Replace the front left cooktop element on the stove
Turn off the power to the stove, either by tripping the circuit breaker or unplugging the stove. Open the oven door. Unscrew 4 screws on the inside top of the oven releasing the cooktop.
Lift the front of the cooktop and release it from the retaining brackets on the back of the oven. The element will be exposed. Disconnect the wires remembering the locations. It is pretty simple because the wires are in a harness. There are three clips holding the element in place. With needle nose pliers, disconnect the clips from the surface. Remove the element. The retaining clips are in holes in the back of the element. The holes are numbered. Remember which number holes are being populated with a clip. Remove the clip from the old element and place it on the new element in the same hole #. Place the new element into the vacated space on the cooktop place the three clips in their respective places which will align the wires. Hook up the wires to the new element. Replace the cooktop (I cleaned it first) and screw it back into place. Turn the power back on and you should be good to go.

No problems encountered
It was easy to remove the old oven door gasket. Just a little tug was all that was needed. Installing new gasket was just as simple as tucking in the gasket end into the hole at the bottom and pushing the clip in the corresponding hole.
TIP: roll the end of the gasket and feed into the hole then use a small tipped screw driver or the point of a needle nose plier to finish installing the ends into the hole at the bottom of the door opening.

The bottom heating element was damaged and needed to be replaced.
Followed a video I found online showing how to replace the bottom bake element. It was very easy to do. I simply unplugged the over, removed the back wire cover and detached the damaged element connectors.
I then removed the bottom oven cover which conceals the element. Unscrewed and removed the damaged element and replaced it with the new one. Connected the wires to the new element and then Installed the bottom cover along with the back wire cover and plugged the oven back in. It was really this easy.

The Range took forever to achieve the proper heating temperature with an inability to maintain a steady heat
I removed the bottom drawer,unplugged the Range and pulled it out to expose the rear cover panel. Using a nut driver (a screw driver can be used), I removed the rear panel to expose the Thermal fuse located almost dead center in the back of the Range. Unplug the two wires and loosen the screw holding it in position. Replace the thermal fuse, plug the two wires into the new part and replace the rear cover panel. Return the Range to its original position and plug it in. The job is done in less than 30 minutes.
