I have a Miele H4250B oven in which the door hinge is broken. I have the replacement part, but I am not sure how to remove the old hinge from the oven

I have the same model Miele and ordered a replacement part. I have 2 Miele ovens side by side, and a door hinge on both ovens began to malfunction. I ordered and received the hinge , but when I started to install it, I found that the hinges were fine! The issue was that the 3 screws that hold the hinges to the oven frame came loose. One of them had fallen out on each of the doors, they had to be jiggled in order to close properly, which was not satisfactory. The ovens were installed 13 years ago by the original owners.

You will need to slide the oven out of its enclosed space and unscrew the sheet metal siding in order to gain access so that you can unhook the coil spring attached to hinge. I found that one of the small machine screws has fallen out on the 2 malfunctioning hinges. Once the spring is unhooked, you can align the hinge to screw it back in, and tighten the other screws that hold the door hinges. The screws on the other side has also become loose.

Eletrolux wall oven modelE30ew7cgps2 change door hinges

The hinges mount inside the oven door, open the door all the way, then move the small clips that are riveted to the hinge to the position opposite of where they sit now... this will hold the hinge springs open. Lift up the door as if to close it, then the hinges will lift out of their slots and you can remove the door... Electrolux Range Stove Oven Door Hinge 318244305

How can I remove door?

Hi Tammy:
Many of the older stoves used a similar door hinge system.
When the door is fully opened it can be removed in the following way.
It's much easier with two people.
With one person on each side, lift near the hinge (closest to the stove) then pull away from the stove and at the same time, lift the handle end of the door.
There is a tab and a notch on the hinge arm that has to slide past the retainer.
To re-install, the hinge has to be set for the "door open position".
Slide the hinge arms into the slot so that the tab and slot engage in the correct positions.
Hope this helps.
Cheerfuls. .

Hi You cant do this without taking the door off the oven this is a 2 person job when it has disengaged There is a wire clip on the bottom of the K type hinge that hooks on to the top of the hinge if you can get them to hook together you can then remove the door You need to do this to both hinges lay it flat get the 2 hinges hooked together put the door back in the oven and release the hook the hook also looks like a flat u shaped bracket it depends on which westinghouse stove you are talking about as to where it is located mostly it is very close to the oven itself Regards Geoff Stove Recyclers

The right hand side of the main oven has broken

You have not given much information to go on, but I am assuming that you mean the door hinge has broken.
If it is a drop down door, then you will have to replace the hinges as a pair.
If it is not the door that is the prob, then I need more information.
Thanks

Dhow do i remove stoves efa600H oven door hinges?

1. Open the oven door and remove the 2 screws at the side of the inner glass window 11cm above the hinges and lift off the door. Place it somewhere safe!
2. Remove the 4 screws that you can see nearest to the left and right edges of the oven with the door removed. These secure the oven to the kitchen unit.
3. Slide the oven forwards about 20cm out of the unit, being careful not to pull on the cable.
4. Each hinge is held in place by 2 screws at the side of the unit now exposed, about 18cm apart. Remove them and slide out the hinges. Reassembly is the reverse of the above.
5. Note that the hinges have no means of adjustment. If not working properly, renew them.

The door will fall off when opened if both hinges are broken, if only one hinge is broken the door will drop down on one side.

I had the same problem. The first time the Tech. came out, put a new hinge in and it held until Nov. 07. ( 8 months ). Then the left hinge brakes when I opend the door and it crashes to the floor. Bending the right hinge and the metal doorliner. Jan.7,08 everything was fixed. On 1/11 after no more then 10 openings & closings the hinge broke again. This time I heard the crack of the braking metal after opening the door 2 inches. It now sits in my kitchen propped-up with a stick, waiting for the repairman. I am sorry I have no solution , but there must be a problem with the hinges. I forgot to tell you that it started with a door that did not close, like yours.

Pull the door down as far as it will go, and at the lower end of the hinges, there you should see what looks like 2 round discs, with a step cut out, rotate the discs with a scewdriver as far as they will go,then close the door and pull it towards you, the door should then pull off.
Replace both hinges, not just the one ,or it will close unevenly.
Slot the hinges back into the hinge slots, pull the door down, rotate the disc back to their original setting, and that should be it.
Plz rate this solution. Thanks.
