This oven probably was manufactured in the '60s when the house was built. The door doesn't just pull off like the newer models. These pins fit into small holes on the oven hinges. I inserted the pins and lifted the door to a 45 degree angle, before pulling the door completely off. Now that turned out to be the easy part. I then proce ...

The hardest part of all was actually remembering how to put it back together again. I put the door back on just as I had removed it, then took out the pins, and I was finally done! This was not an easy project, BUT the results look great.

If your version of the stove has the square blank manifold tube, this superseded part does NOT work! The instructions that came from Whirlpool are so small and unreadable. I had to scan / take photos of them so I could blow them up to make them readable.
If you follow the instructions to the letter, the part will NOT work in the st ... Read more ove. I had to make several extra modifications and further "grinding" along with moving the screw holes to get the part in; and it still does not fit 100% but it is working.
I called Whirlpool for help / addition information and that was a waste of time, they sent me in circles and gave me no answers.

This part may work great in other models, but it does not fit SF310PEKW0 with the square black manifold tube.

For reference, I actually know what I am doing when it comes to things.

This is a cook stove that is used 5 months a year. We have not fixed it yet because we are now in Florida the stove is in New York. We ordered that part just before we left NY for FL so the repair will be done in June of 2021.
