How To Fix Panasonic Microwave Door Release Button. As always this is a microwave and carries quite a punch if not properly service and discharged. Where can I get a replacement part.
The door latch lever assembly usually consists of a paddle or button that either pivots downward or pushes into the control panel. If the door on your microwave oven wont open you may have a problem with the door latch lever. I suspect the door switch because for about a week it seemed to need extra pressure on the door.
My 2012 NN-SD297SR microwave has become unresponsive and unpredictable.
If the door hook is broken replace it. If the button wont push in to open the microwave door one of the little ears that holds the button in place has broke off and is keeping the button fron being depress. This is a genuine OEM item made by Panasonic. It then contacts the door latch assembly and releases the door hooks to allow you to open the door.
