To remove the failed element, I needed to use a degreaser on the screws, but after that, I got the old element removed. However, I also needed to remove the rear plate on the oven to get at the oven element connection terminals. Though I didn't know I would need to remove the back plate, the repair was pretty straightforward once I did. 1 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 15-30 minutes
