ELICA GLASS OVEN DOOR WONT REATTACH PLZ HELP!!!!

FieryBlondeScot

well i took the glass panel in my oven door off to clean it and cannot get it back on again! despite several hours today screwing the screws in in various directions im totally puzzled as to how they wont screw back in

there are two screws either side and the whole front of the cooker is now all over my kitchen floor.they are to be screwed in with a flathead screwdriver and the screw fits into a seperate metal round thing (not a bolt but i dunno what its called) but the round thing kinda holds the glass in place. the screws dont look very much like proper screws to me not a lot of grooves on them. i have tried screwing them in and hammering them in now

i am nearly in tears its taken me allllll day with absolutly no progress and like i said the front of my cooker is in loads of bits on the floor

I don't know if this will help, but have you tried working out where all the bits should be without the glass in place? I sometimes find that if you can find a way to 'see' how things go, it helps you re-assemble the jigsaw with all the bits, when you can't necessarily 'see' how things should be.

But you have my sympathy! And best wishes for sorting it.

BTW, I presume you had to 'unscrew' something to get your glass panel out? I have a Belling, and the internal glass panel just slides in and out - not very often I have to say because I'm terrified I'll drop it!

I had the same problem - I asked one of my neighbours as they had the same oven and done theirs before. Could be worth asking them or wherever you brought it from.

Best of luck.
