Electric oven element replacing

madlyn

I have a whirlpool generation 2000+ electric oven. And the elements have broke. Both elements are located at the top of the oven. I have searched the internet on gow to replace these but have had no luck. Can anyone please advise on how to do this?

Have you actually tried to remove them yet?

very easy job, try Ransom Spares for the part - and video of how to change it

Hope that helps.

Most of them are usually a couple of screws and unplug the terminal.
Just remember to switch it off at the mains first.

My landlord found out the hard way! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Another thing to watch is that the mains leads don't disappear into the back of the cooker when you disconnect them from the element. I clip a couple of clothes pegs on to them to make sure they can't.

i have ordered the new elements. and all the video's in can find online are for fan assisted ovens, where you unscrew the backplate and the element is behind that. mine isnt a fan oven and the elements are at the top of the oven.
bt the look of it i'm going to have to pull the oven out and remove them from the top as they seem to slot in.
