First I read some of the other tips provided by the others in order to make it easier for me. I put a of couple of nails on the hinges (in the holes) to prevent them from springing back into the oven. I took the oven door off carefully and laid it on an area rug. Then I took the door apart. I did it slowly so that I wouldn't forget how to put it back together. It wasn't difficult; it just took a little bit of time. So happy that I was able to do it myself. I'm sure I saved quite a bit a money by not having to call an appliance repair shop to do it for me.
Because I removed the oven door per the instructions given on this site and laid it on the counter it was easy to take apart down to the piece of glass that was cracked. All 3 pieces of glass are the same size. It was a good opportunity to clean the glass at the same time. I would say looking back at the number of things I have repaired in my lifetime that this was a piece of cake.
The information provided us through other customers really helped us. My husband is NOT a handyman and does not like to do these type of jobs. However he decided to attempt it. He likes step by step instructions from the company, however following other customers advice worked great. We where real pleased with how quick we received the replacement glass.
Turned off CB for the oven,Remove the oven from the cabinet , remove the back of the oven, replaced the light Assembly. turned on CB for the oven, tested the light. and truned off the CB and replace the back and reinstalled the oven in the cabinet.
Was fairly easy to take door off, and apart. Multiple layers of glass in the door, which all needed cleaning, but re-assembly was rather easy. No tricks or short cuts!
I pulled down the wire around the glass cover. . . Released on end of the wire from its holder being careful to not let the glass cover drop. Unscrewed the bulb and replaced with replacement. Easy, easy.
1. Open the oven door (about 4 inches) until it hits that first spot that it stays open by itself. 2. Put a pin or small screwdriver in the tiny hole in the hinges - this will keep them from snapping back and also make it easier to put the door back on. 3. Pull up on the door until it comes off the hinges. 4. Lay the door on the table with the inside down - remove the 2 screws from the top of the door and the 3 screws from the bottom - pull cover off and lay to the side. 5. Use nutdriver to remove next panel - they are located under the strip of foam along the sides, 2 on each side. 6. Use nutdriver to remove 6 screws around the pane of broken glass. 7. Replace glass then do steps in reverse to get the door back together. 8. Slide door back onto the hinges, remove the pin or small screwdrivers from hinges. Voila! New glass, no problem!
