Burney,

I take for granted, you mean the latch on the door, not the catch / switch assembly inside the microwave.

These instructions, should get you through the repair,

Good Luck,
:cool: :cool: :cool:


1. Unplug microwave oven or disconnect
power.
2. Open the microwave oven door.
3. Pry the choke cover away from the top
door pin, and remove the top pin from the
pivot bracket. Lift the door off the bottom

bracket, and remove it.
4. Place the oven door front side down on a
padded surface.
5. Remove the choke screws from the door

frame
6. Starting at the top right corner , pry
the choke cover out with a putty knife,
and unsnap it from the choke. Only remove
the top, bottom and right sides of
the choke cover at this time. You will remove
the handle end of the choke cover

later.
7. Starting at the top edge of the door near
the center and working clockwise, use a
putty knife, and pry the latching tabs of
the choke out of the door frame slots. Lift
the choke as you release the tabs so they
do not snap back into the slots. NOTE:

When you reach the handle side of door,
pull both the choke and the choke cover
away from the door frame, and then separate

the two components
8. To remove the door switch actuators from
the choke, remove the screw from each

actuator

REASSEMBLY NOTE: When you reinstall
the door on the oven, insert the top pin into
the pivot bracket and press down on the pin

until it snaps into place
