I have a question,when the microwave runs with the door open and let’s say you put something in it while it’s running,Will the heat damage you?
😀
Thank you. Very helpful.
I talked my husband into trying this fix when he wanted to call a repairman. After I insisted on showing him this video, he managed to identify the faulty secondary door switch and even got the thing to work again. We have a new one ordered (less than $5 on Amazon), and our microwave now stays off when the door is opened. More importantly, it was a huge ego boost that we were able to get the job done ourselves. Thanks a million!
You are welcome. We are glad you got it to work again. 😃
Microwaves seem to be usually pretty cheap to replace these days. I know there are always more expensive models though. For me, it seems a lot safer and easier to just get a new microwave.
Congratulations. Well done. I will show my husband this video too. He can fix most things with the right video help, tools and parts.
If your wife doesn't find you handsome, she should at least find you handy.😊 Good video. Well explained. Right to the point.
Thanks Scott! 😀
This might be one of the best DIY videos I've ever watched! We had the exact same problem and had no idea how to fix it! Now we're good to go! Thank you!!
You are welcome and thank you for your comment!😀
Huge help, simple to follow, and grateful you don’t drag it out for a long time. Thank you!!
You are welcome, Janet! Glad it helped! 😀
Thanks for the great video. I was able to change out my faulty door switch with a new one in minutes. My wife was shocked I finished this during half time of the Patriots game.
You are welcome. At least it didn't interrupt the game. 😄
This was exactly the solution to our microwave problems! Thank you!
You did a great job of walking through the process, giving a clear view of all of the pieces and steps, and doing it all in the real kitchen - it was really smooth for us to follow along during our own repairs and pause/unpause your video along the way!
Even the tiny stuff like showing where to pull back on the plastic locks to get the switches out was helpful.
Thank you all once again!
Thanks Chris! We are glad you got your microwave fixed. 😀
Three years after uploading, your video is still saving hapless homeowners like me from unnecessarily buying a new microwave. Thank you so much!
You are welcome Dr Kate. We bought a new home and after 3 month the microwave went on us, so we changed the switches in this one too. LOL
I have a comment posted from a year or so ago, and today I had to replace yet another switch in the old microwave. I returned to this video, and it just made my day (again). The clarity, the step-by-step approach, and the kindness and supporting manner of the entire video is just wonderful. My wife still thinks I'm a DIY hero, and I am NOT telling her my secret to this success..... Thanks for this great video.
Thanks Brian, we are glad the video could help again and again. BTW don't worry your sercret is safe with us. LOL
I was a TV and appliance service man back in the 60,s but had no idea how to take apart our Samsung microwave until I found your video . Would you believe
I found 2 new very old microswitches in my junk box and installed one in the microwave and it works fine now . THANK YOU ! Bob
Thank you Bob, that's funny and lucky that you found the switches in a junk box. 😀👍
Amazing video showing step by step exactly how to fix my problem. Also great that you put the amazon link as well. Was able to fix my microwave quickly and for $4.50 instead of hundreds. Thanks for the video!
Congrats on fixing your microwave. We are glad you were able to find the video helpful. 😀
Such a well-done video giving the broken-down, microwaveless person inspiration to try and fix it himself or herself. I DID IT! All thanks to you..appreciate so much your sharing this info.
You are welcome. We are glad you got your microwave fixed. 😀
Thanks for making the video! I thought I was going to have to buy a new microwave but after watching this, I was able to find the problem, make a temporarily fix, and just ordered a new switch! Thanks!!
You are welcome. We are glad you don't have to buy a new microwave. 😀
Great video! You helped me fix my Hamilton Beach microwave. The worst part was trying to get the screws off the back. Took forever for them to budge!
Excellent video! I followed the instructions and successfully replaced a faculty door switch and now our microwave works as good as new. I'm not a natural DIY person, and your video was clear, accurate, and gave me confidence to tackle the task. Thank you!
Yu are welcome! Glad it helped! 😀
Thank you so much. Had this exact problem. Reached out to 4 handymen to fix. No one called me back, so I fixed it myself in 15 minutes. Hardest part was ordering the part.
