Don\u2019t let worries about expensive repairs or full replacements ruin your dinner. Though tackling something as big as a broken range may seem like a big job, this is actually a perfect do-it-yourself project. You\u2019ll save a ton of money by replacing a damaged oven bake element, yourself, and avoid the stress of having to wait on repairs or hunt for a new appliance. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re ready to take the leap on this, read on. AppliancePartsPros.com has put together a detailed walkthrough for replacing a damaged or broken oven bake element in an electrical oven.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Is An Oven Bake Element, And How Do I Find The One I Need?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Electrical ovens typically have two heating elements. There\u2019s one at the top, which is used to heat the oven for broiling, and one at the bottom. That\u2019s the oven bake element&#8211;the one we\u2019re worried about. This part connects to electrical wires at the back of the oven and is held in place by mounting brackets. You\u2019ll often see it glowing red or orange when it\u2019s in use.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This part, like any electrical component, can go bad over time. Whether it\u2019s been shorted out by an electrical surge or simply worn from years of use, it\u2019s not unusual for the oven\u2019s bake element to kick the bucket. Once you know it\u2019s the bake element that\u2019s broken &#8212; you can verify this by turning the oven on and watching to see if it starts to glow red or orange as it heats up the oven &#8212; it\u2019s time to figure out exactly what part you\u2019ll need to replace it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To figure this out, find the model number of your appliance. This\u2019ll be on a metal plate or sticker located somewhere on the appliance. Check on or around the oven door first, as it\u2019s probably somewhere around there. Other places for this plate to be hiding include in the vent ducts, under burners, or beneath the cooktop, itself. With the model number, you can easily search for your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/range-cooktop-oven-heating-element.html\">replacement oven element<\/a> on AppliancePartsPros.com.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Tools You Will Need to Replace an Oven Baking Element<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Replacing a bake element may feel like a big job, but it\u2019s actually fairly simple and requires only a few tools. Here\u2019s what you should have on hand in addition to your replacement part:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Phillips head screwdriver.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A quarter inch nut driver.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A pair of needle-nose pliers.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Optionally, a voltage tester.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='avia-image-container  av-styling-    avia-builder-el-3  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  avia-align-center '  itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"  ><div class='avia-image-container-inner'><div class='avia-image-overlay-wrap'><img fetchpriority=\"high\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class='wp-image-583 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-583 avia_image' src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/c\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/shutterstock_1061325998-1300x630.jpg\" alt='' title='An,Upclose,View,Through,The,Front,Of,The,Inside,Of' height=\"630\" width=\"1300\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '   itemprop=\"text\" ><h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How To Replace An Oven Bake Element<\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Disconnect the oven\u2019s electrical supply. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To start, make sure that the oven\u2019s controls are all in their off positions and then disconnect the oven from its power source. Accessing the plug can be a bit challenging, and its location on the appliance will vary from model to model. You will likely need to move the appliance away from the wall to unplug it. If this isn\u2019t feasible, whether it\u2019s because the oven is hard-wired into the wall or it\u2019s simply too much to move on your own, you will need to cut power to the appliance by flipping the corresponding circuit breaker in your home\u2019s breaker box<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regardless of whether you opt to pull the plug or flip the breaker, <\/span><b>you must make sure that the appliance is not receiving power before moving on to the next steps.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> You\u2019re going to be working with the oven\u2019s wiring, and could risk damage to the oven or serious injury to yourself if you work on it while it\u2019s still powered! Do not ever perform maintenance on a powered appliance as it puts you at great risk for electrocution.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the range or oven was recently in use, be sure to allow ample time for it to cool before proceeding.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Remove the oven door.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Open the oven door and check its base. There should be a set of mounting screws there, one on each side. Using your Phillips head screwdriver, remove these screws. Then, taking the door in both hands, lift it up to pull it off of its hinges and set it aside. Be careful when handling and moving this part. That glass window is definitely glass and if you drop it, it could shatter!<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Remove the oven racks.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The more room you have, the better, so remove the oven\u2019s racks and set them aside to better reach the bake element. You may need to lift up slightly as you pull to completely remove them.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Remove the broken bake element.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> You\u2019ll find the bake element on the bottom of the oven mounted against the back wall. Using the quarter inch nut driver, remove the two screws holding its mounting brackets in place.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don&#8217;t just pull the bake element away, yet! There are wires attached to it, and if you&#8217;re too forceful, they could either be damaged or fall off and slip through the back wall of the oven. While this wouldn&#8217;t be the end of the world, it&#8217;d still add a lot of time and work to this job, as you would then have to access the rear panel of the range and thread the wires back through the corresponding holes. <\/span>Pull the heating element an inch or two back. Just enough that you have easy access to the wires. At this point, as an added safety measure, you can use a voltage tester to verify that the oven is completely unpowered. We do recommend doing this before moving on to make sure that you&#8217;ve shut off the power to the correct breaker. Once you&#8217;re sure the wires are not powered, use the needle-nose pliers to remove their terminals from the bake element&#8217;s contacts. Be careful here, as well. Make sure the wires don&#8217;t slip through the openings at the back of the oven.<\/p>\n<p>With the damaged bake element completely disconnected from the oven and its wires, this component can be safely removed from the appliance.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Prep the wires<\/b> by using the pliers to slightly tighten each of the terminals. This will ensure the wires sit snugly on the new bake element\u2019s contacts.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Install the new bake element.<\/b> Slide the wire terminals onto each of the bake element\u2019s contacts. It\u2019s easiest to do this with those needle-nose pliers. Once that\u2019s done, you can slot the element back into place on the rear wall of the oven and secure it with the quarter inch screws you\u2019d removed earlier.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Reassemble the oven.<\/b> Alright! The tough stuff is done! Time to put it all back together. First, slide the oven racks back into place. Next, you\u2019ll be reattaching the oven door. To do this, open the oven hinges. You\u2019ll have an easier time if you jam them open, which you can do with the handles of your screwdrivers. Try to make sure they\u2019re open about the same amount; it\u2019ll make your life easier. Now, slide the door back onto its hinges. Before screwing it back in, carefully test the door once or twice by opening and closing it to make sure it\u2019s sitting correctly on the hinges. Finally, you can secure the oven door again with its mounting screws.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Test the oven to ensure everything is working properly.<\/b> At this point, you can plug the oven back in or flip the breaker back on. To test, set the oven to bake and watch to make sure that the oven bake element starts to glow and that heat is being produced. If it is, you\u2019re all done!
