RC8200XKC0 Whirlpool Range - Instructions

just slipped them on

I took out the coils manually by pulling them out with slight pressure. Then I lift the hood by first unscrewing the four screws. I have never done anything like this before just intuitive sense to locate the screws that needed to be loosened. Afterwards I remember placing something underneath like a piece of 2x4 wood block to act as support to hold the hood open so I can work on the coils. The parts I got are exactly the same as those I am replacing so I just copied the connection and voila my electric range is working like new. Well of course before I touched anything, I made sure I turned off the main switch and that nobody switches it back on without my knowledge. Thanks for providing the parts, I just saved myself from buying a $600 electric range.

i read the installation instructions and followed them. first i made sure that each heating element was off. next i carefully removed each one (a total of 4) from it's plug and lifted the worn out drip-bowl up and replaced it with the new one. finally i pluged in (a total of 4) heating elements and turned them on to make sure them were working and they did.

This wasn't much of a repair -- rather a replacement of a simple abused part. At the same time, PartSelect allowed me to order what I needed after two failed attempts to buy replacements that would fit the range. I'll remember PartSelect if we need parts for other older appliances in the rental units.

I took the old wires and plug off and replaced it with the new block it works fine

replaced the drip pans. Fit perfect. No problems

Time was do to the fact that I replaced two elements! I turned off the power to the braker box, unplugged the stove and removed the screw holding the element plug in, removed the part, and cut the wires where they were clean looking (not damaged by smoke or the arch) I then stripped the wire and took the new part and twisted the parts together with the caps and then put the heat shrink on and used the blow dryer on them, attached the part to the bracket and screwed it to the hood of the stove plugged the burner in, plugged in the oven and turned on the power tested it worked, did the same for the next burner and yes mind you I am a woman it was very easy to do.

fours screws for rangetop, two for the switch. The only tricky part was two terminals had swappped places with each other. Looking at the enclosed schematic sent with the switch, a neighbor & I figured out what was wrong. Switched the two leads and done!

Needed new knobs to go on the stove. I only had one left in the original ones for the stove that was bought 27 years ago.

All I had to was fit the knob on the stem of the burner and push on it and turn the knob.

Replace the connector and bracket, spliced the wires, put heat to the schrink wrap and I was done.

I raised the stove top, read the instructions to my son while he did the work, then I lowered the stove top, installed the burner, and it worked like magic.

My stove is well over 15 years. When I bought my house over 7 years ago the stove was ancient and had only 2 knobs. Well, one of the two fell apart and I could not afford to replace the stove. Lo and behold there was a part number on the back of the knob and I did a goggle search and found an identical replacement. The kind they sell at the store, the adjustable ones, did not work. Anyway, I placed the order during the New Year holiday and I got my knobs in 2 days. Beautiful and shiny and best of all I can use all my burners for the first time ever.Thank you

lifted the cover, unscrewed the ceramic wire fastners, put the new part in, and voila, job done and working perfectly

The directions were very clear. I removed the heating element, detached the plug-in block by unscrewing the screw, then cut the wires about 3 inches from the block. I put the shrink-wrap collars around the wires leading to the new block, then attached the wires to the cut ends of the wires leading to the back of the stove, using the connectors provided in the kit. I couldn't get the collars to shrink as much as shown in the picture. I attached the new block to the stove top using the screw, plugged in the heating element, and it worked!
So the instructions were good, and the heating element is now working. The only problem was the heat shrink collars that go around the connectors: I couldn't get them to shrink much, but that doesn't seem to matter.
