Whirlpool self cleaning ove - with accbrake system.
Removed the door to clean inbetween the glass. In removing the door something popped. I clean the door and tried to put the door back but it will not go back the way it was. It's too low and isn't fitting properly.
Can you give me some idea on how to put it back. ???? thank you so much in advance.

Sorry, the link I provided earlier was too long and didn't show up completely.
If you have your owner's manual, there are step-by-step instructions on removing the door. If you don't have it, you can probably find it online on the Whirlpool site.
I think JJJ probably heard a pop because the spring-loaded hinges weren't locked prior to removing the door.
I removed the door, cleaned it, and replaced it in about an hour. It wasn't an easy task, but it can be done.
Here are the instructions:
To Remove the Door:
NOTE: If the door removal pins included in the
Anti-Tip Bracket Package are not available, nails
or screws may be used. Be careful that the length
of the nail or screw does not damage the oven by
chipping or scratching the porcelain surface.
To remove:
1. Open the door about halfway. Insert door
removal pins into both hinge hangers. Do not
remove them while the door is removed from
the range.
2. Close the door as far as the door removal pins
will let you.
3. Rotate the door toward the range. Lift up the
door until it stops. Do not use the door handle to
lift the door. Rotate the door toward the floor and
pull it toward you.
To Replace The Door:
NOTE: The door removal pins you inserted must still
be in both sides of the door.
1. Grasp the door on the sides with your fingers on
the front of the door and your thumbs on the
inside surface.
2. Rest the hinge hanger so that it is flat (at the
bottom of the hinge hanger on the bottom of the
front frame slot).
3. Position the door with the hinge hanger slots
almost parallel to the front frame.
4. Push up and in until the hinge hanger slots
become fastened to the range. Lower the door
and rotate it slightly from the front to the back
until the slots are fully fastened. The hinge
hanger will be close to the bottom of the front
frame slot.
5. Pull door open about halfway and remove the
door removal pins. Save door removal pins for
future use.
6. Close the door.
