How to Troubleshoot & Replace Ge AP2634798 / WB30X356 Surface Element, 6"

I used Aircraft stripper to remove the paint on the stove top and oven. This stuff works great!! So then we ordered parts thru this company AppliancePartsPros.com. We got new chrome drip pans, ours were black and rusty. Then ordered 4 new heating elements. I don't think they have been replaced ever. So now our stove looks gorgeous!!! 

Changed all of them. 

Replaced Defective Elements. 

Was quite easy to do, is working very good now. We had to disconnect wires from burner and connect them to the new burner and then replace the cover plates over wire connections. 

Replaced all of the elements. 

I removed the burners (taking a photo of the wiring), ordered replacements from Appliance Parts Pros and will reinstall ASAP. 

I have a very old GE electric range (1972). Tracked down the part number through GE. Their price for the part was triple what APP's was. I decided to order two 6" diameter stove top elements as well. APP had everything in stock. Still, I was dubious because of the age of the range. Also, I have been burned doing transactions over the phone. The customer service rep was extremely patient and helpful. I was pleasantly surprised when the package showed up complete and in good order. I am not a total "Mr Fixit" type. I was a little intimidated with the repair task ahead. But, I was really happy that the install went fine. All of the nuts and bolts were there in the kit and cross referenced to the existing parts. Every thing is working (although the oven element may not be attaining the correct heat level - we'll see) - and I did not get electrocuted! & No returns necessary! many thanks to APP for making the job a lot easier for me. 

Took me about 10 minutes to replace it, and part of that time was cleaning under the old element. It was a piece of cake. 

Removed old ones used the instructions and replaced with the 4 new burners. Terribly easy to do with the instructions and the speed of delivery was awesome. 

I just ordered it from appliance parts pros and perfect and easy! the instructions were celar and I received it faster than expected. thsi is the 2 time i do this and delighted
