How to Fix / Troubleshooting

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

  • Inspect hinges: Open the door and check both hinges for bending or damage. If the door sags or does not close evenly, replace both hinges as a set.
  • Check gasket: Inspect the oven door gasket around the frame for tears, gaps, or hardened sections. Replace the gasket if damaged.
  • Tighten screws: Check the screws securing the inner and outer door panels and handle. Tighten any loose screws that may affect alignment.
  • Re-seat door: Many Insignia doors can be removed by opening to the broil stop position and lifting off the hinges. Remove and reinstall to ensure proper seating.
