Replaced the hinges, but they don't seem to be the problem. It seems that the previous owners must have bent the pins that the hinges rest on. I have tried bending them back, and that lasts for a little while, but if I open the door fully, they must be bending back, because then the door will not close tightly again. As best as I can see from the schematics these pins are not replaceable, but I am open to suggestions. Thanks:o
