I used a Google search to show how to access the area behind the front panel. There was a folded paper copy with a schematic and wiring diagram in that space.Then I used a multi-meter to determine which of the THREE micro-switches was causing the problem. I called your help line and ordered a replacement switch. The switch was delayed in transit so your agent credited me with the cost of shipping.
When the part arrived, it had three terminals instead of two as shown in the on-line picture but that did not cause any difficulty in using it. It took about 20 minutes to remove and replace the old switch.
All seems to be working well now.
Finding which of the THREE switches was the problem was the most difficult part of the repair. All three "clicked" but the defective one did not click as easily. It needed to be depressed more than the door latch can would provide. Old age?
IMPORTANT: DO NOT TOUCH THE REPLACEMENT LAMP WITHOUT WEARING CLEAN GLOVES. FILM OR FINGER PRINTS ON THE LAMP GLASS WILL CAUSE PREMATURE FAILURE OF THE LAMP.
Remove the 4 screws on right and left mounting rails that hold the unit to the kitchen cabinet. Remove the oven door Remove the chrome oven vent strip below the oven door. This allows a pry point beneath the combo microwave oven assembly to lift up the unit while pulling it out. (Assembly weighs 250 pounds) Pull the unit out from the cabinet housing about 2-3 inches to reveal the right and left sides and the 4 screws holding the the control panel. Remove the 4 control panel screws and pull off the face of the control panel Remove the 2 harness connectors and the ground wire holding the control panel to the unit. Unclip the circuit board above the lamp connector and slide it back out of the way. The lamp is now accessible. Remove the lamp spring holding the lamp to the cabinet. Remove the old lamp Install the new lamp using clean gloves Reassemble in reverse order.
First - Be certain to order both button and button holder, in same order (I ordered separately, after realizing I would need both, since interlocking, paid 2 delivery charges) Turn off breaker, unscrew from cabinet, pull out far enough to access 4 tiny star screws (2 each side) line up button and insert into holder, push into hole in glass. Sensor clicks into button holder. Look at other buttons to see alignment. Screw back together
