Microwave oven door will not open. Over range oven.

I'd check the door switches to make sure they are all being activated when the door is closed.

Disconnect microwave from power socket, remove cabinet outer cover,and lift the top or bottom door latch at micro-switch bracket with a screwdriver, the door can then be opened.

There is an power interlock inside the oven that breaks the power connection to the magnetron when the door is open. Most likely, something is stopping the switch from opening.

Check for a small plastic probe on the door that may have broken off inside the oven keeping the circuit made. Otherwise, open the oven and see is some foreign object is keeping the connection made or if the interlock needs to be cleaned out so it can function.

Remove the cover. You should be able to access the two latches and release them. Once open you will have to take the door apart and repair the latch

The problem is the release spring is broken or the button is sticking, pick up a small can of electronic cleaner attach straw and spray into the button crevis to break down the crud, grime, and dirt this should help release the mechanism.

The model numbers on most Kenmore ranges will be located on a nameplate along the oven door, or lower drawer opening. Some models may have this information on the back of the operator console.

If this question is in reference to a microwave oven, the model number will be located along the oven door opening, or inside the oven cavity along the upper portion on either the left or right hand side.

If you need further assistance, please let me know. I hope this helps you.

open the cover of the oven you can see see the lock near the key pad. Press the lock the door will open. You can adjust the alignment by refixinfg the screws.

You can find the parts at a GE appl.dealer.

After self cleaning the range the door won't open....
The oven door lock needs approximately 1 hour to cool down before the oven door can be opened after a self cleaning cycle has finished. If the lock does not open after the oven has cooled down, you can try....1) Unplugging the range or shut off the circuit breaker for 5 minutes. Plug the range back in or turn on the circuit breaker. Set the clock and try moving the door lock lever or opening the door. 2) Set the self-clean cycle again and only allow it to work for 15 minutes. Cancel the self-clean cycle and allow the oven to cool. Gently try moving the door lock lever or opening the door.


Hope this may help;

DON'T FORGET TO HELP

It is possible that the magnatron is bad but hard to say on a no heat problem without checking all components. A lot of model give 5-7 yr warranty on that part.
