140199795059 Genuine Oven Door Hinge 7.6kg Rating for Electrolux Group Ovens, Heavy Oven Door Hinge Replacement

Heavier oven doors need stronger springs, and 140199795059 is the genuine Electrolux group door hinge rated for a 7.6kg door. The rating has to match your oven door, otherwise the door won't balance properly when opened. A hinge with the same rating but a different number may have a different body shape, so go by the number on the old hinge or your oven's parts list.

Symptoms of a failing oven door hinge

A good hinge lets the door glide down and stay where you leave it, then close firmly against the seal. As the spring tires or the hinge wears, the door can drop the last few centimetres with a thud, spring back up, sag to one side or stop sealing at the top. A poor seal lets heat and steam escape, so food takes longer and the front of the oven gets hotter than it should. Broken hinge arms or a door hanging on one side need fixing straight away, as the glass can be damaged if it falls.

Fitting a heavy door hinge

Let the oven cool and turn it off at the isolating switch. A 7.6kg door is awkward, so have a helper ready before lifting it off. Lock both hinge levers open, lift the door away and lay it on a towel. Swap the hinges as your oven's design allows, removing the oven from the cabinet if needed, and get a licensed electrician to handle any hard-wired connection. Rehang the door and check it seals.

Questions about this part

Do I need to replace both hinges?

It's good practice. Both hinges carry the door equally and wear at the same rate, so replacing only one can leave the door uneven. Check your parts list for the quantity, or ask us if you're unsure how many your oven uses.
