Hi All
i have a 'Leisure Alta' duel fuel oven with a broken door!
I'm currentl scouring the internet to find a pair of replacement hinges (it's these that are broke!) but the real problem is this:
On unscrewing the top hinge bracket, as i undid the last screw i immediately realised what i'd done wrong! The screws from the bracket dont screw into the body of the oven itself, but to a plate behind the main oven body!, hence the plate has now fell into the oven compartment! :oops: (hope you're all following this!).
Do i have to dismantle the entire oven to get to the plate that has fell off, and is this an easy task? i get the impression calling someone out from Yellow Pages will cost a fortune! (oven is only 14 months old! 2 months out of warranty what a pain in the ****!)

Do i have to dismantle the entire oven to get to the plate that has fell off, Side panel off - Yes
and is this an easy task? NO

there are no apparent screws holding the side panels on! only access sems to be from the rear of the cooker. £ days later and still havn't heard back from any of the spares websites regarding the new hinges!! looks like no roast for sunday :(
