• Interfaces with the door latch hooks to actuate the safety door switches
• Ensures the microwave only runs when the door is fully closed
• Useful when the original interlock is cracked, loose, or out of alignment

• Disconnect power before service; microwaves can retain dangerous high voltage even when unplugged
• Access is typically behind the control panel; over-the-range units may need to be taken down for service
• Mount securely and verify the door latch hooks smoothly actuate the switches
• After reassembly, test door closure and start/stop operation before regular use
