Support bracket that secures the microwave door handle. Installs inside the door panel. Replace if cracked, broken, or shattered from regular use.
Since I have already made this same repair twice (once on my own appliance and once on a neighbor's), I'm getting pretty adept at it! Here are the steps: 1. Remove microwave oven door. 2. Using a putty knife, gently pry out the black plastic outer bezel. 3. Remove two visible screws near the latches that secure the inner prongy metal frame. 4. Using a putty knife and/or screw driver, lever up the metal frame by releasing the small tabs on one or two sides - (this is the trickiest part of the... Read more
Microwave tripping breaker? A faulty door switch is often the cause. This safety switch ensures operation only when door is closed. Moderate DIY repair.
Similar to other stories on here, the microwave was repeatedly tripping the circuit breaker, usually when opening the door. Plugged microwave into a different outlet/circuit, and problem traveled to that breaker, so definitely issue within the appliance. Turned out to be door interlock switch. This model has 3 switches: 2 x AP4512903 (00617228, the Primary and Secondary interlock switches) and 1 x AP4512904 (00617229, the Monitor switch). It was only the Monitor switch that was defective, but... Read more

Uncouple the wires attached to the switches and pull the bracket out. Then carefully pull the switches out of the housing with a small screw... Read more
Replacement door handle for microwave ovens. Installs on the exterior door panel. Needed when handle is cracked, broken, or pulled loose from supports.
So, you would think that Bosch would make the door handle a TAD more accessible for a quick replacement and repair. You have to first remove the plastic lining on the back of the door, then the black metal surround that holds the inner glass to be able to get to the two screws that hold the door handle supports. It takes some patience as most of these two peices and "snap" in and you just have to carefully see how the two components are held in to remove them without breaking them. So.... 1 -... Read more
Microwave won't start or trips the breaker? This circuit protection fuse opens during overloads or shorts to protect components. Easy fix after resolving cause.
Microwave would trip the breaker when I would press start. So I looked on Google and found on Youtube which indicated it could be a door switch.
