best solved my problem at Microwave Parts

Used this on my 3 year old Frigidaire Microwave. The microwave oven kept shorting out and it turned out to be the door switch. The wife was willing to buy a new one and decided I would try the door switch after trying to find the problem with a multimeter. Very easy replacement of an inexpensive part, saved me a new microwave and took very little time to repair. Nobody thought I could fix it and it was so easy. Also included was a spare door switch.

Pros
  • Excellent Construction
Cons
  • I'll write later

This fixed my microwave

My microwave broke as soon as I started cooking something. I replaced one of the door latches (after figuring out how to get to the latches and testing them for continuity) and it works now. It still fires when I open the door to pause the cooking, so there are some other issues I haven't solved. But at least I can use the microwave again if I remember to cancel the cooking process before opening the door or waiting for the cooking time to finish.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Empty

DO NOT BUY. CHARACTER in Microwave Oven Parts & Accessories

If I could rate 'NO' in one review I would but it made me vote 1. I received the parts, checked the part with an ohmmeter and it was the right decision. normally closed, installed it and started the microwave and it passed out, the switch. When I opened the door the switch went off and when I checked it with the meter it got stuck in the closed position. So this product is no good and only lasted 1 microwave cycle, rubbish and not worth my time to print and send back a refund. I'm sure manyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Wow
Cons
  • Great

3 weeks failed. Don't waste your time or $

Defective after 3 weeks. DO NOT BUY THIS. In fact, the button pressed is stuck inside and the microwave works when it's plugged in, even when it's not running. . I replaced all 3 switches 3 weeks ago and fortunately kept the old ones. First I pulled the black switch and found that it was already broken. I turned it back on, took it off and the mic works fine. I knew it was one of the gray switches that needed fixing the first time, but figured I'd buy all 3 new ones and replace when I gotโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

This product has saved me a lot of hassle and money

The part worked great. My GE microwave started tripping the circuit breaker. He is only 5 years old. I didn't want to change the microwave mainly because installing a new one is such a hassle. So I searched You Tube for a solution and found a bunch of videos stating that the most common problem was with one of the door switches. So I said what the heck let's give it a try. I did just that and found that one of the switches wasn't actually working. I ordered it and changing it was a breeze. Soโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Easy Repair Microwave Door Switch

These common micro switches are used in various appliances. Note that they come in three configurations, which can be distinguished by their terminal position and labeling: normally open (NO), normally closed (NC), and both. My microwave broke and only worked when the door was OPEN which is a major safety issue. Inside there is a plastic holder with 3 micro switches. After discharging the internal large capacitor with a grounded screwdriver, I tested the switches with an ohmmeter (you'll needโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Quality

My door had 3 switches and needed this combo pack plus an additional black switch with contacts close together (normally open). At one point, my microwave door switch blew. After disassembling and looking for switches I found that one of them had blown. I tried replacing the switches with others found on another site and this switch also burned out immediately (these burnouts appear to have occurred when the door was opened while the microwave was running, so possibly a different component came

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Very expensive
