Possible Causes
Worn or bent door hinges, Broken hinge springs, Deformed door seal, Loose door glass or inner panel
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure the oven is cool before working on the door.
Steps:
- Inspect hinges: Open the door fully and check for sagging or play in the hinges. Look for broken springs or bent arms.
- Check seal: Inspect the oven door gasket for gaps, tears, or hardened sections. Replace if it does not contact the frame evenly.
- Adjust/replace hinges: Remove the door (most Morphy Richards doors lift off at the hinge slots when opened to a specific angle). Replace the door hinge assemblies in pairs to ensure even closure.
- Re-seat glass: Tighten any loose screws holding the inner or outer glass that may prevent proper sealing.
