The oven door (Model SMW272) does not close completely. It may need an adjustment or a new seal?

Not unless you have a fan turned on. It sounds like the oven is sealing correctly. You may need a new gasket or the door tention adjusted.

is the door switch bad?when you open the door all the way if it is at a 90 degree angle the hinges are good also i just looked your model number up and it says the hinges are no longer available part 14-38-045-01

you do steaks under the griller not in the oven

Needs new door hinges.

Your oven door may have a defective hinge or simply is not aligned correctly. I am assuming the door, when shut, is NOT totally sealed around all four sides??? If the door is sealed around all four sides, than you have a switch that activates the light that is possibly defective. As for the electronic display, this display unit will have to be replaced.

Have exactly the same situation. All the solutions I have seen talk about replacing the hinges or seal. But people report the same thing happens a month later. Looking hard at the door what it needs is something to pull it right at the top. So I installed a rare earth magnet from www.kjmagnetics.com I used part number BX884DCS which costs $4. It mounts with a couple of screws and I put it on the door a couple of inches down from the top.
Its possible that heat from the oven will kill the magnet over time but for $4 I can replace it for a lot less than hinges and it works great. The door closes more securely than it ever did when the oven was new.
Hope this helps.

If you take the hinges off, you can fit some washers between the hinges and the door to make it close it further. Probably not as good as new hinges, but cheaper. 2mm of washers will close a 5mm gap

Don't buy Bosh. This is a common problem with them and they are not interested in a fix (ie a thinner door seal would help or adjustment to springs...

My husband just figured this out.

- Follow Door removal instruction from the manual.
- There is a screw at the end of the hinge that can be adjusted.
- Adjust the screw to desired height.
- Secure lock nut.

no adjustment. probably needs new hinges - hinge spring gone slack
