Vintage Oven Element stp working
Tried contacting GE and no luck, they did not have vintage parts. After searching and locating Partselect, I was able to see a pic of the actual replacement part. I wasn't sure about purchasing online (1st timer) but decided to go for it!

I was able to track the package, although FedEX was setup to deliver to my resdient, I had the package addressed to my office but we worked that out also and walla.

I was very please and now I can bake my famous Pot Roast again. The oven was not working for 8 mos.

Good Eaten!

The bake element had cracks in it and was almost burned through in a couple of spots.
I ordered the bake element on Monday and received it on Wednesday. Great delivery.

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...
Then I installed the new element using the steps above in reverse. Very clean and simple. One tip though...open your oven door slightly to the detent and pull straight up. The door slips off easily and allows easy access to the bake element screws.

heating element not working
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. I reattached them to the new element screwed it back in place and I was done. Could not have been easier! Getting the right replacement part the next day after placing the order was a pleasant surprise. This is the second time I used your company and I am very impressed with your service. I recommend you to everyone I can. Great Job!

Oven was taking extremely long time to heat and bake.
Turn off the breaker. Unscrew the element. Remove and replace with new element. Screw it back into place. Turn on the breaker.

That simple, that easy.

bottom heating element replaced
First I removed the two screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 2 inches and disconnected the two wires.

I reconnected the two wires to the new element and screwed the new element to the wall of the oven where the element was held in place.

Old surface burner burned out one of its two circuits.
I unscrewed the old burner from the stove, took off the three wire to the heating element marking down where each colored wire went, taped off the exposed wires, ordered the new burner, and waited for it to arrive. When it got here, I installed it, and believe it or not, the new burner works just fine!. End of exciting repair story.

Bake Element Broke due to age
Repair was easy.
Note: the element leads have a potential across them,
so unplug the unit or you'll have an arc strike.

I liked the selection method at PartsSelect.com.
Finding the replacement part was easy from the pictures.
The prices were reasonable.

The part came next day, which was a surprise.
Removal and Installation was 4 screws.
I have become a DIY hero.

Only downside was going out for dinner every night ended.
This site is now a Favorite.

elements were burned out
Removed the elements from the stove and disconnected the wires. Reconnected wires to the new elements and reinstalled in the stove. I was very impressed with the delivery time. I ordered online at 3:00 PM and the parts were at my door at 9:00 AM the next morning. Greatest service I ever had from anyone! I am 250 miles from the warehouse.

burner started sparking and burned right through the coil
Took the old part off and marked the wiring for easy replacing and looked all over town and no part to match, so I went to the Internet and put in 8" burner and luckily found your website. The part was perfect and saved me alot of time doing more research for the part. Thank you for the quick shipment and good correspondence.

I will definitely use you again for parts and tell my friends about your website too.

Oven would not heat.
First I turned the circuit breaker off, then I removed the two screws with a nut driver, that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires with a straight scewdriver.

Reversed the the above process to install new element.

Oven was 27 years old.

Repaired and operational in less than 15 min.
