KW3A Microwave Oven Door Switch 16A 125/250V Door Interloc (2 Normally Open and 1 Normally Closes)

Bought this because my GE over the range microwave completely stopped when it comes to cooking the food. All the lights and alarms and fans worked on it, but it was actually the door switches that were faulty. In my GE, it took three switches and these worked brilliantly. Actually very easy to change out. Took me probably 20 minutes to take apart the microwave front and side panel and plug in the three new switches. Put it back together plugged it in and it worked perfectly. Highly recommend this product! It's compatible with most GE over the range microwaves.

I replaced the three door switches in a Kenmore Microwave oven (Model NO. 721.69122010). It was the normally open bottom switch that went bad. It operates off the door latch and takes a beating when the door closes. Make sure you unplug the microwave first and then after removing the case cover discharge the big capacitor for the magnetron. Use a long screwdriver with an insulated handle. Short across the capacitor leads and to the case to make sure the capacitor has no charge before sticking your hands in the area of the door switches. The capacitor is in the same area and if its bleeder resistor is burned out or broken the capacitor won't bleed down. It will bite badly if you touch it and it still has a charge. Take a picture of each of the three door switches before removing so you can put the wires back on the terminals correctly. Replace one switch at a time. Be careful with the plastic retaining clips. They won't flex much and will break easily. There is a trick to removing and reinstalling each switch. There is a little plastic post that extends in the hole in one corner of each switch. Carefully lift the front retaining clip on the switch just enough to slide it out slightly swing it down and out and pull it off the post. It's important to not break the post. The removing and installation of each of the three switches is not identical but similar. It's tricky and delicate but can be done without breaking any clips or posts. Install them in reverse order. Do the switches one at a time. It took me about 45 minutes.

These worked perfect for our microwave. Replaces all 3 since it was apart already and it works like new. Good product so far. Build quality mirrors the OEM parts and feels like they will stand the trat of time. Price was right and they arrived quickly.

I bought this set for a Samsung SMH1816S microwave oven. It has the exact set of 3 switches I needed - 2 normally open and 1 normally closed. I've previously replaced similar switches on the same oven with a different seller/brand and it was fine. This time, I came across a problem I had not seen before; nor have I seen this problem on other similar switches used in other situations. The problem is that the male contact lugs for these switches are thicker than the corresponding female lugs in the Samsung wire harness. For one switch, it took a little extra force to push the wire harness onto the lug. But for the others, it didn't work and I wasn't willing to force the harness any harder for fear of damaging/breaking the plastic parts holding the switch in place. Comparing the new and old switches, the difference in thickness is visible to the naked eye. Judging by other reviews, this problem isn't universal but it sure is a problem on my Samsung unit. Since only 1 of the 2 N.O. switches was broken, I was able to move a good one switch to replace the bad one and install a new one in the spot that took a little more persuasion. So overall, good value and well made, but not good on the installation. Buyer beware.

Had the issue with microwave turning on while door is open due to one of these switch was not working due to fatigue over 11 years of use. Goole seaech recommended to check and change. Changed all three switches and now it is back to normal. It worked as expected, recommended.

I have no idea why I am rating the sheerness and warmth of these electronic microwave switches, but since everything else was 5 stars, here's these too. The microwave threw the breaker and refused to cook my Ramen. Utilizing the my enhanced investigative skills, I located and viewed several YouTube videos related to this issue. Long and short of it, I have learned that there are three (3!) switches in the door latch area of my (mass produced under many different brands) built-in microwave/stove fan. I was further able to determine that I only needed to replace the middle switch (the one that is wired opposite of the other two) in order to resume my "Ramenicity." When I went searching for said switch, I found that this one little switch retails for $23+. I was shocked. Then I turned to Amazon, the purveyor of all that is available, occasionally within two days. Lo and behold, I found this package with all three switches (the bad one that had to be replaced, plus the two that were in great working order) and all three of them are available for less than half of the price of the one switch! There was a moment of great angst as I pondered whether to buy three switches from a lesser known supplier instead of one switch from a parts house. Knowing from my prior work in the auto parts industry that almost all wiring and switches for your cars and trucks come from the same place and have the (brand)names applied after manufacture, I decided to gamble on it. Receiving the three switches, I returned to the YouTube and looked for videos on the actual procedure. Lo and behold, I found one! Suffice it to say the operation went off without a hitch, and the microwave works again. I did replace all three switches since I had all three replacements, on the off chance that one of the others might be close to going out. (And honestly, what was I going to do with those switches anyway?) Gentlemen, and ladies, this is a simple procedure that anyone can do. The videos are explicit, and the instructions simple. These switches so far have been outstanding! I cannot recommend them enough in order for you to get your Ramenicity back like I did.

I supplied the part number and a model number for my microwave. Two of the switches were a perfect match, the third one was not a match. Luckily replacing two did the trick for me.

For the Frigidaire lfmv1645tf mircowave, my machine had three different switches. (2) KW3A Microwave Oven Door Switches 16A 125/250V Door Interloc (1 Normally Open and 1 Normally Closed). Both are gray and are both installed on the bottom of the door switch assembly. The middle switch is the normally closed and the bottom is the normally open. Just match them to what it currently in the machine. (1) KW3AT-16 Microwave Oven Door Switch 16A 125/250V Door Interloc (1 Normally Open). This switch was black and installed at the top door latch. I believe this is a high temperature switch, maybe the T is for high temperature. Luckily replacing the solely the two bottom switches and leaving the top one as originally installed solved my problem. The issue I had was the microwave was kicking my breaking every time I started the microwave due to these bad door switches. A quick video search on the you tubes will help you fix. Took me about 1 hour total. Hope this review helps someone else.

These door switches worked perfectly for a Panasonic microwave that I have. The specific model is NN-SG626S. The 2 black tab switches show in this Amazon product can be either the primary or secondary interlock switches. While the red tab switch is the monitor switch. In my case, my microwave goes primary interlock switch, monitor switch, and than secondary interlock switch. So it's, black, red, black. When the microwave door is closed. All the switch tabs close at once. That's how it functions. My microwave without its outer casing even shows how the switches should be aligned in a diagram sticker some where along the top of its internal parts. I believe the Panasonic 626 series of microwaves use many similar parts such as these switches. Accessing, the primary interlock switch and the monitor switch was easy. However, to access the secondary interlock switch. I had to open the microwave door and remove the electronic display panel. Than carefully remove the secondary interlock switch. Make sure you take a picture of which wires go into the according switches for reassembly reference before you even start the disassembly. Upon opening, I discovered that the primary interlock was indeed burnt out. So even if I replaced a fuse. As soon as the door was shut. It'd blow the fuse. Since I replaced the switches and the fuse everything works flawlessly now! Thank you again!

Quedo muy bien en mi horno, piezas universales con las que no tienes problema para reemplazar las dañadas

This deals with Panasonic NN-SG656W microwave (6 yrs old). I think one of the 3 switches was sticky and blew the fuse within. After cover removal, there's printed recommendation that if the fuse blows, to replace all 3 switches. Also prior, we notice the door not easily releasing, indicating the cams & levers for the switches may not be syncronized. Used an auto 20 Amp fuse until the ceramic shielded fuse and the 3 switches arrive. Meanwhile the microwave worked fine. The new switches arrived in half of the estimated 12 days. They are duplicates to the original. They were easy to install. It's been 9 days since replacement and the microwave is working well and the door opens smoothly.

Cheaper than manufactures part and works well.

good way to fix a common fault on Microwave door problems, make sure power is disconnected take pictures, do one switch at a time, do all 3 if that's what is on your unit
