91193591990 Kenmore Range - Instructions

Dear PARTSELECT

My experience with you was spectacular!!!!

The oven broiler burner went out on a Sunday afternoon while my wife was using it to cook for our family dinner. We ordered it that day and it was received, installed, and working on Tuesday afternoon...



How could it be any better?



Thanks

I removed the door from the oven. Then unscrewed all of the screws that hold the outerdoor to the inner. Some posts indicated this would not be necessary but on my model it was. Next, I unscrewed the brackets holding the inner glass to the door & removed the glass, noting the way the original glass was positioned and facing. I installed the replacement glass. The metal frame is stamped with "oven" and an arrow idicating the direction the glass should be facing. Once in, I placed the fiberglass rope back around the glass frame and screwed the inner and outer door back together. Finally, I placed the door back onto the oven. Tools used - cordless drill, star bit, phillips head bit.

Due to my disability, 2 neighbors came over with their tools. It took both of them to take oven door apart to install the new glass. All went well.

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.

First I unplugged the range. Then I removed the hex head screws, disconnected the two flag connectors and removed the old element. Then I reversed the process with the new element. I plugged the range back in and set the control to broil. It works like a charm!

Pulled unit away from wall with help of husband and followed instructions.

Used screwdriver to open door and Allen wrench to remove and replace glass.

This installation was for a replacement for one of the burner bowls on the original order. Replacement bowl fits proiperly.

Ordered part which arrived in 4 days. Removed range door (simple), removed shelves. With a power nut driver, removed support brackets holding element from top of oven. Removed screws holding element and temp probe at the rear of oven. Removed 2 wire connectors attached to element. Removed damaged element. Attached the replacement element to the 2 wire connectors and fed cables and probe wires back into the cable opening at the rear of the oven. Attached the new element to the top of the range with the existing screws. Attached the rear of the element with the temp probe with screws at the rear of the oven. Replaced range door. Plugged in power and tested for 15 minutes. Job complete. Parts price, great! Service call saved, priceless!

Removed the old element and installed the new one.
