How to Replace the Power CordThe power cord of an electric range is a 240V, heavy gauge wire with either 3 or 4 prongs on the plug. If the wire has been damaged, visible or not, the oven may still work or may not work at all. The power cord connects to a terminal block inside the appliance. If this connection is loose or corroded it can also interfere with proper operation of the range. Caution: Please read our safety information before attempting any testing or repairs. Before replacing the power cord, unplug the appliance or shut off the power at the fuse box or breaker panel to avoid an electrical shock hazard. When disconnecting wires, it is often useful to take one or more close-up photos to guide you later in the proper reconnection of the wires.
