Whirlpool WPW10171747 Range Door Handle OEM Part

Open door, removed the two large screws in the inside corners, take the middle white piece and lined the holes up on the door and handle, inserted screws, put all layers of door back together and reinserted large corner screws. done, easy peasy!!!!

Pretty easy fix. Had to unscrew a couple of corner screws on the inside of the oven door as well as a couple of screws across the top. I didn't need to unscrew the screws along either side of the door. Once the screws across the top and in the corners were removed you had space to screw the door handle in place.

Ordered new handle and two new screws.

When the one screw came loose,the other held. This allowed a pivot point for the door to swing down. The swing/fall broke the Handle internal plastic mounting hole structure. So, I ordered a new Handle (part number embossed inside the door handle). I drilled two 3/16 inch holes on the inside door panel that were inline with the Handle holes on the outside panel . Bought two new screws (3/16in X 2 3/4in) Hex-head tapcon cement anchor screws. Inserted the screws through new inside holes, and through the outside panel holes and into the new Handle holes. Tightened screws just until the Handle becomes flush with the outside cover panel.

Needed new handle because screw holee had stripped out. Ordered handle and 2 screws. Wrong screws were sent. Had to use old screws. Installed new handle. Seems to have worked ok.
