Gerald G St. Louis , MO August 05, 2019 Appliance: Model KENMORE MODEL 790.80363310 Microwave blew line fuse It took a long time to determine the problem but eventually I discovered that the plastic bracket (latch hook) that held the three door-switches showed appreciable wear from repeated door openings and closings. This wear stopped the door from sealing properly and the door switch safety mechanism blew the line fuse. I replaced the worn bracket (AP6230612) as well as the plastic latch mechanism (AP4553585) on the door that engages this bracket (and of course the fuse too) and the microwave now works properly.

Nesbert I Summerville , SC December 23, 2019 Microwave was tripping circuit breaker. I ordered these parts. Found the latch was worn from use of opening and closing the door. Also replaced switches as one would stick sometimes. Put back together works like a charm. Also you don't have to remove microwave from wall to fix and while in there check fuse. Make sure to unplug before working on it. Read More... 8 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers
Michael A Hoover , AL November 18, 2019 Appliance: Electrolux Microwave, Over-The-Range FGMV175QFA One of the clips on the latch hook that holds a switch in place broke then when I would go to hit start the main breaker would trip I called local suppliers and they didn't have the parts, so I got on the internet and found appliance parts pros.com and they had my parts at my front door in 24 hours. I love this company. YOU don't realize how much you use a microwave till it's broke down. My wife thinks I am a hero. THANKS.
