bake element burned into
Used screwdriver to unfasten the old element from the oven frame. Then unplugged the two wire plugs from the back of the old element. Reversed the process to install the new. Couldn't have been any simpler.

The lower bake element did not heat up
First I made sure it was in fact the lower bake element that was broken. I turned the oven on & noted the element did not glow red. I also used a laser thermometer to verify the element was at "room temperature" for the room it was in (the oven - about 200 degrees, given what the upper bake element was contributing.)
And close visual inspection showed that a section of te bake element had melted thru where something had recently spilled onto it.
Swapping it out was easy - turn off the electrical breaker controlling the oven, unscrew the bake element, disconnect the electrical contacts to it (which required pliers, since they had been on a Looong time, and a little care to not use the pliers too hard & thus break the wires or contacts), then reverse the process to install the new element.
It works great now.

Electric Oven burner element burned out.....
Made sure that "Breaker" for oven is in the off positon.
Opened oven door to the first "stay open" position...lifted door straight up...and off of the hinges....which removes the door....and allows easier access to oven.
Removed oven racks
Removed two philips head
Pulled burned out element toward the front of the oven.....exposing the two connector wires.
Used pliers to pull wire connectors from burner element connectors.
Reversed the order of this process....to install new element.

Oven wouldn't heat. Bake element burned out.
I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires. It was that easy. But the people at PartSelect.com were the ones that made it easy; easy ordering and prompt shipment. I got he part in approximately three days. Thanks PartSelect.com. You made me and my wife very happy. We didn't think we were going to have the use of an oven for Christmas. You came through for us.

Bake Element Burnt In Half
I removed the two screws that hold the element in place and then I pulled the element out and slid off the contacs and it was disconnected in less than two minutes. When it arrived I installed the new one the same way in less than 2 or 3 minutes and while I waited for thepart to arrive I got a chance to clean my oven and so all is well, I am very pleased with my purchase. It is just that easy and I am happily baking again. Thanks, j. Cale, morrow ga.

Lower element would not heat
Removed the retaining plate screws (Phillips), pulled out the element enough to disconnect the wires, disconnected the wires. Installation was the reverse.
btw, PartSelect shipping was phenomenally fast. I ordered this part on Saturday and it was at my door at noon on Tuesday!! Holy Moly...

faulty heat element
First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place with a 2' Phillips Head. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires, with nose pliers, since they were semi-hard to remove the male from the female terminals.
I placed the order over the computer and it arrived in 2 days.
I was very pleased with PART SELECT.
