Hi, I wanted to find out how to replace the element in my oven? It cracked and broke in half while I was using it and my neighbor said I could probably handle replacing it myself. Would you advise this? I’m not sure if it’s something I could do or not. Any help would be appreciated!

Hello Andrea,
Replacing the element in the oven is fairly simple. First you will want to unplug the range. Next you will open the oven door and remove the racks to ease the removal and installation of the element. The element is held in place by 2 screws at the back wall of the oven cavity. Once you remove the screws, you can gently pull the element out to gain access to the wiring. The wires have flat terminals and will slide off of the element terminals (use caution to not allow the wires to go back inside the hole that they came out of. If this happens you will have to access the back of the range to get to wires). Once the old element is out, follow the given instructions in reverse order to install the new element. Hopefully this helps you!
