This door switch, also known as a safety switch, is a genuine OEM replacement part for microwaves. It is a safety mechanism that sends signals to the microwaves control system, telling it when the door is open/closed. This ensures that the microwave only operates when the door is securely shut and switches off as soon as the door is open....Read more Over time, this switch can become worn out or damaged. A faulty door switch can result in failure to switch the microwave on/off, lack of heat, and running with the door open. To confirm that the door switch is faulty, use a multimeter to test for electrical failure. To remove the faulty switch, disconnect the wiring connectors and take note of where they are positioned. Place the new switch in position and reattach the wiring connectors to the appropriate terminals and close the microwave door to check that the switch engages appropriately.

This high-voltage diode is designed for use within various makes and models of microwaves and is a genuine OEM part that converts alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC). If you notice your microwave turns on and starts but does not heat anything, this diode is likely responsible. You can check the continuity of the diode with a...Read more multimeter before outright replacing it, but it is important to remember that doing any repairs on a microwave and dealing with sensitive electrical components should be done carefully and with the appropriate precautions to avoid any hazards. To replace the high-voltage diode in your microwave, disconnect it from power and allow it to discharge. Using the appropriate screwdrivers, gain access to the control panel of the microwave. Using an insulated screwdriver, release any electrical charge in the capacitor by touching it across the terminals. Then you can remove any hardware securing the diode, including the harness connecting it to the capacitor, which may be easiest done with pliers. Connect the new diode to the capacitor terminal and the securing bracket, and then reassemble your microwave before connecting it to power again.

Remove top grille (2 screws), undo control panel (1 screw). Tilt down control panel, switches are on the left. There are actually three switches that are involved with the door, two horizontally mounted, one vertically mounted. This would be an EASY REPAIR, but it took me a while to figure out which of the three switches was bad, and a
... Read morelso took a while to figure out that there is a plastic rod that inserts through the hole in the switch body. Once i figured this out went like a breeze. Lower horizontal switch was the bad one, but since the kit came with two switches i went ahead and replaced the upper horizontal one as well. IT appears that the horizontal switches are probably more likely to fail than the vertical switch based on the position of the switch and force angles. Works great now!

After removing screw I pushed up on panel and it came off to expose fuse. With needle nose pliers I removed old fuse and again with pliers held new fuse in position. With th
