Is the replacement thermostat difficult to install?
For model number KODE500EWH00
Hi Rosalee, thank you for contacting us. If you are looking to replace the high limit thermostat you can replace it yourself. Fully open the door and rotate hinge locks back, partially closed the door and then lift it towards you to remove. Repeat this for bottom oven door. Using screw driver unthread the bottom panel screws to remove. Remove the oven racks. Use the screw driver to unthread the screws securing the wall oven to the cabinet. Lift it carefully out of the cabinet. Disconnect power and grounding wires. Unthread the screws securing the rear access panel. To reach the lower oven thermostat, you will need to remove the cooling fan blower. Unthread the screws securing the access plate. Disconnect the blower power wires. You can remove the component from the rear panel. Unthread its screws. Then remove the mounting screws securing the thermostat. Note the orientation and then disconnect it from the terminals. Install the new thermostat by connecting the terminals and then rethread the mounting screws. Complete the remaining process by following the same instructions backward. We hope that helps!
