Thank you for this….i bought a used oven for my shitty apartment because my landlord is an absolute scumbag and won’t replace the one that broke. I wouldn’t know what a grounding strap was and I would have been out a good amount of money had I not watched this so….thank you for that.
My old range will be thrown out as it was one of the many Samsung ranges of poor quality. Is it acceptable to re-use my power cord off of my old range and install it onto my new range? The cord should be fine right as long as it has not been damaged?

There's no outlet behind my Frigidaire electric stove (~2006) only wires inside a conduit. I assume that I just disconnect the old stove and connect the new?
How important is the strain relief assembly? Mine doesn't fit, as in the "ear" won't lay flat on one direction because there isn't enough room inside the housing on the stove so I can screw the two pieces together tightly
Hi, it's code to have strain relief on a flexible power cord for a range for safety. I would check at a home center or hardware store to see if they have a different style that would work for your setup. Check out some home improvement tips in our e-books www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B2KW1FQ9

I was told the neutral ground strap be removed when going to 3prong Dedicated ground and neutral Tieing both neutral and ground together is not recommended
Hi, this is the recommended wiring for a 3 prong power cord. The neutral to ground strap is connected by the manufacturer. For 4 prong power cords, you would separate the neutral and ground by removing or cutting the grounding strap. Follow the recommended installation instructions from your model.
Thank you for going straight to the point and not that nonsense talking others do!
It feels like I listen to life coaches instead of diy videos
