Oven door damaged or not functioning properly
An oven door repair may be needed when the door is damaged, won't close, sits unevenly, or does not seal properly. The most likely cause is a bent or broken door hinge. Ovens use left and right door hinges, and some models require different part numbers, so check whether the hinge includes its spring and mounting hardware. If the outer door glass is cracked or broken, replace it rather than continuing to use the oven. A torn door gasket is another common problem because it allows heat to escape, makes it difficult for the oven to reach the correct temperature, and can prevent the self-clean cycle from starting. Less commonly, the inner door glass or another glass window may be damaged, often after a heavy pan strikes the open door. A loose or broken door handle should also be replaced for safe operation. Many repairs require removing the oven door and placing it on a sturdy, protected surface. Wear eye and hand protection when handling tempered glass. Enter your model number to find the exact oven door hinge, glass, gasket, or handle replacement part for your specific oven.
01 - Range/Stove/Oven Door Hinge
An oven door repair may be needed if the door hinge breaks or is bent out of shape. Oven doors have two door hinges, a left and right. On some ovens the same hinge is used, on other ovens the right hinge and left hinge have different part numbers. The door hinge sometimes is sold with all necessary parts and springs, other times the parts need to be ordered separately. An oven door repair for a door hinge is a relatively easy repair for a do-it-yourselfer.
