• Direct replacement for a bent, warped, or missing retainer ring
• Common symptoms: lens won't stay in, cover rattles, or difficulty securing the lens after service

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the oven to cool completely
• Remove oven racks for easier access to the light cover area
• Support the glass lens while positioning the retainer to avoid drops or chipping
• Secure the retainer per your model's design; do not overtighten

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing.
• Locate the damaged or missing retainer on the appliance frame or harness mounting tab.
• Route the wire or harness into the retainer and press until the retainer snaps into place; no special tools are typically required.
• Replace any wiring with damaged insulation and secure fit before restoring power.
