Jenn-Air Range JES9800AAS Door won't close

The Oven Door Gasket is an OEM part for Whirlpool ovens. This gasket is essential for maintaining a proper seal around the oven door, preventing heat from escaping and ensuring efficient cooking performance. The gasket measures approximately 76.66" in total length with a diameter of about 0.47", it features 25 built-in metal retaining clips.

Causes of a bad oven door gasket can include regular wear and tear, exposure to high temperatures over time, or accidental damage from cleaning or handling. A compromised gasket can lead to heat loss, which affects cooking times and energy efficiency.

Symptoms of a bad oven door gasket include:

• Heat escaping from the oven door
• Longer cooking times
• Visible cracks or tears in the gasket
• The oven door not closing properly

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This left-side oven door hinge supports the door and controls its spring-loaded movement so it opens smoothly and closes firmly, helping maintain a tight seal and consistent cooking performance.

• Provides spring tension and a pivot point for controlled opening and closing
• Aligns and pulls the door fully closed against the gasket
• Restores smooth, even door movement
• Common symptoms of a worn hinge: door won't close fully or sags; slams/falls open; feels loose or stiff; heat escaping or oven light staying on

• Disconnect power and let the oven cool completely before servicing
• Support the door; engage hinge locks or remove the door at the stop position per your model
• Springs are under tension—use gloves and caution
• After installation, verify alignment and that the door closes and seals properly
