Whirlpool W10239357 Range Glass Main Top - Black OEM Part

Once you are resigned to disconnecting the exhaust fan system under the range so you can remove the range from the surrounding counter, the rest is easy. once out, its 8 screws to remove the top and 8 screws to remove the heating elements, and 2 simple wire conneop back onto the stovectors. I labeled the elements before I removed them just to be sure they got back where they came from. zip zip, all was back in place on the new top and the the top back on the stove. the only trouble is reconnceting the exhaust fan after the stove is back in place. The next one will take 15 minutes start to finish.

Used the leveling legs and shims to raise the cooktop above the counter tops. This allowed me to access the screws and replace the top without having to disconnect the down draft fan (the hardest part!)

Professional appliance repair.

Not too hard, total of 8 screws hold top on, hex head 1/4", if you don't have nut drivers then pick up a set of bits at local home improvement store. Screws, 3 each side and two in back, ones in back are recessed behind access holes. Slide unit out to gain access, take out screws, lift top near front, two wiring harness connectors, one left and one right, disconnect them. Lay top upside down on flat surface protected with towels or throw rugs with old and new side by side. Two screws hold each burner, remove them. With an assistant, lift all burners at once and move to new top. Also move the square pads that are under the burner connectors to new top. Recommend ordering the pads with the top to replace any that may have deteriorated, I had one. Reverse process to reinstall. BTW service and delivery by AppliancePros.com was excellent, from order to my door in less than a week for an out of stock item. Sipped by FedEx no charge. Price was less than competitors.

ApplianceParts Pros sent me a replacement glass cooktop for the range. Opened the box on Sunday and the replacement cooktop was cracked and broken. Called and spoke to Andrew in Customer service who ordered me a replacement part that arrived two days later on Tuesday. no hassle, very easy to get the replacement. Just needed to send a picture of the damaged box and cooktop. Did not have to return the damaged part which would have been a major issue as it's a rather large box. And two days later I had the replacement part. Great experience and worry free and Andrew from customer service did an exceptional job on the phone and taking care of business.
