| Repaired Oven with Heating Element And Louis checking it out Elkridge, MD March 25 ,2021 |
Last week, you may recall, one of the heating elements in our large oven broke. Badly. It was a total loss. I ordered a replacement which was delivered, as promised, on Tuesday evening.
Since I don't like to tackle projects after dinner and a glass, or two, of wine I decided to wait until last evening to install the new heating element into the oven.
Whenever attempting a repair there is always an element of risk. Did I troubleshoot the problem correctly? Will the repair work? Am I missing something?
Last evening I made the repair. Amazingly, it was fairly straightforward, two screws and two clips. The old element was removed and the new one installed in about ten minutes. The hardest part of the repair was reinstalling the oven door.
After a quick operations check to see if the oven would heat, which it did, I considered the repair complete. A few minutes of work and a $40 heating element saved hundreds of dollars which would be the cost of a new stove.
My job is done here!

You are lucky you can do such things. Every time I (Todd) try something like that I end up paying twice the price: To undo the mess I've done and then to repair the problem correctly. So it's cheaper here to have someone else tackle the problem from the get-go :)
