JKS05GP1 General Electric Wall Oven - Instructions

Turn off breaker to oven from electrical panel, locatge all screws and remove. Use caution when removing element from clips if not replacing the clips. When removing the element, be careful not to damage connecting wires as they do not pull out very far. Be sure to reattach correctly. When replacing the oven seal, be careful not to disconnect the wires to either element as you slide the oven compartment forward after removing screws. It can be difficult to find the wires behind the oven compartment if they disconnect.

I tried to unplug old element without success. Called appliance repair man and he pulled part way out, took hold of place where plugged in with pliers and unplugged. While holding back part of plug he plugged in new element--$60.00 later.

The whole job took about 20 min. TURN POWER OFF AT CIRCUIT BREAKER!! Remove 4 screws from the convection cover, then 2 more holding in the broiler element, disconnect 2 wires, and connect to the new one. put the screws back in, the cover back on the convection element and you are done!

Just like the other responses described with two additional steps: 1) with a convection oven you have to remove the fan cover. It has four screws, the same size as the broiler element screws....but, get a piece of stiff cardboard the same width as the oven; put it all the way back, under the fan cover. There are holes in the oven bottom and your screws really want to roll into those holes and disappear; the cardboard will cover the holes. 2) as soon as you disconnect the element from the electrical wires....put a twist tie or other clamp on each wire as they want to fall back in behind the oven and you'll end up having to remove the build oven to get at the wires. The twist tie should keep them from falling out of reach.

Make sure the oven is turned off. Simply remove the metal cover over the convection fan. Remove the two (2) oven element screws holding it to the oven wall. Disconnect the two wire leads. Connect the new element to the leads and reverse process to attach the new element to oven back wall and install the convection fan cover.

After turning off power, I removed the two screws and pulled the element and wires out, removed the wires and then attached them to the new element and replaced the screws. However, this did NOT correct the problem. The broiler did not work until I tried several times turning it on and off. It then worked once but then did not. It worked once more after several tries. I then called a repairman suspecting the control board. He confirmed this and tested the old element which was in good working order after all. A new board has been ordered.

ordered part came in noticed i had to make ajustments to new heating element took socket set and unscrewed four screws put a retainer on the wires that came out of the wall to make sure they didn't go back into the wall and would be unretrieveable. installed new screws and cover plate and turned on the oven all done works perfectly.
