I have a kitchenaid builtin micro YKCMS1555SS, i just noticed that there is a warp on the side of the outer metal and light escapes from it when door opens or micro operates. Are microwaves escaping?

SOURCE: leaking microwave oven???

The steam is perfectly safe, as with any other oven it has vents. Just as long as the door is shut and intact your safe.

I would recommend changing the diodes as well. This will usually take care of the problem.

Depends on the door. It likely can be adjusted they have 2 screws on the door bracket you may have to remove the cover to see them. But it also needs to be checked with a leakage meter to make sure its not leaking.

RadioShack used to make a low cost meter not certified or anything but a good way to see if its leaking.

I believe the only way of gaining access to the door latch assembly is by removing the cover. You can use needle nose pliers to grip the sides of the screws to slowly turn them out. You might want to visit this web site www.applianceaid.com enter your model number then scroll down until you see an exploded view of your model. Click to enlarge the diagram of your model exposing the latch assembly. I hope this is of help to you. If you found any of these suggestions helpful, please rate my solution. D. Lange

Yes. One of your door switches is not working. It could be an alignment issue or a faulty switch. There are actually 3 switches in the door latch area.