You are welcome! We are glad you found the video useful. 😃
Thank you for this video. I have a GE microwave that had the exact same symptoms as the microwave in the video. I was able to fix my micro for 4 dollars, with a part I bought on Amazon, when GE was going to charge me 90 dollars for the service call and a hourly wage for the repair. I am so glad that I found this video. Thanks again.
Thank you for your comment. We are glad you found the video helpful. 😀
@@WeRmudfun got it apart and found bad switch - switch ordered from you link, btw
@@jed1947 Thanks, glad you figured it out.
I went first to a parts site to buy the switch, but was a little afraid when I saw warnings on videos saying that capacitors retain energy and that I could seriously injure myself if I worked on the internal parts of the oven. Then I found this video - and, as luck would have it, the video demonstrates the EXACT MODEL OF MICROWAVE that I have! I followed the instructions and - bingo! No more fan running with the door open. Thank you!
We are glad it worked for you. 😀
Thanks for the clear 'how-to' directions and for not racing through it so quickly. Mine is a Maytag, but the steps you describe for accessing the switches was almost identical. Have located the bad switch and put it all back together again while waiting for my Amazon delivery. Because of your DIY video, I'm well equipped to install the new switch once it arrives. Thanks a million!!! Good stuff!
You are welcome. Good Luck. 😀
Hey Chuck! My husband (also named Chuck) and I wanted to thank you so much for this video! Our microwave was having this same problem. I was about to buy a new one but thought I’d check out TH-cam to see what I could find. Your video came up first. We took ours apart, ordered the switch, three days later...BAM! Microwave works like new. Spending $5.50 over $200+ never felt so good. Thank you so much!!!
Hi Kara, your husband has a great name, BTW! LOL We are glad you found the video useful and got your microwave fix. It has amazed us how many people have had this type of problem with their microwave. 😀
Hey WeRmudfun. I want to thank you for making this detailed video on taking not only the torque screw out but also what was wrong inside the switch. It has saved me a ton of time trying to figure it out! Thank you!!
You are welcome Jeremy. We are glad you found it useful. 😀
You are the very best that TH-cam has to offer. Thank you for a great DIY tutorial.
Thank you! 😃
I ordered this switch online for $8 and just changed it out myself. Very simple if you follow these instructions and just saved over $100 for service call and labor. Thank You...
You are welcome, we are glad your microwave works again. 😃
Best video ever! So clear, illustrative and concise. Thanks so much!
You are so welcome! Thank you for your comment. 😃
You just saved us so much money. Video was great and my husband and I completed the repair just as you demonstrated. Thank you!
You are welcome! 😀
Thanks for this video! I had the exact same problem as you, and $9.95 and 20 minutes later, it's fixed. I wouldn't have called a repair man because of the cost, so the microwave would have just ended up in a landfill for such a simple problem. I appreciate people like you on the Internet!
Nice work!
this guy is so clear and well spoken. You even opened the parts and showed the mechanical issue that was causing the failure. I am subscribing to your channel! Great Job!
Wow, thanks! 😀
Thank you so much!!!! I was able to fix my microwave and saved almost $300 on a new one!!! Thank you a million times!!!!!!
You are welcome. We are glad you found the video useful! 😀
Just had the same thing happen to my Samsung microwave. Thanks for posting simple, money saving fix. Just like your RV vids, simple and straight to the point!
You are welcome and thank you for following both channels Micheal!😀
Thank you. Great video. Easy to follow directions, clear, concise, and right to the point. I was about to buy a new microwave until I saw your video. Everything is exactly as you described. Good switches clicked and the bad one didn't. Took the bad one out and the new part will be here on Monday.
Glad it was helpful! 😀
Wow...I had my doubts that the problem could be related to the door switch, but decided I'd check. Everything on my GE microwave was exactly the same as you described. Even the configuration of the three switches. I found a replacement switch down at my local appliance parts company and had it working again in short order. Saved me $300 or so. Thank you!!!
You are welcome.
