Dave,
A late addition, but I changed the element in my EDB710x last evening. It took me 15 minutes and, believe me, I'm no electician!
I isolated the cooker from the mains first (of course!), then removed the plate at the back of the bottom oven (held by 4 small screws). Be careful to pull the thermostat sensor out of its cradle. The element surrounds the fan and is held in place by 3 small screws. I removed these and pulled the element forward. This allows you to unplug the two power connectors (be careful, they're fragile).
Replacement of the element is the exact backward version of the above. I think they call it reverse engineering!!
Good luck, if you haven't already done the relacement.
