Safe microwave operation depends on the door latch engaging each interlock switch correctly. A worn latch may leave the door loose, prevent the appliance from starting, or cause it to stop when the door moves. Check for food buildup and inspect the hooks and hinges before ordering a replacement. Match the part to the full appliance model and parts diagram. Disconnect power before opening the door assembly, keep clear of internal high-voltage areas, and have a qualified technician test the interlock system after repair.

Mirowave door latch
While installing a filter in my brand new never been used microwave range hood combo I snapped off the top door latch with my elbow. After a few expletives I search You Tube and found it was a simple fix. I ordered a replacement latch from this site. It arrived in three days and it took 5 minutes to fix.
