I am about to renew the Door Hinges and Runners in a 4040DB cooker, can anyone tell me how you get to the Runners and what sort a job it is to replace them ??
Thank you

Not an easy job unless you’ve done a few.Manufacturers say sides off but you can do it from the front if you can get in.. different ones you can, some you can’t.
Hi Bryan,
Thank you for reply.Even if i were to pull the cooker out and remove the sides,how do I access the 2 inermost sockets/runners. ie the rhs of the left oven,and the lhs of the right oven.
I have an exploded diagram of the 4040DB showing the part numbers. I mention this if it is helpful for you to refer to the ref.Nos.
Is there no 4040DB owners out there who have changed the hinges,who can give me some advice,before I order replacements, particularly replacing the inermost runners?
The centre ones are replaced by partly removing the centre munion. But beware if you pull it forward and bend it too far then it’s a total strip down of the whole cooker ass to straighten it. This job isn’t for the light hearted and just beware of keeping your fingers when putting the hinges on.
