I replaced the door hinges on the oven about 4 weeks ago. Door was not closing all the way. New hinges worked great until a call back yesterday. This is not the first Jenn Air oven I have had this issue with. . Thank you for any advice.

On the Jenn- Air ovens, it was a normal practice to also replace the hinge receptacles on the door. The internal pins in the old receptacles will bend out of shape enough to gap the door .Also on some of those units there was a tech bulletin out to also install a couple of fiber washers between the hinge assembly and /or receiver to create even a tighter fit when the door closes. There is more on specific models , the entire oven door liner must be replaced, especially if the customer was a self-clean junkie.
A change has been implemented to the hinge and receptacle parts installed on all Single, Combo,
and Convenience Wall Ovens. Existing hinge and receptacle parts will not fit on upgraded models,
and new hinge and receptacle parts will not fit on old models.
On the models listed in the table below, an upgraded model can be identified by a serial prefix
number. When servicing models manufactured prior to the serial prefix number change, a kit
consisting of the hinge and receptacle is required. When servicing models manufactured after the
serial prefix number change, the hinge or receptacle may be replaced as a separate item.
NOTE: When ordering replacement parts, use the following chart to determine the correct part
for the unit being repaired.