Nicely done! Easy to hear and understand you. Explained everything well. One of the best DIY videos I have ever watched on TH-cam. Thanks for making this video!!
Wow, thank you for your comment, we appreciate it! 😀
BEST VIDEO EVER!! Excellent, easy to follow, and right on point!! When this happened to my microwave last night my husband had it fixed in about 10 minutes after watching this video. THANK YOU so much for posting this!
Thanks! We are glad you got you microwave fixed. 😀
This video was so helpful to us! We have a KitchenAid microwave, so we had to do a couple of different things before finding the door switches: we removed the screws and trim around the microwave, and, removed the screws and stainless steel housing. Then we could remove the control panel and see the door switch assembly inside the unit and to the left of the control panel. KitchenAid is made by Whirlpool, and once we removed the faulty switch we could see the stamp on the switch and order the right replacement switch, using the model number of our microwave. After we replaced the switch and put it back together the microwave worked again. Bravo!
We are glad you found the video useful! 😀
Chuck - your tip about fixing the switch itself was AWESOME. Did that & reinstalled just to make sure that was our issue. It was. Have ordered 2 replacement switches, just in case. Yay for a microwave that works!
Glad you got your microwave fixed.
I love people that can do a video in simple,and clear language and see the details I need to see.Great information,Thanks.
You are welcome. Glad you found it useful.😀
+1 Great video. The side by side comparison of good and bad switches really helped. I was able to temporarily fix my current switch. Really having a hard time finding a replacement switch for my microwave.
Thank you so much! Your directions were so clear (unlike other videos) and my husband was able to repair thanks to you. It was easy peasy with your help and saved us tons of money!!!
Glad it helped! 😀
Thank you! I was able to successfully repair the clip on my microwave after watching this video. Well done!
Glad it helped. 😃
Awesome video! The fact that I was able to actually fix my Samsung microwave is surely a credit to your mighty powers of instruction 😁
LOL We are glad you found the video helpful. 😀
Thank you for posting this video. I just repaired my microwave and I am sure I saved myself $$$$. Awesome! Video.
You are welcome. We are glad you found the video helpful. 😀
Thank you so much! I was able to fix my microwave door switch just as you pointed out. I never would have though the switch. Thanks again!
You are welcome!
Did exactly what you showed. Now back to normal! No morr rushing food in and out of the microwave quickly! Thank you!!
We aer glad you got your microwave working again. 😃
I'm grateful I found you Chuck. I have a 12 year old LG microwave oven and I can hear the fan go on when opening the door. Never happened in all the years I've had it. So, I have high hopes this is an easy fix. Thankyou.
You are welcome, we hope it works for you. Remember we are not professional techs. 😀
Thank you for posting this great instructional video! I had the same issue (microwave NOT shutting off) and My Samsung had the exact same switch issue (lowest one was bad). I ordered the new switch and replace=ing it was not hard BECAUSE of your video! Gary in Missouri.
Hi Gary. We are happy you found the video helpful.
Thank you SO much! This video was extremely helpful! Our microwave started running when we opened the door, but we can't get a new one until late next week, so this temporary fix is perfect!
You're welcome! We are glad you found it helpful! 😀
Worked perfectly as shown in the video! My switch was exactly the same as the one in the video - the third/bottom-most switch was bad. Replaced it within ten minutes and microwave works like a charm! Thanks for such a great video!
Glad it helped! 😀
Great video!,👍 I have ( looks the same) a microwave with the same issue! I checked the switches and found the last one didn’t click. Replaced the switch ,after receiving the new one, and the microwave works perfectly! Thank you! The video was a great help!
Thank You! We are glad you found the video helpful..😃
Thank you for the help. Turned out all my switches were good but the switch holder was not holding the bottom switch properly. You instructions were good enough for me to easily figure out the problem with my GE, model XL1800 microwave. I'm subscribed for sure!
We are glad you were able to fix your microwave. 😀
I thought I might be buying a new microwave, but decided to check "the internet" first! Thank you for taking the time to show us this; it gave me confidence to try. I am lucky to have appliance parts available nearby, so although I was able to fix the switch to very the problem, I bought a new switch, cleaned the whole unit and it is like a new microwave. Just thank you sir!
