Customers say they replaced this bake element when the lower element in their range or wall oven burned out, cracked or stopped heating. Several saw flames, sparks or arcing as the old one failed. Customers clip each wire lead with a clothespin or binder clip before disconnecting so it cannot slip back into the oven wall insulation. Stuck screws sometimes needed penetrating oil, firm pressure or drilling out.
