microwave itself never dies, the other stuff breaks,
I have a GE counter top and the door switch broke.
There were 3 door switches, of 2 different types.
2 off by default
1 off on by default
(or opposite)
anyway, as a safety feature when one of these dies, the microwave stops working.
I bought the part from online parts place for $2, shipping cost me more, so I bought 5 of them.
the problem is most of the switches are designed to last n # of cycles.
