Genuine Westinghouse oven door hinge 85800450010815, sold individually, is the current spare for the hinge listed as 0045001081. It suits DSP635 and GSP625 models, the PGP657 and POP663, plus the PPP776, PSP632 and PXP688, in their S and W versions. The hinge profile changed in 2011, so ovens built in 2011 or earlier cannot use this hinge. Please read the build date note below before ordering.

Westinghouse oven door dropping or not closing properly

Oven door hinges carry the weight of the door every time it opens and help pull it closed again. When a hinge spring weakens or the arm bends or wears, the door can drop open on its own, close crooked, leave a gap at the top or one side, or feel loose. A gap lets heat escape, which slows cooking and can make the knobs and control panel run hot. Because both hinges do the same work, the second one is often close behind, and many repairers replace them as a pair.

Part details

• Genuine Westinghouse part 85800450010815
• Current spare for hinge 0045001081
• Sold each
• Not suitable for ovens built during 2011 or earlier

Check the build date, then fit

Ovens built during 2011 or earlier used a different hinge profile and cannot take this hinge, so check the build date or serial details on the rating plate first. Turn the oven off at the isolating switch. Open the door fully, lock the hinge arms as the manual describes and lift the door off. Swap the hinge, refit the door and make sure it closes evenly.

Questions about this part

Do I need two hinges?

This listing is for one hinge. Most ovens use a hinge on each side, and when one has failed the other has usually done the same amount of work, so ordering two is often the sensible choice.
