips. Reconnected connector clips by hand to new heating element. Put heating plate back into original position and reinstalled 2 mount screws.

Funny, I suppose. We decided to buy a new stove given the old age of the old one. Problem is, on delivery day it wasn't delivered and we discovered that there wasn't even one in the warehouse. At that point we got ticked and decided to look into the problem. The website led us right to the problem. We ordered, the part arrived the next day and the replacement was simple. Just unscrew the holder inside the over, unplug the old element and plug in the new. I needed needle nose pliers because one of the wires slipped behind the insulation. We also bought a thermometer and found that the calabration was right on the money. Happy campers... we saved $400.
