Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Door sags or sits unevenly
• Door binds, sticks, or is difficult to open or close
• Door does not close fully
• Door alignment is uneven and the seal may not be consistent
• Hinge is visibly bent, loose, or damaged

Check Before Replacing

• With power disconnected, inspect the hinge and surrounding mounting area for visible bending, looseness, cracking, or displacement.
• Open and close the door slowly without forcing it; check for binding, sagging, unusual movement, or a door that does not sit evenly in the frame.
• Check whether the door closes fully and evenly around the perimeter; do not operate the microwave if the door, hinge, or shielding area is damaged.
• Before replacing the hinge, compare the suspected hinge position and orientation with the service information for the specific appliance model, since latch or interlock problems can produce similar door-related symptoms.
