There are 2 screws that fasten the door to the microwave body that have become loose and will not tighten, what part is needed to resolve this issue?
Hello Mark, Thank you for the question. This could be an issue with stripped screws or the handle. We suggest replacing the two screws and handle at the same time as they both could be worn. We hope this helps.
Door is very loose. There is a vertical plate that is part of, or welded to, the frame of the microwave. The plate has two tabs that project forward for the door to connect to. The whole plate has come loose. How does it attach? It appears that it had some very small spot welds. How do you recommend it be repaired?

I first removed the top plate above the microwave door (3 screws), then I removed the plate containing the buttons and clock. The microwave has 3 relay switches and they are in a little holder. The holder was too difficult to remove so I just removed the bottom switch and replaced. The microwave started right up.
