Reviews

Very simple repair!
October 17, 2021

Took less than 15 minutes to replace the top oven element from start to finish. And that includes an extra few minutes to break loose the screws that had become very tight over nearly 10 tears of use. Online video was helpful if you're unsure how to proceed. Part fit & works perfectly, we're VERY pleased with this experience!

Exactly as advertized

This item was easier to install than expected. It is useful to have the original product manual before you begin. TURN OFF THE POWER TO THE OVEN BEFORE YOU START. Before you begin, get a good trouble light or similar auxiliary light source in position, because when you disconnect the power to the oven, you will be working in the dark to make your connections. Removing the plate in the back of the oven covering the element electrical connectors is the only tricky part. You need a special No. 2 SQUARE screwdriver head. A Phillips head, Torxx, or a flat blade screwdriver will not work. Once the plate is removed, you will see a hole packed full of insulation. That material will resist your pulling out the old heating element to reveal the electrical connectors. Use a tool such as a screwdriver to gently tease away the insulation around the electrical wire connectors. It's best not to pull out the insulation! After making your new electrical connections, you need to force the new element back into position, and the insulation will resist this. Again, use your screwdriver to gently push the insulation out of the way just enough to position the new element. Replace the 2 square head screws and you're done!