We thought we would be buying a new one too when it happened. We are happy you found the video useful. 😀
@@WeRmudfun Same process worked well on my Whirlpool. In my case one switch was stuck and tapping it released the mechanism and all is well. Thanks
@@denniscarlson8135 We are glad you were able to get your microwave working again.
Me too all the way from nairobi kenya
Nice easy fix. Repair man quoted me $200. 😂. Fixed it for $10 and 30 minutes of my time.
Thank you for the video.
Nice work!
Thanks a MILLION for this video! I searched so long for the answer to my dead Maytag microwave since I felt it had to be something small since everything else still worked (fan, light, etc.) and it wasn't even that old despite everyone constantly telling me to "just buy a new one" (without offering to pay for it or install it of course - Lol). Anyway, I did exactly what you showed (very well and easy to understand) in your video and even replaced the same door switch since I wasn't quite sure (the very bottom one) and now it is working perfectly again after a YEAR of sitting dead above my stove...
You're welcome Holly! Glad you got your microwave fixed! 😀
I found my switches both tested good with an ohm meter but one had a distinct click and the other did not. I was skeptical but went ahead and ordered a couple replacements from Amazon. Much to my surprise the new switches solved the problem. I saved the one that still clicked for the next time. Thanks for a great video!
Thanks! Glad you got it fixed! 😀
Hi, just had this same issue occur within the past 3 days at my home. Thank you for your video. I consider myself handy, but lack the technical knowledge to do certain things in my own. I figured it was and easy fix, but being my first time diving into a microwave, I needed and little more direction. I did a quick repair by straightening the rounded metal. I’ll be getting a new switch soon. 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Way to go! We straightened out the metal the first time too. It doesn't last, but it buy you the time to order a new switch. 😀
Thanks. Fixed my moms. She was going to buy a new microwave before I said let me do a search first. Great instructions sir
We are glad you got her microwave fixed. 😀
Huge help, thank you. While my issue turned out to be the inside plastic activator needing to be re-seated (my teenage son slams the door like it cheated on him) this video definitely directed me to right process.
Glad you got it fixed. This gave us a laugh this morning. LOL
😂
I just needed your video. My samsung has the same problem and I was looking all around, then.....I found you. Good video, easy fixing. I will do it tomorrow. I am glad you exist. Go on helping people with your work. Very greatful ! Ramon Perera, Miami.
Thanks Ramon. Be careful and good luck! 😀
thank you for sharing this fix! it worked perfectly. the leaf spring was not bent on mine but just became sticky over time. i just cleaned the moving parts with alcohol...and it was good to go! you are a lifesaver. we thought we need to replace the mw. happy new year!
Glad it helped! Happy New Year to you too! 😀
Thank you! Using your instructions, I was able to fix my microwave. Saved at least $100 compared to calling a repairman.
Great job and Thank You for the "Thanks' We appreciate it! 😀
I just had this problem with my microwave. Followed this video to troubleshoot and then ordered the part and replaced. After putting it back together, it worked as advertised. Thanks for this video.
We are glad you found the video useful. 😀
Thanks for the excellent video; I ordered the switch and were back in business for short money!
Glad it could help! 😃
Just finished up this project. An excellent video! At first, the microwave demonstrated the open-door-fan issue, but later failed to heat. The repair on a GE model JVM6175DF1WW tracked closely to the Samsung in the source video. Minor variation was that the control panel is attached by two screws - one of which is in plain sight, but the other must be removed from the top of the control panel down through the vent. Only one switch turned out to be bad - the FD-63 which was located lowest in the switch bracket. Thanks a bunch for the help!
