How to Troubleshoot & Replace Ge AP7215724 / WB44X45494 Bake Element

Replaced element. The new element was perfect. The shipping was perfect. Installation would have taken less than 10 minutes if the two range wires attaching to element had been 1 inch longer. Attached thin nosed vice grips to wires at spade terminals to facilitate attachment to element. The repair was simple enough but it would have been perfect if GE engineers had made wires 1 inch longer. 

I ordered the replacement element. I received it within 3 days. It took about ten minutes to replace. Took out two screws pulled element out slipped off clasps and replaced with new one. I put the two screws back and it works. It was very easy. 

Replaced old bake element with new one. The video on the web site was good but all the cautions noted during the video did happen. I had to take the back off of the stove to get to one of the wire leads that had fallen into the "abyss". Hardest part of the repair was getting the oven door back on the stove. 

I didn't remove the door. I removed the two screws holding the bake element. As I pulled the bake element out one of the wires fell off. However, by removing the plate behind the oven it was easily recovered. It was an easy fix. 

I watched a video and did it myself! It was crazy easy! The customer service that placed my order was extremely knowledgeable and kind! Also, I saved an $80 service call doing it myself! 

Looked up the part on your good website, ordered it audit was delivered as promised. I looked up a YouTube video on how to remove and then install the new element. Got concerned when they mentioned if not disconnected properly, the two wire int he stove might fall back down into the insulation. Also, at 75 although handy, not into repairing electrical "stuff". I called the man who helps around my place in the country and he said he could do it. Took maybe 15 minutes, five of that being the time it took to pull the stove out from the wall and pushing back. Easy Peasy. thank you!Don't know if you are a family owned company, but if so GOOD FOR YOU! Big box store couldn't help me with my replacement element search. I'll be using your company again in the future and will refer! 

Removed the bad element. Installed the new one. 

Easy to replace 

Replaced it 

Unplugged the oven, removed the back cover, unhooked the lower element from its connectors, and tested the resistance with an ohmmeter. It had no continuity at all, so i ordered the replacement. When that came, i unscrewed two screws from inside the back of the oven, pulled the old element, put the new one in and put the screws back. Then on the back side, i connected the spade plug on each end of the element to the appropriate wire, put the back cover back on, and plugged in the oven.
