Oven /range door recievers need to be replaced.This picture shows the recievers that have been worned out on the bottom. The symptoms in knowing when to replace the recievers are: When the door is closed the oven door light does not go out and the door does not fully close.
How to replace the oven door recievers
Remove the door by using a small screwdriver to push down the lock latch till it hits the back of the hinges. Do this to both sides of the door, as the picture shows.This will allow you to remove the door. By holding the door firmly and using an upward and out movement the door will unlatch from the recievers. Also you must remove the bottom drawer to unit.
Oven door recievers are held by two screws. Use a screwgun and remove both top and bottom screws.Do one at a time so you can look at how it must be put back on to frame.The next picture will
show how to put it back on .
Remove the oven drawer so you can have access to the inside of the frame. Look at the picture you can see how it should go back on. You will have to slide the reciever up and against the frame and align it to the frame screw holes. Using a pair of needle nosepliers grab the reciever from the center as seen on picture . This will aid you in holding the reciever in place so you can screw them back in there place . Do the same on both sides. Reinstall door to the recievers, do not forget to push back the lock latch to secure the door.
