Then one of the micro switches either has failed or has slid out of position

Here is the door latch you need to order.

KitchenAid wants $58 for the replacement bulb. I bought it for $1.99 from www.lightbulbsdirect.com and it works just fine. The Item number is Q5G412V. It is a halogen 5-watt, 12-volt bipen G-4. Replacing the bulb requires some dismantling of the microwave. At first I was nervous about removing so many parts to get to the bulb but in the end it really wasn't so bad. The only tool I needed was a Phillips screwdriver. I surfed the net a eventually found instructions left by a friendly Blogger that guided me through the whole process. KitchenAid engineers were so STUPID when they designed this microwave. It takes two hours to replace a bulb that should take 5 minutes. Oddly enough, replacing the bulb in the normal oven below the microwave oven is a piece of cake.

Had the same problem and bought the part online. It's not difficult to replace, simply hold the door by the handle as you loosen the 2 screws. Put the face of the door on the floor and remove 2 screws holding the plastic insert. You will have to remove the front vent panel (2 Screws) just below the microwave door.Then you might have to move the oven vent over to get to the final 2 screws on the bottom of the plastic panel. Once you have the palstic panel off the springs are exposed, simply look at how it is placed in the holder before you remove the damaged one. Replace and then re-assemle the door.

The micorwave oven light does not work and when I push start, the word DOOR shows on the screen and beeps 3 times. The oven will not start.

Try unplugging it or flipping the breaker to the oven. Leave the power off to it for a minute, then turn it back on.

That would likely be a faulty door switch. Remove two screws to remove the swich. Then pull the two wires from the switch and replace the switch.

What happened? I've got the same problem and can't find answers anywhere. I'm divorced with two kids and no money to call someone right now this is incredibly upsetting...please email me if you resolved the problem at [email protected] Mary

You need to take the door off and apart. Glass is very hard to clean as the dirt bakes on it, so if you want it to look like new then just buy a new piece of glass.
