Thanks. Microwave heat turns on by moving door up or down in closed position (comes in contact with door switch). How do I create more conact with door latch and the switch?

Thanks for the comment... I adjusted the switch... but I still have to move door (very slightly) up or down or little pull back in order for heat to turn on. Need your help. thanks

This is usually caused by either a bad door switch, a loose door switch mount, or a problem on the control panel.

Even though a door switch clicks, it may still be bad inside. Its continuity must be checked.

Door switch or mount trouble can be caused by slamming the door or by opening the door while it's cooking without hitting the Stop pad first.

Did you test the switch?

Did the mini-manual show anything about the adjustment?

Also be sure there's not a broken tab on the switch mount.
