Oven would not heat, but broiler did work. Heating element needed replacing.
The part arrived in less than 2 days. I turned off the main electrical switch to the house. All that had to be done was remove two connecting screws in the back of the oven holding the heating element in place. Then I removed two connecting wires with needle nosed plies. I reversed the process with the new element, turned the power back on, and the element heated up and back in business. This was the easiest I have ever had repairing or replacing anything. The hardest part of this repair was finding a flashlight in my house that had good batteries!! Thank you for such quick and courteous service.

oven not heating on "Bake"
I observed that the lower heating element was attached to the lower rear of the oven by two stainless phillips screws. I removed the screws and gently pulled the element outward. The element came out easily with two large red wires attached (one on each side). I unplugged the wires and extracted the old element. I used this as an opportunity to clean the floor of the oven that was hard to get at with the element in place. I installed the new element by plugging in the two red wires and used the same two stainless screws to reattach.

broil element burned out in my 26 year old wall oven
First, turn off the breaker to the oven, then turn off the service disconnect to the whoe house. I play safe.) Open the door, pull out the oven racks to allow space. Using a Phillips screw driver, unscrew the screws near the front of the oven to loosen the element. Using both hands, pull the element straight out of the holes in the back of the oven, where you will find electric wires attached to them. Pull the ends of the element off the wire connectors. Throw it away. Get you new element, attach the element ends to the connectors. Raise it up to the top of the oven and screw the screws back in to the holes in the top of the oven. You are finished. (The only reason this took me 30 minutes is because I am an old 79 year old granny and can't bend so well, or see so well. I had to use a little acrylic paint on my finger tips to mark the screw holes, it was taking too long to find them the old way, by feel.) GG

broiler was not working
Four screws hold the broiler element. I removed the two at the top, then removed the two screwed to the back keeping the element in place. I slowly pulled the element forward and used alligator clips to keep the wire connectors from falling back behind the oven. I disconnected the wires from the broken element and replaced it with the new element. I removed the alligator clips. I screwed the two screws on the back and the two on top and I was finished. Problem solved.

remove two screws at rear of heat element unit. gently pull element to expose wires connected to heat unit. pull connectors apart on each end (don't let wire slip back into wall hole). connect new unit to wires, insert back into holes and replace screws into back wall of oven. Done... Now that I have done it once, it would now take less than 15 minutes.
