Ge WB44K5018 Bake Element OEM Part

My husband, who was the FIX-IT repair man at our house, passed away in March. When our bake element burned out my son, who is 18 looked at me and I looked at him and we shook our heads! We hunted on the oven till we found the serial number. We googled for GE OVEN repair parts and up popped AppliancePartsPros. We found the element, ordered it, watched the DETAILED VIDEO on how to change it out. The part came the next day. Philip had the old one out and the new one in in less than 10 minutes... and to be honest... the long part was going and getting the ratchet set!! The oven is back to baking! Thank you for your GREAT videos and your FAST service!

Ordered both elements and watched the video on the website. Followed the video and it took about 15 minutes. I found using a binder clip to keep the wires from falling back into the over works well

By following the excellent online video available as part of the ordering process, with the following exception. When I slipped the lugs on the new bake element into the connectors soldered to the ends of the oven wires, the fit was loose, so I soldered the lugs to the connectors.

Look on the internet to see if this was something that I might be able to fix myself or would I need to call a professional. Found out that this would be a simple and fairly inexpensive part to replace.

I ordered both the bake element and temperature sensor, which arrived quickly. I had changed a bake element before so attempted this one. However, on inspection, the connecting wire from the oven looked damaged at the terminal end. I found 2 new terminals at a local appliance parts store. (They were free.) Also, the temp sensor had to be straight-wired with the wire nuts included. Although not a difficult job, I didn't have the confidence to tackle re-attaching the terminal ends or straight-wiring the sensor myself. My handyman had everything fixed and working in less than 1 hour.
