The brand and models it suits aren't on our record, so this is a part to buy by matching. Compare the number with your old hinge, along with its shape, arm length and screw positions, before ordering. With the right hinge in, the door should open smoothly and close firmly against the seal again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow a worn hinge affects your oven\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOven door hinges balance a heavy door with a spring and pivot, holding it shut against the seal and stopping it slamming down when opened. Wear creeps in gradually. The door may start to drop faster, sit unevenly, gap at the top corner or need an extra push to close. Eventually a spring can snap or a hinge arm can bend. Apart from being annoying, a loose door wastes heat, slows cooking and can make the knobs and control panel hot. Check both hinges, as they tend to wear at a similar rate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneric oven door hinge, part FG03ZV2137\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAftermarket replacement hinge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand and models not on file, match by number and shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting the hinge\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMake sure the oven is off at the isolator and completely cool. Support the door while you release it from the hinges, as oven doors are heavier than they look. Take a photo of the old hinge in place, unscrew it and fit the new one in the same position. Refit the door and open and close it a few times to check it moves evenly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould I replace both hinges?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's a good idea when both sides have done the same amount of work. A new hinge paired with a tired one can leave the door twisting or closing unevenly. Check that both of your hinges match FG03ZV2137 before ordering two.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Universal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44551177994318,"sku":"FG03ZV2137_G","price":200.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0768\/3489\/7998\/files\/fg03zv2137-generic-oven-door-hinge.jpg?v=1792026325","url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/fg03zv2137-generic-oven-door-hinge","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
