Zorba T July 21, 2012 for Model Number Maytag over stove microwave Mod. MMV4203DWW00 Need illustration of attachment points for replacing spring on Part # DE64-o1308A (door latch)
1 Answer Zorba, First thing, we don't have the information you want, the door is not available in individual pieces W10258193 . If you're attempting to repair the door, you'll need to separate the inner door liner(choke) from the outer door panel, by removing the plastic inner door "seal", and use a putty knife to separate the outer door from the choke. You will then have access to the spring mounting tab on the inner section of the choke, and can mount the spring to the latch assembly and the door liner. Read More...

Scott May 22, 2012 for Model Number 401.80082700 The door on the microwave wouldnt stay shut. I removed the door and seperated the black cover. I found a white piece of plastic rattleing around inside, and the spring was flopping around. My question is I cant seem to find how or where the spring attaches to, or if there is something I need to replace in order to fix the problem.
1 Answer Scott, There should be a "tab" molded into the inside of the outer door panel, that the end of the spring should fit over. If the tab broke off or something similar occurred, you'll need to order the outer door panel DE64-01846B or complete door DE94-01646B Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
Jen May 02, 2012 for Model Number 401.80082700 Our microwave works fine, but the door no longer stays closed. If you hold the door closed you can use the microwave, but as soon as you release the pressure on the door, the microwave shuts off and the door opens. The problem may be the door latch or the spring, but that's just a guess. Is this something I can fix myself?
1 Answer Hello Jen. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the latch body DE96-00414A is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
