Step 1, turn off circuit breaker, verify no power at the back of oven

Step 2, remove oven from wall/housing by removing 4 mounting screws, 2 on each side, just on the inside after opening the oven door...this was the most difficult part doing the repair on my own as the oven is a bit heavy...I was fortunate to have a old Workmate 425 work bench that folds/collapses, this allowed me to slide the oven out and drop down about 2 inches...reinstalling the oven I did have to use 2x4s to shim the oven level to slide it back in, with someone to assist this would not be necessary.

Unplugged the Range and removed the two screws holding down the cook top. You do not need to remove the vent chamber at the rear of the range since the top lifts up about 4 inches. This should be enough room to get your hand onto the plug going to the door switch. Pull off the plug and remove the swich. Pop in the new one, put on the plug, reinstall the two screws and you are done!

Read the thread on "burnt smell" and DO NOT assume it is a burned out element. Follow your nose!!

Removed screws from front of oven, placed a table under oven 2” below, places two rollers on table and pulled out the oven. Removed screws, replaced fan and reassembled. Move into place and secured front. Cleared faults and worked perfectly.

Opened the screws holding the handle of the door, then insert the new glass and retighten the screws holding the handle back in place.

Remove oven light lens cover, remove the bulb and replace it with a new one.

Changed the Temperature Sensor as you suggested, but the problem of 40 minutes to reach a temperature of 375 degrees F. remained the same.
