How do you replace the hidden bake element, if it goes out?


Good day, Jennifer! Here’s a detailed step‑by‑step guide on how to replace the hidden bake element on your Frigidaire 30‑in Slide‑In Electric Range (glass top / 5 burners), assuming it uses the “hidden” style element under the oven floor. Also included are key safety & troubleshooting tips. If at any point you’re uncomfortable working with electrical appliances, it may be best to call a professional. 1. Remove oven racks & bottom panel - Open the oven door and remove all racks for clear access. - You’ll need to remove the oven’s bottom panel (the liner or floor panel). According to the guide: “Remove the thumb screws holding the bottom panel, tip up the front corner to pull it out.” - With some models, you may also need to remove the back access panel (behind the oven) if the element is accessed from the rear. 2. Detach the old bake element - Once the panel is removed, locate the hidden element under the oven floor. Remove mounting screws (commonly two at the front and two at the rear) that secure the element in place. - Pull the element slightly forward so you can access and disconnect the wires. Use needle‑nose pliers if needed. Be careful not to let the wires slip through holes in the back of the oven (which might require pulling the range out). - Remove the old element and discard it properly. 3. Install the new bake element - Slide the new element’s terminals into the same holes the old one came through. - Connect the lead wires onto the spade terminals of the new element and ensure a good, firm connection. - Position the mounting brackets, align the screw holes, and reinstall the mounting screws to secure the element. 4. Reinstall panels, racks & restore power - Reinstall the oven bottom panel, making sure it’s seated correctly under any retaining lips and that all screws are replaced. Slide the racks back into place. - If you pulled the range out or removed the rear access panel, return it to place. - Restore the circuit breaker / reconnect power. - Test the oven by running it in “Bake” mode and verify it heats properly. - Maico
