Margo D Tarpley , TX March 17, 2019 Appliance: Whirlpool 27" Built-In Electric Combo Sensor/Sc (Gold Line) GMC275PDS07 Microwave stated ‘door open’ and would not work. I read up on others with this problem of microwave-wall oven combination Whirlpool Gold. We live in a very rural area and were not able to get ANYONE to service it - had 2 companies come out to inspect but they never returned. I have wonderful news! We replaced the fuse, bus fuse, and light bulb (quit working 2 years ago) and all is working. Thanks for the information and for the part diagram. Couldn't have done it without you.

Mitchell P North Bend , WA July 03, 2026 Appliance: KitchenAid 27" Built-In Electric Double Oven Thermal Convection Lower Microwave Convection KEMC378KSS01 Microwave open door error code then no light or power Appliance is Kitchen Aid combination oven and microwave built in. Got door open fault on microwave, meaning door switch is worn out. In attempt to troubleshoot, I snapped closed the right side door latch. This blew the 20A line fuse. Purchased both. Watch video on replacing the microwave light bulb show how to slide out microwave. There is only one door switch and it is on the right side. Accessible using two long needle nose pliers. Pull off three terminals, remove old switch, install new switch and install wires onto terminals in correct location. Fuse is above microwave behind the control panel. Consider getting the fuse holder if oven is older (mine circa 2004/5) My fuse holder had heat damage but was able to clean it up enough to get good contact with the new fuse. Old door switch tested good, but was intermittent. Both parts put microwave back in service. Also you'll need to slide out the whole ovens assembly from its built in location enough to get the control panel tilted to be removed. Some screws are small square drive, most are Phillips.
