How to Troubleshoot & Replace Ge AP3140301 / WB07K10043 Oven Door Handle Endcap

Finally after patching the old endcaps with glue and moving screws around I needed to buy new ones after one fo the kids pulled it off. I could not find the almond color endcaps anywhere but the white ones don't look that bad on the almond stove. And I could color match with some paint if I wanted to go that route. Installation was basic enough. I used a chair to prop up the glass front while I was doing the install so it would not stress the metal at the bottom of the stove door. 

I looked up part on the website, ordered it and replaced it in about 10 minutes. The hardest part was going in basement to turn off power to stove. I also read some of the other stories and made sure to pull wires out a little more so that they didn't fall back into the rear of stove. 

Bought replacement end caps of stove handle. Out screws and actual handle were not broken. 

Order the part and repaired it myself 

There are two screws on the inside of the door, that hold the caps on. When you get those out (T-15 Torx bit) and separate the inside of the door, you will find 1/4" hex head screws also, and the part of the end caps they go into will probably be broken off. The metal on the outside of the door will probably be bent out just a bit where the long screws go in. Tap them straight. There are a couple of pieces of bent sheet metal, one on each of the long screws, to preserve the thickness of the door. Don't lose them. Put it all back where you found it, with new end caps. Put one end cap on just with the 1/4" screw, then slip the handle inside it before installing the other cap.Be sure to tighten the 1/4" hex screws before you put the rest back, because after you get the door together they will be hidden. Be sure to get the top of the inside panel inside the outer panel. If you have done this right, everything should fit tight and snug and look like new. This is a lot easier than I made it sound. 

Removed old endcap's and re-install endcap's 

Just took screws off replaced end caps, looks like new. Thanks so much. Would recommend you to everyone 

Simple take off 4-screws and replace them with the new ones. 

Replaced with new ones 

It was easy. Just unscrewed the old one from inside the door and screwed in the new one. For the model # JBP78W0B1WW you have to order 2 end caps MFG(MFG # WB07K10043 and handle MFG # WB15X10018 ). Read another review and it was very helpful in ordering the right parts. Thank you for that review. And the parts came in a timely fashion (2 days).
