Frank B Wesley Chapel , FL July 15, 2014 Appliance: Frigidaire Electric Range FEF365CGBC Cracked plastic overlay from age and pressing the buttons Repair was relatively easy. You'll need a 5/16 socket with a short extension and a phillips-head screwdriver. Probably also an old rag and a bucket of hot soapy water. I started by sliding the stove out from the wall. Unplug the stove as soon as possible. No sense messing with 240 volts AC. If you're like me, and you haven't cleaned back there in a while, here's where you'll need the soapy rag. Cleaning up the stove (and the wall, and floor) will help make the job less gross. Next I took the top aluminum plate off the back with the 5/16 socket. This may not be necessary, but it will give you easier access to the interior panel. Lay a old towel or something similar on top of the stove-top. This will help prevent damaging the glass when you accidentally drop a tool (we both know this is inevitable). Then, look for the two screws that are under the burner knobs; there's one on each side. Use the phillips-head and be real careful not to drop the screws between the back panel and the stove-top. No fun fishing those out. Directly under the overlay panel, on either side of the vent are two more screws. Remove these with the socket. Did you remember to unplug the stove? With a little jiggling, the burner-knob panel will come off of the back panel. You'll need to maneuver it around the vent. Behind the burner-knob panel I found more grease and gunk and decided to do some more cleaning. I know, I'll never see it, but I know it's there, so... I cleaned. The overlay panel is not screwed in, but is affixed to the burner-knob panel by position. You'll need to slowly lift the bottom away from the back of the burner-knob panel, then pull down. This whole thing is attached to the rest of the stove with a bunch of wires, but there will be room. Slowly, peel off the old overlay. Make sure you get all of it. Clean the exposed surface up a bit, then apply the new overlay - it's a simple peel & stick; make sure you line up all the LEDs. Now peel off the clear protector on the front of the overlay. Reverse the process and you are done! Read More... 11 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes Tools: Nut Drivers, Screwdrivers
Tanya K Indianapolis , IN November 09, 2015 Appliance: Frigidaire Electric Range FEF365BGDD My range is 15 years old and the overlay had cracked over each of the buttons Google was my best friend! Found a couple of YOU TUBE videos pertinent to my issue. Very first thing- UNPLUGGED THE RANGE! I took the back off my stove first, very simple just removed 6 screws. Then, to get to the overlay, I had to remove the front panel with the control knobs (2 screws, located under the control knobs, one on each side). There were two more screws directly under the overlay (needed my socket wrench for these). Once those were out, overlay came out easily. Peeled off old overlay, then removed back and affixed new one. Easily done, just be sure to line up. Don't forget to remove the protective film on the front of the new one, also. Put overlay back in place, replaced those two screws, then replaced the front panel and the two screws under the knobs. Replaced the back panel, plugged it in and was good as new!

Elaine R Oconomowoc , WI August 29, 2015 Appliance: Frigidaire Electric Range FEF369CGSC Our overlay pad had been used so much that it could no longer be read We unplugged the stove, unscrewed the assembly on the backboard, unpeeled the damaged overlay, cleaned the sticky residue, reapplied the new overlay, then reassembled the backboard. We had to repeat the reassembly after realizing that the oven vent fan had not been properly replaced facing the stove top after the first effort. We had watched a YouTube movie about the procedure before attempting it. We did have the square-notch screw head needed for this job.
