Possible Causes

Worn door hinges, Bent hinge arms, Loose hinge screws, Deformed door seal

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the oven is cool before working on the door.

  • Inspect hinges: Open the door fully and check for sagging or excessive play. If the door drops or does not align with the cabinet, hinges may be worn.
  • Tighten fixings: Check and tighten screws securing hinges to the door and to the oven frame.
  • Replace hinges: Remove the door (many Bush doors lift off at the hinges when opened halfway). Swap hinges for new Bush-specified parts and refit the door.
  • Check seal: Inspect the door gasket and replace if flattened or torn.
