Original burner cap was chipping; must have been dropped somewhere along the line.
New burner cap replaced old; just placed over burner; no tools required.

One suggestion: burner cap should have been shipped with thicker bubble protection (easy to do). It was minimally wrapped and placed in a thin, bubble envelope, risking damage in shipping process. Luckily, the burner arrived in tact and usable.

Burner Cap - 15K

Cut the wires to remove it from the back of the oven. 3 screws to remove the back cover. Un-clipped old igniter , pushed new one through the hole (from inside the oven). Connected and re-applied screws. Worked like a charm.

Front right burner would not light.
After calling a appliance repair person out because I could not find the module, he pulled the range out so he could remove the top, back cover. He used the correct nut-driver to remove the back. The module is attached to the cover and is exposed when you take it off. Just gently pry the module from the cover. When I saw where it was I paid the repair person for his visit and ordered the new module from PartSelect.com. When it arrived I proceeded to install the new module. I had to use pliers to grasp each connector going into the module and use a flat bladed screwdriver between the module and pliers to get each one to release. I took one wire off at a time and inserted each one into the new module, corresponding to the place it came out of the old module. When I had all the wires inserted into the new module I pushed the new module, using a flat bladed screwdriver, back onto the back cover of the stove. Reattached the back cover with the metal screws and pushed the range back into place. All burners are lighting as designed.

Oven Light Assembly damaged
I have a double oven and coincidently I had to replace the two Oven Light Assemblies.
I am really glad about your web site because once I got the number from my oven model you guys were the first ones that came up. Thanks to your prompt and reliable service my oven is back to its original state.

Large burner cap finish was damaged
Just lifted old burner off with my fingers and replaced with the new one. What needs to be focused on here is the fact that Part Select has such a complete line of parts rather than the difficulty in the install.