Congrats. We are glad you found the video useful. It is amazing how many microwaves have a problem with those switches. 😀
MY LG microwave started doing this today and I thought I would have to trash it. Now at least I know it can be repaired, although I may look for a repair shop. Many thanks
Good luck. 😀
AWESOME!! Great video. My microwave is a GE SpaceSaver, but all the same components. I was able to take it apart as instructed within 10 minutes. I could easily tell the top two switches were fine... So I took the bottom switch off, opened the small blue switch box, cleaned it a bit and it started working again. All fixed. I still plan on ordering a switch to have on hand. But where can I venmo you some money? Your video was worth a few bucks for sure!! THANK YOU!!
We got your email too. We are glad you got your microwave to start working again.😀
Just ran into this issue w/ my GE microwave and this helped a lot! I especially appreciate you going through taking apart the switch. I was able to take mine apart and get it clicking again while I'm waiting for the new switch to come in. Thanks!
Glad it helped! 😀
Thank you so much for this informational video. It helped me fix our microwave. A pack of 2 switches was less than $9.00. This was well worth the effort for someone who is NOT handy like myself.
Excellent!
Thank you so much. Your video is perfectly clear. I believe even I could have done this, but my husband quickly replaced our faulty switch with the part ordered from Amazon. So happy not to have to microwave my hands and arms anymore on our GE Profile!
You're welcome! Glad you got it fixed. 😀
I watched your video and decided to try the temporary fix until I get new switches. It worked!! Thank you.
Glad it helped 😀
I viewed this video when my microwave did the same thing in 2021. Now I'm back because a switch broke again, and needed a refresher on how to solve it. This video is a godsend. NOTE: UNPLUG THE MICROWAVE FIRST BEFORE REPAIR!!!
Glad it helped you again. BTW Unplugging the microwave was the first step at timestamp 0:45. 😀
I thought this was wonderful diagnosis of the problem. You made it very simple and was able to determine which switch was bad. Couldn’t get the connector off the switch! Ugh. To have gotten so far. I’ve looked at many other videos. All seem like it should just slide right off. Don’t know if LG put some type of lock on it. Thank you though for the clear easy directions.
Thank you. We are surprised to hear that the wire wouldn't come off the switch. It is the first time we have heard that. We hope you get it figured out. 😀
Thank you. Your video was helpful. I flattened my Spring steel and flipped it over. Put one side in then tucked the other into place.
We are glad you got your microwave to work properly again. 😀
A microwave never made the "I can't with without..." list, until now. 😄 Thanks for the video! My Frigidaire also ran with the door open. But within a few days, wouldn't start but the timer counted down as if it had. It wasn't difficult to replace the switch. Associated Parts & Supply is local & had part available w/tax, under $6.
That is awesome!
Thank you so much for the tutorial! Fixed my GE microwave exactly as you've shown with your Samsung.
You are welcome. Glad to hear you had success. 😀
Thank you so much for this video. I fixed my microwave following your instructions!!
We are glad you got your microwave fixed. 😀
Thank you for sharing my wife’s wife’s microwave will be running fine it was broken just like you said I watched your video and I repaired it thank you very much you get a like!!
Glad you got the microwave fixed. 🙂
this is the second issue i have had to fix on my less than a year old Toshiba . Toshiba communicated well with me lots of emails etc.. they said they were sending refund. several months later I have not received refund. So THANK YOU for the quiet, detailed, and great instructional video. I'm a single female 72 and appreciate your help.
I'm glad the video helped..You Go Girl!
Got it running until I get the part. Your pictures of the switch were very helpful getting it back together. Thankyou.
Glad it helped
Thanks! I temporarily fixed the faulty switch and ordered a new one! Great video!
You're welcome! 😀
Thank you! Out of work special ed teacher... this was very helpful!
You're very welcome!

What a blessing and coin saver to have a husband who's handy!
Thank you. Yes it is. 😀
Thanks so much. Had the same switch go bad in mine and replaced it and my microwave works now.
You are welcome. Glad it works now. Beats buying a new microwave. 😀
Thank you! Your an excellent instructor!
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent. Quick and straight to the point. Thank you
You are welcome! 😀
Thank you so much, you saved my microwave oven from going to the trash and saved me money.
