RRE2700-2 Whirlpool Range - Overview

I removed (2) mounting screws from the back of the oven and pulled the element out far enough to access the terminal lugs. I unplugged the old element and plugged in the new element. I also replaced the old mounting screws w/new hardware and replaced one of the terminal lugs on a damaged wire. I went ahead and replaced the broiler element at the same time (also only 2 screws on the top of the oven) although there was no indication of a problem. The process was very easy although I caution non-electrically skilled people to insure the power is off at the breaker panel when performing this work and, if the electrical wires are damaged, seek qualified assistance to repair them.

We turned off the power to the unit, removed the old element and secured the wireswith electrical tape to keep them from going back into the insulation at the back of the stove. We ordered a replacement part. After turning off the power to the stove again, we inserted the element and screwed in the brackets. The element worked GREAT! It saved us having to buy a new stove for the rental unit. Thanks, PartSelect!!

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. Reconnected the two wires to the new element, pushed them back into place and replaced the screws. Simple. Turned on oven to test.
