Many of these washers have had the door switch go bad. I would replace the door switch. Can find on Amazon for fair price.

Why compact disc player model#cafsm3 will not read and play cd/door error

The door close mechanism is linked mechanically to the CD read mechanism .unless the door close signal is relayed satisfactorily ,the CD will not play .get it checked by an authorised person and don't do it yourself since the laser from the lens is harmful .

We have a new Frigidaire FASG7074NR2. It stopped at the beginning of the cycle and read door open. The door was not open. We tried opening and firmly closing the door and unplugging but it still reads door...

Good Morning Frances,

I understand that your new Frigidaire dryer, model# FASG7074NR2, stops at the beginning of the cycle and states that the door is open. I also see that opening the door firmly, closing the door firmly, and unplugging your appliance, the display still reads "Door Open", and will not run. I suggest contacting your local authorized technician for further assistance. They will be able to diagnose your dryer and determine why it is stating "Door Open". I hope this is helpful.

-Best Regards-

Oven light on display says door and now wont heat

The oven will not turn on the heat because it thinks the door is still open. It thinks the door is open because it has a sensor that gets pressed by the door when it closes (look around edges of oven that get covered when door closes) this sensor is wet, dirty or broken so when you close the door the sensor still says its open. Did you clean around the door with a wet cleaning fluid?

Thermador 01

make this test and fix it. God bless you


  1. Inspect the power cordUnplug the power cord and check for voltage at the outlet. Also inspect for damage, shorts, or burn marks that can be a possible safety hazard.
  2. Bad door switchIf your microwave does not work at all and you know everything is plugged in properly and the outlet is functioning, then also check the door hooks and the door release button. Using a volt-ohm meter on RX1, check your terminals. When your microwave door is closed you should have a reading of zero. Once the door is open the reading should change to infinity. If these readings do not match up, replacement of the door switch is necessary.
  3. Blown fusesTo determine if your fuse has blown out, which may attribute to your microwave not running, you need to pull the fuse out using a pair of fuse pullers. Lay it down and using a volt-ohm meter on RX1, check both ends of the fuse in question. If you do not get a reading of zero, then you will need to replace the fuse.
  4. Bad fan motorLocate the fan and remove the leads. Again using the volt-ohm meter on RX1, check the terminals. If an infinity reading is displayed, it means that the fan has gone bad and requires replacement.

I have a Whirlpool Microwave that runs when I open the door Model# GT4175SP. Any ideas?

Remove the case and confirm that the door latch switch is mechanically intact. Next, disconnect the switch and test it with an ohm meter to see that it is actually working. It should show a short (0.0 ohms) when the door is closed and no reading when the door is open. Those readings could be reversed but there should be two distinctly different readings when testing the switch. If you don't see any differnce between readings when the door is open or closed then replace the switch. This should solve your problem.

Tappan microwave turns on but will not heat at all....still cold after heading for several minutes.

Test your door safety interlock switches. If you are like me, you 'turn it off' by opening the door. This causes arcing at the little contact in these micro switches. Eventually, the contacts inside burn up and cannot make contact. If they cannot make contact, the machine doesn't know if the door is open or closed.

Unplug the machine - do not touch the silver thing inside - potentially lethal! - check with a volt-ohm meter. The switch should read "open" when the door is open and "closed" when the door is closed. If it reads open when the door is closed, the microwave doesn't know the door is closed so it will not turn on the magnatron.

Yes, everything else will work except the magnatron if this $10.00 switch is broken. Buy a replacement at a electronic parts or appliance place. Be ready to give make and model of your machine.

Let me know how this works for you.

Close door read out appears

You have a problem with the door alignment and the door switch.. The slightest movement triggers the door switch. You should have someone look at what is causing this issue.
