I had a Panasonic Genius Prestige microwave (NN-SD997S) that wouldn't work anymore. It kept reading "close door" even when the door was closed. Don't throw it out! It's super easy to fix.
Here are some popsicle sticks: amzn.to/3DP0GQ1
Here's the plastic lubricant I used: amzn.to/3ATKNWC
Here's a security bit set: amzn.to/3DGB4oy
I get a small cut if you use the above links, hope they help!

It's been almost 5 years now (it's May 2020!) and I still use the microwave every day. This is a permanent fix! I'm stoked that this simple fix is keeping so many of these out of the landfills!

Excellent work Adam, I just fixed mine and it works stunningly...I was wondering, those encased sensors screw plate, the hole's are longer allowing slippage. If lock-washer's where used I think it might also be a permanent fix? Thanks to you I was able to fix my microwave, I am economically challenged at the moment and my grandchildren used the microwave consistently for hot pockets, and popcorn etc...if I would have had to purchase another microwave it would've put me in a worse position economically... Thank You

Was getting ready to chuck my 8yo Genius Prestige, but thanks to this video, I was able to fix it in less than 20 min. Two things that saved me a trip to the hardware store: 1) I used regular pliers to loosen the star screws (didn't have the special bit), and 2) instead of a popsicle stick, I cut a set of those disposable wooden chopsticks to wedge into the frame -- very stable, no need for hot glue. Thanks again for the vid!

Thank you! I thought the spring was wore out (connected to the double latch) since I broke the latch with my sleeve back in 2006. Problems started a week ago and got worse. Watched this and was ready to tear it apart but first took a flathead and bent to the left from the front thru both holes - top, bottom, then top, bottom again. 10 tries fine. Thanks again!

It got to the point I had to "slam" the door shut in order for it to work. I know that would eventually break it. I found your video and followed what you said. I'm happy to say my microwave works perfectly now with only the slightest push to close the door. I didn't use the popsicle stick this time. However, if I see the problem returning I'll know to add the popsicle stick to the repair. It's all put back together and working at the moment. I did use some WD-40 on the latch. That seemed to help. Hubby is out of town and I couldn't wait another week for him to come home, so I did it myself. TY Adam for your easy to follow instructions.

Adam: Thanks for the great video! Fixed my Panasonic in 10 minutes. I did a couple of different things that your viewers may try: (1) I used a vegetable oil spray instead of the WD-40 (bad smell) and it worked great, (2) I didn't have the star screw driver tip for the back 5 screws, so just undid the screws with a pair of pliers and then replaced them with regular 3/8" sheet metal screws of the same size (screws from a PC case or internals would work also); and (3) I didn't use the popsicle stick but took off the black "female" latch-catch piece (2 screws at top & bottom), bend the 2 white metal support tabs a little to straighten them out and then reinstalled the latch-catch back. Just like new now. Wife is very happy!

Interesting video! I appreciate watching do-it-yourselfers come up with solutions, even though I came here with a slightly less urgent issue. My Panasonic microwave is an even older model - a "just plain" Genius, before they even had the numeric keypad, that I got free from someone on Craigslist ages ago, and which worked great for many years until the door hinges developed a little too much play. As a result, the door became misaligned, listing slightly to the right in the closed position, and the oven wasn't operating unless I physically held the door straight on. I remedied that by inserting one end of - you guessed it, a popsicle stick (aren't they useful?) under the control panel where it protruded into the door frame at exactly the right height to align the door properly. Now it works - mostly, but sometimes I still have to reach out and press the top of the door firmly to the unit while in use, in order to keep a good seal, or it will stop working. I wonder if there's some way to tighten the hinges up so I don't have to do that? I'm at a loss on that so far.

Same oven here, same problem. Also found that it kept bending afterward, spite of removing the switch for a moment to increase the corrective bend-back. I am happy with my fix too.... Just a diagonal narrow zip tie between a spare hole in the top of the cavity box, and into the oval hole in the metal sheet for the top switch screw. And for good measure, a wire from the hole in the bottom half of the switch, diagonally to loop thru 2 vent holes under the door. Would have been so simple and cheap at the factory!

Thank you so much Adam!!! You're an angel for sharing this video. We have the Panasonic microwave NN-SD797S and have been slamming (and slamming harder) the door for the past six months, maybe even longer. We started searching for a new microwave about a month ago. But thankfully, our procrastination and dislike for shopping paid off, and instead we found your microwave saving, money saving, and sanity saving video! We just fixed it this morning and all is great. No popsicle sticks here, so we used a pair of disposable chopsticks (the ones you get with all Asian take out orders). Used the wider end where it's not split. I was hoping to add a photo here to show you but appears to be not possible. Luckily, we bought a set of tamper proof Torx bits about three months ago when we had to replace the light bulb. This microwave is high maintenance!

My microwave has 3 safety micro switches that are activated by the door. However, if one of them in particular is stuck in the electrically open condition, due to being defective, and you just plug the microwave into the AC outlet, off it goes full power. The inside lights are on, the table is spinning, and the microwaves are microwaving. So much for safety !!! But it was an easy fix. I noticed that the metal support in my oven was somewhat flimsy as well, but my microwave oven was built in June 2004, so I guess it has survived plenty of door slamming. Great video ! Wave to go Macgyver. Oops, I meant to say way to go.

