Having an extra set of hands will make it much easier. Best to unplug the unit when doing this, no use heating it upwith the interior light. OR turn the unit off and tape the door switch so the light does not come on. Remove the food from the door. Remove the top hinge and lift the door up and off. Replace the parts and reassemble. Always a good idea to check the door sealing after this. If you have some short 2X4's or whatever will support the door close to the same height of the lower hinge. Then the second person can hold it on this support while you make the repair.
