Default Oven light cycling on and off
Model Number: YRBS305PDQ3   Brand: Whirlpool   Age: 1 - 5 years   

My whirlpool wall oven model YRBS305PDQ3 is experiencing an intermittent clicking sound as the oven light suddenly clicks on and off. When i push the oven door it goes off. when i open the oven door it goes 9or stays) on and when i close it again it goes off. Then perhaps hoiurs or a day later i hear theis clicking sound again as it flickers on and off. When i push the spring loaded pin that shuts it off it goes off. How can i adjust the pin or door so that the pin gets pushed in further to the point it turns off the light when the door is closed.
The inside of the door and seal is clean, and there does not seem to be any obstruction.
Clean mode works fine and locks well, as the pin is connected to the locking claw(when I push the pin in the locking claw moves a bit).
Thank you for your help.

Default

it sounds like your door hinges are the issue, it doesn't seem to be closing tight enough. not a simple fix.
