This oven door hinge is a replacement for many models of ovens. Oven doors will have two hinges. If there is a problem with one or both of the hinges, it means that the door will not open and close properly. It might not stay closed, or it could be difficult to open. This would make it impossible to use the oven, and the hinge should be replaced as soon as possible.An oven door hinge could become damaged for a host of reasons. When the door is open, too much pressure could be placed on the hinge, which could cause it to break. It could become corroded over time, or the spring might wear down. When there are issues, the owner will want to replace the hinge to ensure the door stays closed. Owners should always make sure the oven is off and not powered before beginning work.The oven door hinge will work with certain models of ovens from Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Jenn-Air, Norge, Crosley, and Magic Chef. This is a genuine OEM replacement part, and it is sold individually. If both of the hinges need to be replaced, the owner will need to buy two.

• Opens the heating circuit if internal temperature rises above the thermostat's limit to prevent overheating.
• Commonly used as a safety cutoff for dryers, ovens or other appliance heating systems.
• Symptoms of a failing limiter: no heat, intermittent heating, or an appliance that won't start its heating cycle.
• Works with the appliance's control and heating elements to maintain safe operating temperatures.

• Disconnect power before inspecting or replacing this part to avoid shock or injury.
• Replace with the exact part number to maintain proper temperature protection.
• If the limiter has tripped, inspect heating element, venting and related components for root causes before reassembly.

A shoulder screw that secures appliance components and provides a precise pivot or spacer point. Replaces a missing or worn screw to restore alignment, reduce rattling, and keep panels and assemblies securely in place. What it does:

• Provides a fixed-diameter shoulder for pivots, spacers, or mounting points in assemblies.
• Holds panels and moving components at the correct distance to prevent binding or friction.
• A missing or worn shoulder screw can cause misalignment, rattling, or loose parts during operation.
• Used where a smooth-bearing surface and controlled clearance are required between parts.

• Disconnect power to the appliance (unplug or shut off breaker) before servicing.
• Handle small fasteners carefully to avoid dropping into assemblies; magnetic pickup tools can help.
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly but avoid overtightening.
