The left screw that holds the oven handle to the door is loose and I don’t know how to get to the screw to tighten it. Can you advise me how to perform this task?
Mflips,
Here are the basic, general door removal instructions from the service manual,
I used to add washers to the assembly, to help spread the tension out and help keep the screws from loosenning.
