My oven door doesn’t close tight. Sometimes the light is on from door not being shut. Can I add spring tension?
For model number MER8700DS1
Hello Tony, thank you for the question. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest you replacing the door hinge, part number PS11754072, to fix the issue. The hinges on an oven door control the rate at which the door opens and also allow the door to stay open at an angle. Good luck with this repair!

Hello David, thank you for reaching out. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest checking the temperature sensor. If it is not faulty, then you may need to replace the control board, part number PS11756986, to solve the problem. Glad to be of help!
First, we turned on broil and the upper element turned orange and obviously worked. We figured the bottom element went out. The diagram on this site showed a bottom heating element that looked nothing like ours, but after reading other reviews, and reading that part that goes through the back of the oven was in the middle, and not off to the side, we ordered this element. It was perfect. All you have to do is unplug the oven, take out the bottom pan covering the element by removing 2 screws in the back, remove the lower small cover on the back of the oven and then unplug the old element, unscrew the old element on the inside of the stove, then install the new element and put everything back like it was. Nothing to it. It worked like a charm and my oven now heats up fast again. Easiest appliance repair job ever!
Took 2 screws under front edge of smooth top. Unscrewed ground wire from back of smooth top unit. Unplugged 2 wire bundles, from back. Took bad element out , put in new one. Put back together. About 10 min's tops. Easy peasy.
