You need a 1/4 or 1/16 mm. to take it out, they always have a simgle plug.

I always unplug oven or turn off power make sure though it will bite ya and hard after turning power off if you do it at the breaker turn stove top on make sure it don come on remember its 220volts and it hurts open oven door remove all racks.Then remove the screws mounting element to oven pull gently towards you (you may have to lift the front up a little) pull old element out until you see the spade connector (plug ins with the wires attached) remove these should be two of them be careful not to let wires go back into the cabinet put new element in hook wires back up to wires push back into the hole and put screws in turn power back on and test. this can also be done by taking the back off also and doing the same thing in the oven.hope this helps ya

SOURCE: BAKE ELEMENT

Hi there,
not sure I can help but will try. If your oven is fan forced you will probably find a cover that removes inside the oven to reveal the fan and also the element. Some elements are screwed in. Sometimes you have to take the back panel off also to get to the wires to remove them without breaking the lugs off. Hope this helps.

Regards
Bryan

SOURCE: how to replace a fan bake oven hidden element

Before attempting any repairs, make sure the power is turned off! If you are unsure or not confident, please call a service technician.
The element is behind a cover that is held in place either by screws or clips. Once the cover is removed, the element will be visible. The element will be screwed in place by a number of screws on the base plate and around the element itself. After removing the screws, pull the element fron the rear of the oven. the wires should be attached to the element via lugs. The lugs need to be unattached from the element. Before removing the wiring, take note of the connections so that reinstallation can be carried out.

SOURCE: Whirlpool Range GR563LXSSo Oven doesn't come up to

Hello- Access is thru left side panel (from front).  Unplug oven and move out for easier access. Remove panel and find cover for element under insulation. Be careful- fiberglass dust and sharp edges!  Insulation needs to be carefully pulled back enough to remove cover and element.  This is where most techs get sloppy-  Insulation should look just as good after you finish so take some time to do it right. Please acknowledge this posted solution if helpful. I have more info if needed.- Thanks- Ed

My Electrolux double oven goes from "bake" to "warm oven " after about 1 hour. I try to use the other oven and it will go start to "warm oven"

is the bake element getting hot?when you put the oven on bake both the broil and bake elements come on,if just the broil element is getting hot it might take it an hour to heat up.you might just have a bad bake element,if the bake element isn't hidden does is turn red? if not it's not getting hot.

All the lights and buttons work/sound on control panel. Broiler oven works but baking element not working. Replaced baking element with new, but still doesn't work. Convection fan works, light works,...

Manufacture and model would be nice ohm out the bake element might be open some are in the oven cavity others are hidden below the lower oven plate and have to check from the rear by removing back cover in the bake mode the broil element element cycles on/off thats why you have some heat.

Preheat takes too long

does the oven bake properly when it does reach temps?
if this is a newer oven, with a hidden bake element, they do take longer to preheat so may not have any problems, just give it about 15 minutes to preheat.
if it is older and doesnt bake right, then you may have a bad bake element.
the unit will heat but wont bake right.
unplug the oven and take the bake element to your local parts house, they can check it and sell you a new one if needed.

Oven enamel chipping

The only solution I know of for the enamel coming off on these units is replacement of the unit, and since it is 4 years old you are going to have a tough time getting dacor to replace it or even give you a credit towards a new one. I have never actually seen the problem on a Dacor. Does the unit have a hidden lower bake element? If you cannot seee the elemnt its hidden, and you cannot put tin foil on the floor of any unit wiht a hidden bake element, as it will damage the finish. I know this isnt much help, but I work on Dacor products regularly as we are an authorized servicer, and I can't say I've ever seen a finish problem on one. Best bet at this point is to call Dacor and see if they will do anything about it. Good Luck!
