Well I had my oven door ducked taped together. I Am a 51 yr old female and I laid on the floor on my back to see if I could get the rest of the molding out without having to take off the entire oven door. I was able yo pop out the rest of the broken molding. I wasn't able to snap in the put it under the front of the oven door hold it together and screw in my new screw on the inside of the oven door. IT WORKED!! If I can do this so can you.

Watch the video...

after watching the video, installed the temp sensor. Super easy

looked on internet on how to remove top. an easy fix after watching video

This oven probably was manufactured in the '60s when the house was built. The door doesn't just pull off like the newer models. These pins fit into small holes on the oven hinges. I inserted the pins and lifted the door to a 45 degree angle, before pulling the door completely off. Now that turned out to be the easy part. I then proceeded to completely dismantle the door. It actually has 4 glass layers which had to be cleaned individually. The hardest part of all was actually remembering how to put it back together again. I put the door back on just as I had removed it, then took out the pins, and I was finally done! This was not an easy project, BUT the results look great.

This is a cook stove that is used 5 months a year. We have not fixed it yet because we are now in Florida the stove is in New York. We ordered that part just before we left NY for FL so the repair will be done in June of 2021.

Replaced switch. Works right now.

I had to unscrew the handle from the door as well as take out the front glass, put the trim in place (Thank God for the bottom placement nipples on each trimpiece), hold everything together after aligning all the pieces in place while I screwed the handle back on. The reason I was replacing the trim in the first place was that it is fragile plastic that had broken on both sides when I replaced one inner glass piece that had broken.
