91141059591 Kenmore Wall Oven - Instructions

1-SHUT OFF POWER. You can just unplug if possible, but it may be easier to flip the breaker to kill all power to the unit. 2-Use 1/4 in socket to loosen the two brass screws that hold the bake element into the back of the unit. 3-Gently pull out the wires, and pull the bake element from the wires. 4-Replace bake element and put back together. In all it took me longer to walk to the garage to get/replace my tools than it did to repair the unit. Don't be afraid to do it yourself...especailly cause it'll save you at least 50% on the job. :)

1. Open oven door
2. insert oven racks (perfect fit)
3. close oven door. Done and finished - man am I tired

#1) Found electrical control breaker and moved to "off" position

#2) Removed two (2) screws with a nut driver, that were holding the bake element in position against the back wall of the oven. Gently pulled the original bake element out toward the door to expose the wire connectors from oven to element, then disengaged the connections.

#3) Removed the damaged element, replaced with the new element, reconnected the wires to the element, and returned same into the back wall opening and reinserted the two (2) screws with nut driver.

Repair was complete. Electrical breaker returned to on. Procedure Done!

Took back panel off unplugged sensor and replugged in and worked like a charm!Sears wanted $400 and was going to 'overrepair"Got the 60 dollar part on here. UPS shipped to wrong address and customer service refunded my shipping and was excellent! would definetly use again!thanks

remove the screws, replaced the element, replaced the screws.

The first task is to turn off the breaker so there is no power coming to the oven. I learned in the hard way that even though the oven is turned off, there is still a hot wire connected to the bake element. Next,I removed the oven door and shelves. Then I used a nutdriver to remove the two screws holding the element in place. I expected to find a plug, however the element is connected to two wires buried in the insulation. I pulled the wires off of the bake element, connected them to the new element and put everything back together. This is not a difficult task.

Easy

First I unplugged unit. Theni removed the two screws that hold the element in place . Then went to pull the element out to disconnect the two wires,but was having alittle trouble. There for I removed the large plate(cover) on the back of range,and removed the wires from this location. Put the new element in place,reattached wires,screwed back plate back on ,and pluged back in.

Feedback on site warned me that broiler element is only connected to oven wiring with press-on spade lugs rather than screws. Even with care I managed to 'lose' a wire and had to retrieve it with section of stiff coat-hanger wire bent into a hook. Coming off that experience, I soldered the spade terminals together before reassembly to avoid a repeat. New element, however, failed to rectify problem. Professional technician found main control unit defective -- a $300 part including installation, but at least GE still has it available. My advice to others in this situation is to remove old element before ordering a replacement, and test with meter to see if it's defective. It may or may not be worth going beyond an element replacement to you.

nothing to it.

The part was just like the old one and would have been an easy fix except our range suffered from a lighting hit. The clips had melted together. Called a dealer and asked about a new wiring harness. He said in those cases just cut the clip off and hard wire with wire clips,or firecrackers. We used wire nuts and taped all together and the oven works just great. Nothing is ever as easy as it should be.

Removed oven from wall. Door slides up and off, and 4 screws into cabinet removed, and oven slides right out onto a coulple kitchen chairs positioned to support the oven. 1 man job to lift. Used nutdriver to remove metal cover on bottom back of oven to expose the slide on electrical connection. Used nutdriver to remove old bake element and install new bake element. Reconnected electrical wires, reinstalled back cover, and then reinstalled oven into cabinet. I actually removed the internal metal cover over the convection fan and element also but probably didn't need to do that to remove and install the new bake element.

1. Switch electricity off at circuit breaker panel. 2. With a helper slide door off hinges and set aside. 3. Remove all oven racks. 4. Using socket wrench remove the two screws attaching element to back of stove. 5. Pull the element from the back of the stove and slide off the 2 electric bayonet clips from the old element. 6. Install new element attaching the new element to the old electrical clips. Note: You may have to crimp down the clips to keep them secure to the new element. 7. Reinstall element screws to back of stove using nutdriver. 8. Insert racks and slide door back onto hinges. 9. Turn back on electricity. 10. Turn on element and let it "burn in" for a few minutes. Note: There will be a slight smell while doing this.

I carefully opened the oven door and slid the rack into the groove taking great care not to dislodge the heating element nor to burn myself on the cold oven door. I then pulled open the drawer on the oven and, again, with great care placed the broiler pan into the drawer and slid the drawer closed, again taking great pains to make sure I did not burn myself on the cold over. The reason for the length of repair time is I did not open the box for 2 days. Thanks for the laugh!!!!!!!!!!

Easily glide in.
