Unhinged for Model Number CRE9600BCE In the repair tips for replacing the hinges there is a discussion regarding which hinges are for which model. In the answer it said that there was a change in hinges at a certain point determined by the serial number (first two digits). It then gave part numbers for two different hinges. Your parts for sale list only shows one model number. Are we to assume that this hinge replaces either of the hinges (42 and lower or 42 and higher)????? My unit may need new hinges as the door will not stay tightly closed unless I move the lock lever to the point at which it holds the door but does not shut off the power to the elements. I find nothing blocking the door that would keep it open, but the door does feel odd when opening and closing it. Does this sound like it may be a hinge problem????? Okay, I know, I asked two questions. I'm just a curious guy who has come unhinged! ;-)
Answer Hello Unhinged. Yes, you can use the hinge 12400043 on either series. Also, the information you provided does sound like the hinges are bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Thursday, June 25, 2015
