RB160PXYQ5 Whirlpool Wall Oven - Instructions

very easy

I pulled down the wire around the glass cover. . . Released on end of the wire from its holder being careful to not let the glass cover drop. Unscrewed the bulb and replaced with replacement. Easy, easy.

The element comes with the element attached to the bracket that holds it in place in the top of the oven. I had removed the 2 screws-one on each side--on the old element and disconnected the spade connections on the wiring after I pulled the element out far enough to expose them. I then reconnected the new element, pushed it back into place and re-installed the screws that hold it in place. A pretty simple job but I got a tremendous feeling of accomplishment after it was done. Saved a bunch of $$$ also!!

I oedered a new unit matched with the Model Number! Installed .It did not work.They said Part amybe defectice.They quickly sent out another.That was installed and did not work.I contacted them again and they sugessted the Modular unit that regulated the Heat Temp. They were discontinued. They suggested I contact Corecentic Solution.com which I did.I am now in the process of shipping out my Modular Element to have it rebuilt. My stove is over 20 Yrs old .It inly costs me $110.00 to fix ourselves. Thank YouParts Select.com. You saved me over $1700.00 It would have cost to buy a new stove. They also gave me a full refund on the two units they shipped out. They are a wonderful helpful Company and will take care of your parts needs. Thanks Again Joyce

First removed the oven door for easy access, removed two screws holding the element pulled old Element from back of oven to expose two connecting wires, disconnected wires and removed old Element. Connected wires to new Element pushed Element back into place and replaced two mounting screws put oven door back on, took about ten minutes. Very Easy!

The only problem we had was hanging on to the small screws that held the element up. No power screw drivers, so it took a little while to keep a hold of those screws. Considering we are 87 and 84 we feel great that we were able to replace both the bottom element and the broiler. I like the stove, and preferred not to shop for a new one.

Unplugged the range, took the bad element out, and inserted the new one. Plugged the range back in. It worked fine....

First, turn off the breaker to the oven, then turn off the service disconnect to the whoe house. I play safe.) Open the door, pull out the oven racks to allow space. Using a Phillips screw driver, unscrew the screws near the front of the oven to loosen the element. Using both hands, pull the element straight out of the holes in the back of the oven, where you will find electric wires attached to them. Pull the ends of the element off the wire connectors. Throw it away. Get you new element, attach the element ends to the connectors. Raise it up to the top of the oven and screw the screws back in to the holes in the top of the oven. You are finished. (The only reason this took me 30 minutes is because I am an old 79 year old granny and can't bend so well, or see so well. I had to use a little acrylic paint on my finger tips to mark the screw holes, it was taking too long to find them the old way, by feel.) GG

Four screws hold the broiler element. I removed the two at the top, then removed the two screwed to the back keeping the element in place. I slowly pulled the element forward and used alligator clips to keep the wire connectors from falling back behind the oven. I disconnected the wires from the broken element and replaced it with the new element. I removed the alligator clips. I screwed the two screws on the back and the two on top and I was finished. Problem solved.

Removed the light cover - unscrew the bulb - place the gasket on the base of the light cover - replace the bulb - replace the light cover

Unscrewed 4 screws holding element. Disengaged one wire, but 2nd one was separated while pulling through rear wall. Could not grasp the wire from the front. Then unscrewed 4 screws along sides of oven to pull casing away from wall cavity. Sat oven on a box while unscrewing 12 rear panel screws. Pulled wire through from back into oven. (Didn't need to do this because new element extended through the rear wall to access from back. Could have reattached wires to new element from the rear, but didn't realize this soon enough.)....two days later reinstalled new broiler element reattaching wires inside the oven and replacing 4 screws holding element in the oven. To replace the back panel I had to lay oven on its face so the holes on back of would fit with the rear panel. Put 12 screws back on. Then pushed oven back into wall cavity and put 4 screws holding oven in place. It is now working!

FIRST: I Shut off the circuit breaker to the oven. Then: 1. Removed convection-fan cover (it was partially blocking the bake-element screws). 2. Unscrewed 2 bake-element screws. 3. Pulled old bake element forward to expose connectors. 4. Disconnected both connectors and discarded the old element. 5.Connected the new element and pushed it in so that plate was flush against the back of the oven. 6. Re-installed the 2 element screws. 7. Re-installed convection-fan cover. LASTLY: Turned on the circuit breaker to the oven and baked a cake! IMPORTANT: The original screws can be very, very tight. When removing them, be sure to use a socket wrench or other tool that gets a firm grip on the hex heads, or you could round the corners of the heads, permanently damaging the screws.

I went to the source of power on the stove and noticed one of the terminals had come loose from the terminal block and had shorted out against the cover of the terminal junction. After prying the loose terminal off cover I ordered new terminal block and received it the 2nd day. I removed the old terminal block and replaced the part in about 10 minutes..Thank you Parts Select for your easy to find diagrams and quick delivery.

I very simply replaced the gasket where it belonged and I was good to go!

This is a built-in oven, so the biggest problem was figuring out how to remove it from the cabinet. The solution turned out to be removing the cooktop above it and unscrewing two screws that connected the oven to the inside of the cabinet. The other problem was removing BOTH metal backs from the oven. The first one was easy. The second one wasn't. The old socket was recessed behind the second back, making it virtually impossible to access the metal "wings" that hold it in place, so I ended up pulling out the socket assembly from inside the oven with pliers.
