Hello:

I've got a burned out oven element that needs to be replaced and I hate calling in a repairman for a $30 part. But the instruction that I find on line all say that the element connects to the wiring with screws. Mine is so old that the set up is a bit different. After I unscrew the back plate (that part was easy) and pull out the element, it is connected to the wiring with flat metal bits. How do I disconnect it from the wiring without breaking anything important? Thanks.
