Replacing bake element
Undid two screws to pull the element out, and another two to unhook it from the wires. Reverse procedure with the new element and baked some muffins. The hardest part about this repair was getting the part. I typo'd my shipping address and had to knock on a neighbor's door!

Bake element burned out, oven would not get hot
Turned off breaker for oven, removed baking (lower) element, searched website to match up size, shape, and connector-type of replacement part. Placed order and received two days later. Mounted new part in 10 minutes, turned on breaker, and immediately baked fries for children. No problem. Much cheaper and easier than replacing entire built-in oven.

bad bake element
Turned the power off. Loosened two screws to take the element out. Loosened two more srews to disconnect the element itself from the power. This job was easy squeezy. Within 15 minutes flat I was back on the couch watching old Seinfeld reruns. Two thumbs up for the peeps at Part Select.

Old bake element burned out
First, I turned off the power at the breaker box. Then, I removed the 2 screws attaching the bake element to the back wall of the oven. Next, I pulled the element out a few inches and removed the screws holding the element to the wires at the rear of the oven. Finally, I reattached the new element to the wires with the screws and then reattached the element plate to the rear wall of the oven. I turned the power back on at the breaker box, and tried the new element. It worked! Also, shipping was real fast, like 2 days from the time I placed the order to receiving the element.
