If the door on your microwave oven won t open you may have a problem with the door latch lever. The green button no longer clicked. It then contacts the door latch assembly and releases the door hooks to allow you to open the door. Since the door hook is made of plastic it can break due to regular wear.

The door latch assembly usually consists of two hooks that protrude from the door and fit into the door switch holder that is mounted onto the frame of the microwave. The door latch lever assembly usually consists of a paddle or button that either pivots downward or pushes into the control panel. The latch assembly is normally made of plastic. If the door hook is broken it won t release the door properly preventing the door from opening.
