Jay W Waxhaw , NC April 22, 2017 Appliance: Samsung Built-In Microwave Oven SMH9207ST/XAA-0001 Microwave oven fan would come one when i opened the door I did some searching on the internet to see if others had the same issue I was having. There were many who had the same problem and everyone of them fixed it by changing out the latch switches, which in my case, were part of the latch body assembly. So I ordered the part from AppliancePartPros and it arrived on Tuesday, 2 business days after I ordered it, which was just as expected. I had also done some research regarding how to replace the latch body assembly and, although I couldn't find anything on my exact microwave, I found enough information that helped me understand what I needed to do and look for. The first thing I did was unplugged the microwave. I then unscrewed the two screws that held on the top plate above the door and removed that panel. That then exposed a single screw that held the panel that covered all of the electronic controls. I took that screw out, slide the panel up some and was then able to pull it out exposing the wires and harnesses. I noticed there were two screws holding in the latch body assembly so I removed those screw, pulled out the assembly and disconnected the wires to the assembly, keeping close track of which connections went to which connectors on the assembly. I then took the new assembly, attached the connectors, put it in place and replaced the screws. I then replaced the control panel and reattached the screw holding it in. Then I put the top panel back on and replace those two screws. Then I plugged in the microwave. Everything now works like a charm. Very easy fix. Took maybe 15-20 minutes.
