62921238 Kenmore Wall Oven - Instructions

First I opened the oven door fully and secured the hinge in an open position by putting a pin in a hole in the hinge to keep it from closing. I used a drill bit as a pin. I removed the one screw from the door side of the hinge on both sides and removed the door. I them removed two screws from the hinge on the oven side. I replaced both hinges at the same time. The part I order was an exact match and now my oven door closes completely and very quietly. This is a very simple job that even a beginner can do.

repair was simple two screws

Checked the element to see if it was open or no
resistance, it was open
e.g. First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires...)

First, I tripped the oven circuit breaker. Then I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. Then I pulled the element out about 5 inches and disconnected the two wires. At first, I had to figure out how the wires would disconnect. Once I removed the heating element, I reversed the procedure, tightened the screws, reset the circuit breaker, and set the oven to bake. The element began to function, and I knew Imy efforts were successful.

It would have been a very easy job if the one wire had not fallen inot the back. I could not reach it and fried to figure out how to get in the back to no avail. Finally I took a piece of wire coat hangerm and bent it and then fished it out. The packing around the hole compressed while I was trying to get the wire and I thought I wpuld have to replace it, but overnight it resumed its original size. It should have probably taken less than thirty minutes.

pulled off the old and pushed on the new. the entire experience was great. would use again in a heart beat!

The hardest part was taking out original light bulb because screws on shield where hard to unscrew after all this years . The old bulb vent out leaving neck in socket. It took narrow electrical pliers to get neck out .The generic appliance bulb did not fit and had aluminum neck ,not recommended for brass sockets in ovens.Putting new light bulb in was not the problem.

The door came off easily after I removed the two hinge covers that are attached to the oven. Taking the door off can be done with one person but ideally two.

The new parts fit in perfectly and the hinge pin used for shipping comes out easiest with a pair or wire cutters (you do not cut it just grab it and pull).

After that, re-assemble the door and drop in place. It was a snap.

FYI...the shipping was ultra fast and the price was great.

No issues whatsover with the entire process.

It was easy to get apart. I drew out a schematic of where the wires were so I could put them back in the same place. I plugged them all back up and it worked! Only problem was, there was a dead mouse behind the panel! He had not chewed anything, so the unit just went out from age.

downloaded instructions from your website on how the part went in the oven, ordered part, and installed when it got here. shut off the breaker (found out it was mis-marked in my breaker box!) undid two screws, pulled off two clamps reinstalled and we were baking by dinner!
thank you!

remove old one and installed new one quick and easy thank you

my wife removed two screws and removed clips with pliers. We ordered part (2 days) it was fast. Installed in less than 5 min. and I only have one arm. We tried to find part locally but with no model # the parts houses could not find it. We found it on your site in less than 10 min. Your graphs and photos made it super easy. Will pass along your site to others. Thanks for being so helpful.

It was worth the money for that little screw, since I didn't have to run all over trying to find the right one.

My husband took the plastic cover off and took out old bulb and screwed in the new one. Then put the cover back on.
