Oven would not reach desired temperature
I followed all the steps outlined in the video provided by this site. However when it was time to fasten the element bracket to the base of the oven, not the back, I had to force the element toward the back of the compartment so the holes in the element bracket would line up with the holes in the base of the oven. I was hesitate to do t his but Customer Service assured me I had the right replacement part. I have a feeling the bends in the element resulted in a radius that was too great causing the bracket to be about .75" too far forward. Otherwise the installation was not too difficult. I would suggest anyone trying to keep the wire/connector from receding from the compartment to us forceps to hold them while you connect the element to the wires. The folks were very helpful through the process and we saved about $150 to $200 on the repair.

Oven not heating above 200 degrees
Removed power plug from oven; took racks out of oven, removed two screws in back of oven to remove panel that covers the bake element, removed the 3 screws from the baking element and carefully pulled element out of back to ensure I did not disconnect the connections on the bake element. Disconnected the 2 clips from the baking oven with needle nose pliers, took new element reconnected clips on to the new element carefully pushing back through the insulation and replacing the 3 screws for the element then putting the element cover back in oven and inserting the 2 screws. Plugged oven back in and tested element.

bake element shorted out.
removed two screws in the bottom of the oven to remove cover over the element and the three screws that hold the element in place pulled the element out far enough to unplug the two wires.

I heard the lower element "sizzle out" since there was no heat it was obvious the problem
I followed the YouTube video that came with the confirmation email. It was simple. I took a little extra time and pulled out the range an cleaned around it. It took about a half an hour total. If you just do the element it would take 10-15 minutes

Oven clicking to warm up, but wouldnt get hot
Watched the video, opened the bottom of the oven (about 3 screws) and could see that the "bake element" was literally "fried"--It broke up, into pieces, upon touching it...No wonder it wasn't working...We ordered the part from this site, and then, once the part arrived, we watched the video again, and installed the "bake element"--like ma gic. Thanks to this site--amazing really, to do your own repair....We were so proud of ourselves, and with your help, we did it. We (my wife and I ) recommend strongly that you all use this company for your parts and info on how to DIY....Dennis

Oven would not heat up past 195 degrees.
We followed the video instructions on the Maytag website. So easy, the hardest part was propping up the flashlight to get enough light in he oven.
