Magic Chef Range 28FA-7CXW Door won't close

This oven door spring restores the door's counterbalance so it opens smoothly and closes firmly. Replacing a fatigued spring helps prevent heat loss and supports consistent baking by ensuring the door seals properly. What it does:

• Provides tension to counterbalance the oven door through the hinge mechanism
• Helps the door close fully against the gasket to retain heat
• Restores smooth, controlled opening and closing action
• Common symptoms of a worn spring: door drops or feels heavy, won't stay closed, heat escaping/uneven temperatures

• One oven door spring

• Disconnect electrical power; turn off gas supply to the range if applicable
• Springs and hinges are under tension—support the door/hinge and use caution
• Note spring hook positions/orientation before removal; reinstall in the same locations
• After replacement, verify the door closes fully and the seal is even
