Parts for Lg LTM9000ST / CS6ELGA: Section 1 Parts

This door latch assembly for a microwave engages the door hooks and actuates the interlock switches so the unit recognizes a closed door, restoring proper latching and helping ensure the oven only operates when securely shut.

• Engages the door hooks to trigger the interlock switches and signal "door closed"
• Can help resolve no-start or "Door/Open-Close" indications with the door shut
• Addresses a door that won't latch, feels loose, or shows cracked/worn latch parts
• Built to mount in the original location and interface with existing door switches

• Disconnect power before service; microwaves contain high-voltage components that can retain a dangerous charge
• Access typically requires removing the control panel to reach the latch/interlock bracket
• Note switch orientation and spring positions; transfer any reusable hardware from the old assembly
• After installation, verify firm door engagement and proper interlock switch actuation before restoring power

The Door Latch Spring is a genuine OEM part for LG microwaves. As a key component of the microwave, the door latch spring is responsible for providing the tension needed to securely close and latch the microwave door. It works behind the scenes to ensure a tight seal when the door is shut.

Symptoms of a bad door latch spring include:

• The microwave door not closing or latching properly 
• Gaps appearing around the door seal when shut
• Difficulty opening and closing the door

Causes of a bad door latch spring can include wear and tear over time. Exposure to excessive door slamming can also place undue stress on the spring.

This genuine LG OEM  replacement part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore microwaves.
