Chucker September 18, 2022 for Model Number WMH73521CS-6 When you hit start the micro wave doesn't start. A message reads open the door and close again. It still dosen't start. I found by pushing up with the door open a few times the micro wave starts and completes the cooking time. It works fine for awhile then you have to do the same procedure of pushing up on the door before I close the door. There must be a alignment problem with the switch.
1 Answer Chucker, This issue will most likely be with the door switches on the unit and would suggest replacing all 3 of them. Read More...

Teresa February 25, 2020 for Model Number Whirlpool WMH31017FW-0 microwave the light flickered for a while and now it will not work and says door. what parts to i need to replace?
1 Answer Teresa, it is likely that there is an issue with the door switches. With the microwave unplugged, the vent grill removed, and the control panel opened up, the door switches can be tested for continuity with the door open and closed to identify if they are operating as necessary. If the door switches have failed, they would need to be replaced with the interlock W11244494. If the door switches test properly, then the most likely failure is going to be with the main control W11552018. Read More...
