Default Whirlpool Microwave does not work gives "door" error
Brand: Whirlpool   Age: 1 - 5 years   

Appliance Parts from AppliancePartPros.com
My Whirlpool Microwave (and oven combo) allows me to enter the time, etc but when I press start it doesn't work and "Door" comes up in the display. I have tried to reset the unit by turning off the electrical breaker. The door seems to be closing correctly and the rest of the display seems to be fully operational.

By reading the tech sheet i'm going to say either the door switch is out or the latch isn't actually latching all the way leaving the circuit open.
There isn't anything on the tech sheet about the display saying door.

It's either a failed door switch or the alignment of the door switch mount or hinge(s) is off.

You can usually find helpful exploded view diagrams and order parts by entering your full model number here.

More info on door switches uis here.
