I have a Kitchen Aid oven, model #KEBS107DWH2 and the hinges are "sprung" so the door will not close all the way to turn off the oven door sensor, unless you prop something up against the door. That said, I paid Sears to replace the hinges and it cost me $154.00 in 2007. Now I have the same problem and I am going to have to do the same thing. The Sears technician said that this was a known problem with the door when he fixed it in 2007. The part number for the hinge is 8185503 and I expect it to be fixed with no charges to me by Kitchen Aid or Sears, unless of course you want to lose a customer for life vs. keeping a customer for life.

The hinges would have to be pried out of the slots and clamped in the open position to allow the door to be reinstalled. Door removal is never recommended maintenance.

Hello. Most often, any problems with the door opening or closing involves the hinge assemblies being damaged in some way. The part number for the pack of 2 hinges(right/left) is 8303989. I hope this helps you!

This can be quite a difficult issue to deal with.. This is really a job for a pro technician, honestly. But if you should choose to try it. Remove the oven door from machine, by opening door slightly and looking at hinges you should be able to be able to slide a small arm on the hinge that locks the hinge and stops the door from closing. You then hold door and move toward closing it and lever the hinges out of their space and carefully place door on floor. Then you have to disassemble the door and remove glass. The video below IS NOT EXACT but will help you with what your up against.

HINGES WHERE PART NUMBER ENDS ON 6 - THEY TIGHTER

The only real fix is to replace the springs on the door closer. Sounds like they got stretched or bent. Usually you can replace the whole hinge in about 30 minutes and that should help.
