Rick's Tips for Replacing an Oven Heating Element!!

Greetings! As some of you may have heard, the heating element on our oven went kaput two days before Thanksgiving! We found a local appliance repair parts and service that carried the part and by luck had it in stock. Rick was able to replace the element by himself, saving labor costs and a wait of over a week.

The part cost us just over $50.00 which is about 10 percent of the cost of a new stove of a similar make and model. We can't afford $500 for a new stove, but we could afford the element. Here is how Rick switched out the bad element for the new one.

DISCLAIMER: When doing any home repair, make sure you take all necessary safety precautions. If you have no basic knowledge of tools, repairs, or electricity, you should not undertake this repair yourself without first consulting someone who knows how these things work!!! You do this at your own risk and we assume no responsibility for any injury or damage that may result. Unfortunately we have to make this disclaimer.

Rick understands how to do this and he was able to fix the oven with little effort. He also took the time to use a putty knife on the bottom of the oven compartment and then vacuum out all the debris that was left behind. This will make it even easier to clean my oven once I go to do that, which will be soon.

We hope that this video is helpful to you if you ever need to do this for yourself.

Happy Fixing!
