When I push the button, the light comes on but the door does not pop open. I don't know which model of the Dacor Microwave built in that we have. It's about 7 years old.
What usually breaks is
the door open lever, but it may also be that the rear side of the door
open button has worn down too far to work.
On
a counter top model, the outer cover will need to be removed to
diagnose and repair this. On an over-the-range model, only the control
panel needs to be
removed.
If yours is a DMT2420 or other counter top model that is built into a cubbly hole and surrounded by a metal grille (built-in kit), the kit will have to be removed, then the oven will slide out of the opening.
Once it's out, you can remove the outer cover and you'll be able to see how the door open button would press
against the door open lever, which would then lift up against the door
latch heads (hook-like projections on the door) and the door should
open.
The model tag will either be on the back or around the door frame or control panel frame, or maybe inside the cooking cavity.
We have several Dacor microwave service manuals at our site:
It's a pain, but for Dacor the parts list are separate:
Once you have the part number of the part you need, you can order by part number here.
(This site does not list Dacor by model number, only by part number)
