It is really hard to get the wire to budge.
Some are easy, some are hard
Will it come off using fingers or pliers?
You may have to use pliers to jiggle it slightly side-to- side while pulling on it.

Wire with female connector pulls off, so no not just pull on the wire or you may pull it out of the connector.
When you get the element out, it will be obvious.
Also a good idea once you pull the element for ward to put something on the wires so that they do not fall back into the hole, a clothespin works.

Do the wires just pull off? and push back on again?

The element is easily replaced by first turning off the power, then remove the screws holding the element to the back wall of the over cavity. Slowly pull the element forward revealing the wire connectors. Remove each connector and attach to the new element. Secure with the screws and turn the power back on.

The last time I baked I noticed a orange-pink glow on the right end of the heating element. Thought that was strange. The next time I tried to back cornbread, the red light would not go off indicating that the oven did not (and was never) going to reach 425 degrees. I have located the part on this website. Is replacing the element something a lay person could perform safely??? If so, what are the instructions for performing this task.
thanks
