Heat element is easy to install
May 11, 2018|Diep, Cincinnati, OH
It was easy to install the heat element in 20 minutes. I have to use the range electric diagram. Removal (and the reassembly) of the top desk is a must. Watch the LED light. It must go off when the heat element is deenergized (It's the user experience.) Thanks.

The total replacement time was less than half an hour. Part was an exact match and easy to install with a minimum of tools. My range was a Maytag Gemini series.

Had to adjust it

The range heating element was different than the original one (which is pictured on this page) with two extra cables that required some figuring out how to use them and then install (easy part).
