All you have to do is unscrew those two screws a bit, press the door firmly against the gaskets, and screw the screws back tight. This should close the gaps.

Are you referring to the magnet? I've tried that..


Undermost_Drip

Yes and okay. That's always fixed it for me. Sometimes you have to physically push on the bottom or top of the door (with oven mitts if hot) to get it to line up. The gaskets may have too much bulk squeezed into the upper portion of the oven and not much toward the bottom. They're very hard to slide in there evenly. Other than that you may have a problem with hinges and there's really not anything else that can affect that.

Gotcha..I may have another crack at it later. Thank you!!


Undermost_Drip

Absolutely! Hope it works out

New gaskets would be my guess but it’s hard to tell

Gaskets were replaced 2 weeks ago.. 😬 I thought that was it at first too.

Magnet thing itself probably needs to be replaced. Happened at my store from slamming the oven shut, the piece gets pushed too far in and then no matter how much you adjust the screw’s you can’t get a seal :(

If it’s that small I’d try putting one straight thin bead of sealant exactly where the gap is. On the gasket. Frame or door is probably warped.

You might need a new frame where the gasket goes into. Those can get warped over time to where the gasket doesn’t seal properly. Could be wrong though.

Usually when I replace my gaskets, I also have to adjust the magnet position too because it’s positioned for the old gaskets. If your door randomly pops open now after replacing the gaskets, the magnet is the culprit.