We are glad you were able to fix your microwave. 😀
This was fantastic. We have a GE and it was the exact same as this. Same switch even. I opened it up to repair it long enough to get the new one. Thanks so much
Glad it helped! 😀
Worked great and saved us buying a new microwave. Thanks!
You are welcome. Glad to hear it worked for you! 😀
Hi another Chuck here. I had replaced a faulty switch before, and two years later like you it was bad (bottom one too). This comes from kids slamming the microwave door. Alas. Thank you for showing removal of the switch housing - Torx screws. You can use a just-right Allen wrench too.
I had broken two of the retaining clips when removing the switches and had to tack superglue at the edges. This will be a pain next time but it worked.
As you mentioned one can use a beeping ohmmeter to see the switch short when the button is held down.
HI. We had heard that the switch go bad due to the door being slammed. I hate to think of all the microwaves that got replaced for about a $5.00 fix.
Thank you - this totally worked for me on my GE Profile microwave! Was over and done in under 5 minutes.
You are welcome. We are glad you got it fixed. 😀
Great instructional video. I’ll try the repair myself.
Thanks.
Thank you! 😀
Thank you. This was exactly what I needed. I have a similar SAMSUNG model and other than couple screws were placed differently to take the front panel off, every step matched exactly.
Glad it worked for you. 😊
We fixed our microwave. Thank you very much for this info. 👍
You are welcome. We are glad it worked for you. :)
Nice and simple video. Good job! Thanks for the switch tips
You are welcome, we are happy you found them useful. 😀
THANKYOU so much!!!! I really appreciate your thorough instructions and photos of exactly what I needed to succeed at this repair. PERFECT !! Thanks man!!
We are happy you fixed your microwave.
BOOM! Thanks to you!! Saved me hundreds of dollars!! Great job !! Thanks
Thank you for this video. I had a GE on the fritz and this video helped save me a ton.
Glad it helped!
Thanks for the great video. I had the same problem on my Samsung SMH1816W Microwave. I saved $100+ repair cost with a $5 part from Amazon. I fixed the problem in about 20 minutes (age 81).
Nice. You Rock!!! We are glad you got it fixed. 😃
Thank you! I was unable to reassemble the switch after straightening the tension piece so I bent it back into an arch, reassembled and straightened it while in the assembly
You are welcome. Glad you got your microwave fixed.
Great video! Exactly the information I needed to fix my microwave. Thank you.
Glad it helped! 😊
Thank you for detailed instructions!
You are welcome!😃
Great Video. I had the same problem and replaced all 3 switches. The bottom one failed and I opened it up and it was full of grease and it was burned. I opened the middle and upper switches and the points were only slightly burned so I disassembly both and used emery paper on a flat surface to remove the pits. I will save these as serviceable switches. I believe the failure occurred on the bottom switch because it had excessive grease in it . The other two were almost dry. :)
Thanks Mike! It's sound like you tackle problems the same way we do when it comes to fixing them. Nice Job.
@@WeRmudfun I was very lucky when I was 16; I worked with an appliance repairman 50 years ago. He used to take apart washer timers and showed me how to clean the points and bend the internals to get clean flat parallel surfaces. All analog mechanical thermostats, timers and switches have these points that burn over time. Later I got my mechanical engineering degree from Virginia Tech but that has nothing to do with mechanical aptitude which I always tell people. Cheers!
Chuck for President! Thanks! Worked like a charm.
Lol, but I'm happy doing what I do now, no time to run the country. Glad you got it fixed. 😀
Thanks for the great video. Had to buy some Torx Security bits to get into the microwave and found the bad switch. I'm sure it will work fine after I make the replacement. Appreciate the video and the great instructions.
You are welcome. Good luck with the repair. 😀
@@WeRmudfun The switches arrived only cost $8 for two. The tabs on the new switches were wider than the ones in the microwave. Had to use a Dremel tool to make the tabs narrower to match to original ones so the the electrical connectors would fit. Reassembled and Microwave works great for the cost of the switches and the Torx $7 bits. 😁
@@HCJB5 Congrats! We are glad it all worked out for you. 😀
