Ashton for Model Number MEW6630DDQ

The handle of the upper oven has detached on the right side. When the lower oven did this several years ago, I had a appliance guy fix in the tune of $200.00 +. Ordered a new handle. The handle is fine but those screws are broken, so do I need to order a new handle and screws come with it or will ordering just the screws and following instructions to replace work? I am confused from some of your other customers questions and your answers. Thanks.

Hello Rosemary. No, you will leave the washer on the screw WP74006515 and put it into the handle through the hole in the door. Hope this helps.
