If the spring isn't broken, you can save a ton of money by simply bending the end of the spring bracket open about 30-40 degrees, lock it in place by wedging a flat piece of metal into the void so it can't bend back. Put the spring back on and you're golden. I did this to mine a year ago and it's still closing like new.
Going to try that tomorrow. Essentially you are putting some extra tension on the springs that are worn? I wonder if there are replacement springs available at the Fastener specialty shops. Do you think that is an option?
Like all the others videos on this - take the screws out and *poof* the hinge is gone. I've been fighting mine for 15 minutes and can't get the thing out of the slot. A video that showed removing it would be great. Maybe I'm missing something.
@@mattwhitecomb6764 i did, eventually. I had to bend some of sheet metal on the stove to get it out, but since it is covered, you can't tell. Honestly, determination and cussing is the way to do it. Don't give up and let me know how it goes!
Thank you for posting this video. It was really helpful to us. Would you please create a video that shows how to replace the door glass seal strip that wraps around the glass in the oven door?
So that’s the fix for an expensive Viking range, replace the hinges?? We had our range for a bit over two years and the door doesn’t stay closed. Does this mean we will have to spend $155 on repair parts every two years? Really wasn’t expecting this crappy quality from Viking
I have replaced hinges and when oven gets hot ,door will only open half way,when I force it open to get my dinner out ,I strain door and need new hinges Need help 😤
Excellent straight forward video. Some of the other videos on UA-cam on this are a train wreck. Thanks for this.
K Vall can you pls tell what model number the hinges are. I need a pair as well. Many thanks

If you have a few pictures or a video of your fix that would be very welcome

Nice video, very helpful. Thanks!
Would be a great for repairing a door to explain how to remove the door first.
