This DIY repair guide gives step-by-step instructions for replacing the door hinges on an electric range. The oven door hinges allow the door to open and close smoothly and at a controlled rate. If the oven door won't close properly or won't stay closed because a hinge is damaged or bent, replace both door hinges using manufacturer-approved electric range parts.
This guide shows how to replace oven door hinges on Kenmore 790-series, Frigidaire and Electrolux electric ranges. You also can use the same basic repair procedure to replace similar oven door hinges on Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Maytag, Amana, GE, LG and Samsung ranges.
