Garett N Lubbock , TX May 06, 2016 Appliance: Model JMS07001HA Oven would not heat and oven light wouldn't work Tested the power to the unit by turning on the cooktop portion and saw that I had power to all of the burners. Turned the selector knob to broil and saw that the top element would heat up. I then turned off the breaker to the unit. I then decided to take out the baking element to do a continuity test. When I touched it, a 1.5 inch section fell out. Since that concluded my continuity test, I assumed I needed a baking element. After receiving the parts the NEXT DAY (amazingly great service from Appliance Parts Pros), I replaced the element after watching the helpful video. After turning the breaker back on, tested the element and it began heating as it is supposed to. As I stated above, the light also didn't work, so I had ordered a lamp cover and retainer when I ordered the element. It took a minute or so to change those out, replacing the bulb in the process solved the light issue. My sister-in-law called me a couple of hours later and said that she was enjoying watching her oven cook a great supper and I am her Hero! The only thing I would add is that our unit is a 40 year old GE Mark 27 unit. The video used a standard oven range that was much newer. The repairman in the video simply unplugged the wires from the baking element. In my unit there was a screw that attached the wire to each blade on the element. It was a pain in the neck simply because of the position you have to stay in to have both arms at the back of the oven performing this feat. If you have this same situation, my recommendation is to do a test run putting the new screws into the holes in the blades BEFORE you try it inside the oven. This cleans out the threads and makes it much easier to attach it inside the oven with very short wires and not much room to work. Hope this helped!

Barry D Dublin , GA November 04, 2018 Just a simple entire light fixture broke couldn’t find the parts Once I discovered you guys, my world became better. We broke the globe in the oven about two years ago. I’ve replaced several oven lights since then. I finally got tired of doing that and started looking for the light globe. Had trouble finding the right one. Had one place hook me up to what they called the right one. It wasn’t. Then I discovered you guys. You had the entire assembly together but I could order it or just a single piece. I ordered the entire packet and had it in hand within a few days. It fit perfectly and was in place 5 minutes after receiving it. Thanks for making it easier guys!! Read More... Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes

Roberto T Wading River , NY March 07, 2015 Appliance: General Electric Electric Range JB988TK3WW Ooven light cup damaged the indent for light cover retainer broke during removal to replace burt bulb Replaced with new part. Step one is to unplug oven from power (or turn off power from breaker box). When doing this job you mast also replace the oven light gasket. It prudent but not necessary to replace the screws. Getting the light cover retainer and lamp cover assembly was only precautionary and not needed for repair. When taking off old oven light cup, particular care needs to be used in disconnecting power terminals as they are easy to snap, if this occurs there is very little room to replace terminal and may require more extensive repair work. Under optimal conditions this is a 5 min job. Removing the oven door makes the job easier but is not necessary. Read More...
