Dryer door hinge broken
Opening the dryer door on the vertical axis rather than the horizontal axis, I unscrewed the three obvious screws. These screws are clearly visible when viewed from eye level. The broken hinge came off in two pieces, but presented no difficulty. I inspected the area around the hinge for auxiliary damage. There was none, but I did notice a wisp of cotton candy stuck in the lint trap. This was odd as I had not had cotton candy of any kind in my home or near my dryer ever. I did hear the faint sound of calliope music-I assumed this to be from an ice cream van that frequents the neighborhood-but failed to detect the tell-tale doppler effect of a moving vehicle. Disturbed, but determined to finish my task I removed the new part from the packaging and checked the fit. It fit perfectly. NOTE: Retain the screws from the hinge you remove, as the replacement hinge does not come with screws. I looked down to where my screws lay and saw the bulbous oversized toe of large red shoe. There was a star on the tip, painted in blue and yellow. I looked up from the shoe to see it attached to an ankle with a frilled cuff and up from there a baggy pair of pantaloons. At this point I realized that circuses now being illegal in this country, I clearly had a rogue clown on my hands. Sitting as I was I was not able to quickly get up, and in the confines of my washroom I had nowhere to run anyway. I had to think fast. I could smell the stale popcorn on the clown's breath as he leaned over, I reached for anything I could, grabbing up a pet cleaning vacuum hose. The clown just snorted and said, "You want a Phillip's head for that." The clown was right, of course. I installed the screws, checked that the door worked, and then the clown and I went for churros.

Can I replace only the door hinge part that is on the dryer part number MEF62782201 or do I also need to replace the matching part on the door?
For model number DLE7200WE
Hi James,
Thank you for your question. If it is just the hinge that is damaged, then you should just replace the hinge. If you need the part that goes on the door, the part number listed under your model number for it is PS11711928. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

The hinge on my machine has a crack and when folding the door down it over extends now. Do i need to just order this part or should i replace the door part as well? I cant find a good picture of what that part is suppose to look like to know if that piece is broken too.
For model number dlex7600ke
Hello Justin, thank you for your question. We would recommend just replacing the cracked hinge, unless the hinge receptacle looks bent. We do not have a very good schematic of this unit, but the manufacturer may be able to provide something a little more clear. Their number is 800-243-0000. I hope this helps.

Does the replacement hinge kit come with the screws as well?
For model number DLEX7800WE
Hi Christopher, thank you for contacting us. Based on our research, the door hinge you have mentioned doesn't include the screw. The screw, part number PS11761325, comes separately. We hope this information helps!
