If the toaster door does not stay shut, heat will escape and the toaster will not work properly. This problem can be solved by simply replacing the door spring mechanism.

Werkzeuge

Schritt 1

Make sure that the toaster is unplugged before you begin.
Turn the toaster over with its backside face down.
Remove the two Phillips #4 1cm screws that attach the side panels.

Schritt 2

Pull downwards (towards the bottom of the unit) and outward to remove the side panels.

Hi I am doing my own repairs on a black and decker toaster oven and need some help. identifying that part under the oven where the power cord enters the enclosure its actually a disconnect switch to disconnect the power when the door is opened.

Schritt 3

Remove the metal vent piece that is below the door.
This should slide off easily once both of the side panels are removed.

Schritt 4

Remove the two Phillips #4 1 cm screws, which connect the bottom panel to the unit.

Schritt 5

Remove the crumb tray (the bottom, metal panel) from the toaster unit.

Schritt 6

Remove the aluminum strip from the bottom of unit; this is the piece that is directly under the door.

Schritt 7

Remove the knobs by pulling them upward; they should slide right off.
When placing the knobs back on the unit, make sure the semicircle notch fits correctly in the hole so that the knobs don't fall off.

Schritt 8

Unhook the bottom of the the display panel from the toaster unit.
It will be a little tough to pry off, but don't be afraid to be forceful. You can use your hands, or pliers, to bend the metal piece backwards.

Schritt 9

Begin to detach the back panel from the toaster unit.
Then, unhook the rest of the display panel.
This will also be a little tough to get off, but don't be afraid to be forceful.

Schritt 10

Finish removing the outside cover by lifting the lid upward.

Schritt 11

Remove the four Phillips #4 1 cm screws from the back of the unit.

All this to clean the crumb tray? Ridiculous! Is there not an easier way to take out the crumb tray?

Now, you can clean the outside units of the toaster oven.

Schritt 13

Remove the the heating coil protection bar from the toaster unit by first pulling out the left side.

Schritt 14

Use the screwdriver to remove the spring from the unit.
Place the screwdriver inside the spring loop.
Pull to unhinge the spring from the back panel.

Schritt 15

Remove the spring from the door mechanism by pulling it off.
Replace the old spring with a new spring.
When inserting a new spring, make sure that the spring is connected to the lower hole of the back panel (the hole above is used for the back casing).
