Is there a specific way to remove the oven door light switch in order to replace it? It's a wall oven...need to pull out the whole thing? Thanks! Karen

In order to unlatch and remove the switch you have to remove the frame around the microwave which is not very simple. Instead, you can just carefully (remove the power from the oven first) break the old switch into pieces and remove it from the frame. Remove the wires from the old switch and connect them to the new one. Push the new switch in place. Gene.
