ACS4250AB Amana Range - Instructions

The repairman that had come had stated that this part is no longer made, but I was able to locate one through PartSelect and was able to replace it with minimal effort.

I removed the three screws that held down the stove glass top surface and had a person hold the stove top up while I removed the two screws which held the autolatch assembly in place. I then swapped the leads from the failed assembly to the new one and replaced the screws which were removed. New assembly tested out fine and oven was able to self-clean again.

Unscrewed all the phillips screws holding the door together. Re-assembly indicates that you want to note exactly how the sides overlap the front and back steel panels, possibly take a cellphone picture before starting. The front and back panel will bend down the bottom attachment metal tabs, misaligning the sides, etc if you replace the glass with the door still on the range. Prob. best to have a second standing by or remove entire door first.

Although this was not a repair I wanted to let you know your service was outstanding and the price quite reasonable. I am very happy to finally have a much needed second rack in my oven that was not there when I purchased my home. Thank You

Very simple fix. I pulled the stove away from the wall and unplugged from outlet. Open the oven door and remove the oven racks. I used a phillips screw driver to remove the 2 screws holding the element and then pulled out. There were 2 wires attached to the element, those just pull off. Just reverse the process with the new element and you are good to go.

Switch off the breaker or unplug.
The screws were in tight so make sure your philips bite is new so you do not strip.
Pulled the element out and held the wires in place with a clothes pin so not to slip back in the stove.
Connect and cooked up pizza for dinner.
Very easy

Removed 2 screws from mounting plate in base element.

Disconnected 2 wires from bake element.

Installed new bake element in reverse.

Removed two screws-put burner in-pit screws back in! Turned over on and it worked!!!

I first killed the power to the oven by switching off the circuit breaker and then unplugging it from the wall. With the oven pulled out, I removed the back cover panel to disconnect the lower (bake) element power leads from the broken element. I removed the two screws on the metal plate that attached the element unit to the oven and removed the whole bake element assembly from the oven. I then inserted the new element assembly into the oven and reattached the screws. The next step was to reattach the power leads to the new element. It was then time to put the back cover panel back on and plug the oven back in. I then pushed the oven back into place and switched the circuit breaker back on. Finally, I tested the new element to see if it operated properly by setting a temperature and observed the temperature on a separate oven thermometer used for baking. Your exploded views of the oven helped me plan and execute this repair. Good feature that would be even better if the resolution was a bit better.

Removed screws on edges of door. Romove front panel. Remove several screws around glass. Replace inner glass and replace screws. A little tricky reinstalling trim around door front.

Ordering the part online was easy. It arrived in a timely manner. I found a terrific video online showing how to install the terminal. It was so easy. Thank you for the great instructional video.

I ordered new racks to see if they weere out of alignment. The new racks fell from its tracks after the broiler was heated. It seems the oven cabinet is expanding with the heat and the rack width does not compensate for that. The new racks did not solve the problem so I do not know what can be done next. Any shelf support would have to be heat resistent. Replacing the oven cabinet is not a good option and no gauantee it wouldn't continue with this stove.

I just replaced the racks with beautiful, new, shiny racks. My wife was very pleased

Had to use wd-40 to get the old part loose (oven is over 15 years old) and used pliers to pull apart from the oven. Replaced with the new part and works great. . . Once I used the wd-40 to loosen, it was super easy.

Unscrewed the 2 screws in the back of the element. Disconnected the unit from the bake of the oven, replaced the two ends of the new element and screwed in the 2 screws. Oven works great! Took less than 5 minutes to complete.
Thank you for the FAST delivery!!

I read up about the repair on the internet and what it entailed, thought I could do it. So followed directions from the internet after looking up Ammana, model number and serial number, and ordered the part from Part Select.com. It arrived two days later, was really impressed with their business handling of it.
I paid particular attention to disconnecting the power and pulling the plug out of the wall as double insurance to not getting electrocuted.
The Installation was quite simple, just pull the old one out and put the new one in. I took note of how the old one came out, and connected the new one in the same fashion, and it works wonderfully, just heated right up. It was a good experience.
