CGEF3042KFG Frigidaire Range - Instructions

Unscrew two very visible screws located in the back of the oven holding in the panel. Remove panel. Install new panel. Replace screws. Could have used new screws but didn’t have any.

I Removed the backing and then I removed the 4 screws holding the controller , opening the new one and placing the face plate on it , I then proceeded to place the new one into place . I then removed one wire at a time from old old to new one . Replace the back and turned power on . Really super easy !!!

Started with trying to take the door off for easier access to heating element.

I ended up lifting the door off and the front glass shattered and I sliced my hand open.

Ended up buying a new oven/range.

Followed the parts select video. However there were differences. Four screws to release stovetop from brackets very difficult to break free even once correct bit identified. No spring clips but studded screw and coil springs let elements fall right off underside bracket. Need fours hands to hold back in place to screw bracket back in place to hold elements.

Called fridgidaire and they told me the a F31 code means my temperature sensor is not working.
So I ordered one online. I installed it and I still have F31 code and still won't work. So what now? Do I trust them to tell me another part?

replaced it

Watching the video showed an easy, unscrew and screw back on process while connecting the wires back. It was really that simple. Once it was complete (not even 10mins), plugged it back in, and its been working great since.

Took 3 panels off to get to the electric block. Replaced electrical block and put it back together. Still no change.

Easy as 1-2-3

UNPLUG OVEN, removed back panel with screw driver, disconnected two wiring harnesses from clock/timer, removed old clock/timer with screw driver, carefully peel old face panel off clock/timer and stick on new part, install new part with screws hook up wiring harness that is OK---Next part requires some electrical tools, skills. The wiring harness for the oven part had a burned connector to the oven element, snip the burned connector off and replace with a new connector, this part will now be separate from original wiring harness. Replace rest of wiring harness, then plug in new connecter, secure this wire to the others with electrical tape or cable tie to ensure it stays put. Replace back panel. (The other option is to completely replace wiring harness.)

Really a no brainer, but I do have to say that PartSelect customer service is excellent. My part was located and on it's way within a day and arrived a couple of days later.

Removed broken element, four screws. Element ends were attached to the oven via wire clips. Removed those too. Placed clips on the ends of the new element and remounted to the top of the oven enclosure with the fours screens. Took twenty to twenty five minutes. We had Tbones a little while later. Saved over 125.00 for repairman.

Pulled the range out, unplugged it, removed upper back panel, inserted lens through front of control panel, slid the notch on the actual light onto the lip on the back of the plastic lens. Done!

Unscrewed the old element (2) screws, then unscrewed the (2) brackets holding the element up, pulled the element out of the back wall of the oven unhooked the (2) electrical wires and left them hanging. Installation is in the exact reverse order.

Remove back cover located and replace probe by unplugging wire and removing one 1/4 screw with nut driver replace probe by plugging one wire and one screw. Remove the timer by unplugging two plugs and removing four 1/4 screws remove decal from old timer and place it on the new one replace the timer by replacing four screws plug in the wires replace the cover you're done. (Note) be sure to unplug the main power to the oven before you start.
