20113 (1988) Kenmore Range - Instructions

After months of buying the wrong parts & cost I discovered this site So easy to order & quick delivery, plus very easy installation. Thank you. I also wanted to add that the reps (Tanisha & Matthew) were extremely helpful & informative. I can only hope all the reps equal their performance. I will definitely be using this site, before any other source. Knowledge & cost is also important to me & that need was met. Good job!

tries brazing ends back onto posts...it did work but still not as good as I wanted. Bit the bullet for 100.00 and bought 2 new burners and drip pans. Only regret was not buying the two smaller burners with pans. Smaller ones still work but the new ones work like brand new and an added benefit is they make the stove look brand new!! Very pleased with decision to buy!

i really wanted a new stove, but budget wouldn't permit; so just had to insert the new ones and they work great with level cooking.

Make sure all burners are off and cool to the touch
Lift up on the burner coil and pull to the side
Lift out the drip bowl
Gasp at how dirty it is
Dispose of dip pan in recycle bin
Wash the gunk off your stovetop, then wash your hands!
Replace the drip pan so that the hole is over the plug in area
Replace the burner coil by poking it into the hole and fiddling around with it until it engages.
Push it firmly into place.
Admire your work, go fix a cold drink and put your feet up
Feel good about your home repair skills!

I didn't. Don't know how to get to light bulb to change it for this specific model

Step 1--cut power to the unit off at the breaker box! Step 2--take a deep breath and dive in. The most difficult part, after getting over the fear, was unscrewing the old unit from the back plate -- been there a LONG time. Step 3, slowly pull the old part forward to see the wires on either side of the old coil. Note how the 'clips' attach to the ends. Remove the old unit, being careful not to bend the clips. Slide the new part into the stove. Attach the clips until click securely--be careful not to bend; make sure the clips are secure or you risk losing the wire inside the stove. Once the clips are secure, gently and slowly slide the ends into the holes. The wires and ends will glide into a hole such that the plates on the part align with the back of the stove. Use the old screws and attach the face plate of the part to the back of the stove. The part may rest slightly above the bottom of the stove; this will resolve itself as the part 'adjusts' to the new environment. Turn the breaker back on and turn on the stove. There may be a slight odor the firs time the unit is used; I suggest leaving the door open and heat the coil completely for about 20 minutes. Should be ready to go. (The old unit should be discarded; ask your recycle team if they accept electronic parts or alert the garbage guys that the old part is in the weekly trask.)

Simple installation of new pans and all are level! Thank heaven! Thank you, PartSelect!

No instructions for installation came w/ part. Used some instruction from order web site that someone else had submitted. Once I figured out how the new part connected to the oven's wiring, it was a very easy to install. If you need to ever replace the bake unit all you need to do are basically 5 things: 1. Using a nut driver, remove the nut at each of the connection points of the old bake heating element (these are located at the back of the stove). 2. Slowly and gently pull the old element towards you until you see the wires that connect it to the back of the stove emerge from their holes. 3. Gently pull up the ends of the old bake unit which will remove it from the vertical wiring posts--don't let the wired posts slip back into the holes at the back of the oven--I used a little strip of tape to keep them from sliding back into their holes. 4. Gently slip the posts (one at a time) of the new bake unit down and over the vertical wiring posts connectors (press all the way down over the wiring posts) then w/ both hands gently squeeze both of the bake unit ends at the same time and slowly push them back into their holes until the fastening plates press against the back wall of the oven. 5. Align the nut holes, replace nuts and tighten them. I turned the oven on to make sure it worked and let it heat up for a 1/2 hour. Everything worked fine. Don't let this repair intimidate you--just use the right tools, take a deep breath, go slow and be gentle. I'm not in any way mechanically inclined and I did it--so can you.

Replaced with the new burner works like new. Thanks a bunch!

Unplugged old burner elements. Popped in new burners. Turned on the burners to test.

Most trainable people can pull out the heating elements and replace the Drip Bowls. The great thing about the ordered drip bowls was that they FIT! Most drip bowls sold as easy replacements for GE or Hotpoint appliances do not fit and wobble the heating element or drip bowls. If not fitting correctly, the tenant usually destroys the heating element and the drip bowl.

The removal of the old burner and installation of the new burners was easy. Just lift the opposite side that rests on the rim and pull burner out. New burner then gets inserted and the opposite side goes right into rim. It took all of 30 seconds to replace both burners. I wish I had replaced these when they first started to go!!

pulled out the old burner, plugged in the new burner. Turned on the power and it heated up very quickly.

Removed the ice brucket,
Removed the light shield by releasing one screw using a nutdriver.
Replacing the bulb and reinstalled the light shield.

Your web site is one of the best and most helpfull service sites I ever used. Just wish that in the future you will ship parts overseas.

Of course, power off first, then I removed the old one and inserted the new one, make sure everything in right place, then turn on power, simple as 1-2-3.