@joefowble

A year ago I did a similar fix on my SD697S and used the video by kepkopke as the basis... no popsickle sticks. I think the plastic bracket being in place prevents you from bending the metal tabs appropriately. It's springy metal from the casing, so you have to over-bend so it comes to the right place after bending. I removed the screws that held the plastic latch mechanism to the metal tabs and pulled the plastic away before using pliers to bend the tabs "in". That has worked out for about a year now... but now I'm replacing the turntable motor TYJ50-8 with a TYJ50-8a19 (multimeter says 120 volts is being applied, but motor wasn't turning and coupling "D" hollow wasn't stripped out).

I had the same issue on a different model Panasonic. Even after the recommended fix, I had no luck, as one of the three switches (lower double switch, closer to the outside) was refusing to move into the right position. In the end, I had to loosen the screws holding the switch assembly to the flopping metal tabs, and slide it forward and up so the door hook pushed the plastic lever that triggered the switch correctly.

I have had (and fixed) the identical problem with my Panasonic Genius, and it is now doing it again. The REAL cause of the problem is the "too-strong" spring(s) in the door closure. I am going to take the door apart enough to see if I might be able to reduce the tension on the locking levers by clipping a few coils off of the spring(s). That will let the door close easier, without beating the hell out of the rest of the microwave, especially the micro switches.

@@adamdport I have had success fixing the door that you have to SLAM to get it to close. That part of the job was simple. I also had to replace one of the micro switches so the turntable would not turn when the door was open. The spring that holds the door closed was very easy to access. Just use a screwdriver to pry out the plastic molding that is snapped into place on the inside of the door. You do not have to remove the door... just the molding. You will then see the plastic latch body with a spring hooked to the bottom to create the tension. Unhook the spring and the plastic latch body with the two hooks that hold the door closed will come right out. You will see there are two pins that allow the latch body to slide up and down? My upper pin was cracked, but not quite broken in two. I ordered a new one for about $10. I went to Home Depot to get a slightly weaker spring, but had no luck. Before my new plastic latch body arrived, I decided to try and fix the old one. I drilled through the affected area and installed a steel pin (a mandrel from a blind rivet), coated with 2-part epoxy. Reinstalled it in the door and used the original spring without modification. Sprayed the parts with white lithium grease. I think the cracked pin on the latch body was most of the problem. The door now closes AND opens with no effort at all!! I keep forgetting, and find myself still slamming the door. I didn't even use the new latch.....I will save it in case my repair fails. This microwave has been very hard to close from day one, so maybe it was the lubricant, too?

Nice video Sir, but a certain amount of the blame for this problem happening is "Door Slammers" . Why do people find it necessary to slam doors? Anyway perhaps Manufacturers will take note and strengthen the mounting bracket.
@adamdport
@adamdport 6 лет назад
Anglo Saxon I don’t think a microwave door should require so much force to close. If I didn’t slam mine, I’d need to use my other hand to keep the microwave from sliding. Who DOESN’T slam a car door? I don’t know why a microwave door should be used differently than any other door. With my popsicle stick reinforcement, I’ve been happily slamming for years now with no issues.
@anglosaxon1622
@anglosaxon1622 6 лет назад
Adam Davenport BMW, Mercedes,Rolls Royce, Bentley owners to name just a few have no need to slam their doors. Over the range mw are fixed so can be carefully closed with one hand. Quality on counter top mw have rubber feet to stop sliding, so your "must slam" argument does not cut it for me.
@thekerb9545
@thekerb9545 6 лет назад
It’s a manufacturing flaw. When I took mine apart I could see the metal bracket bending out because the leaver hooks were not lubricated enough to pop up on their own. The front face of the hook hits the sensor mechanism and instead of sliding over and into place it pushes the whole inside part inwards bending the metal bracket out. I remember thinking it was tough to close the door when we brought it home. In my opinion it’s a slide lubrication issue not a mounting bracket issue. Perhaps they could have used a slightly lower gauge wire for the spring in the door?

Hi Adam, Thanks for your video. I also have the same Panasonic Genius Microwave, I have to use quite a strong force to be able to close the door with a loud “bang”. I found this problem pretty soon after I bought the microwave. It is annoying to use the microwave late at night as the “banging sound of the door often woke up others who were already asleep. Please advise whether lubricating the latch will likely help or need to reduce the spring tension of the latch or there may be other problems or fix. Thank you.
@adamdport
@adamdport 3 года назад
I'm sorry I'm not sure. Lubricating the latch is quick and easy and you should do it even if there wasn't a bang. Start there. If it doesn't go away you're just going to have to take it apart and figure out what's making the sound

Algun componente fundido en el inverter causa este codigo de error.

Did you discharge the cap?

Nope! Was I close to touching a charged lead at some point? If you leave a detailed comment here I'll add an annotation.

+Adam Davenport I was just curious. Others on youtube said it should be done but i see many videos of people not doing it. I will be replacing a door switch which is low voltage and wont be near high voltage circuits so it might be overkill to buy the extra parts and discharge

Problem....wood + electricity + heat =?????fire hazard.......So what I would do in this situation (and thats just me maybe someone else better idea) would be some hard plastic or soft...get the thickness and wrap the plastic with some electrical tape and then do what you are doing with the wedging in.

mdcorman 55 there’s no electricity or heat where I wedged it but I understand the concern. I don’t see why your way won’t work too!

what was the error number ??
@adamdport
@adamdport 8 лет назад
There was no error number. It just told me to close the door, even when the door was closed.

This microwave is horrible quality, we should file a class action lawsuit and get refunded. I "fixed" my door for a couple months. Now it won't start. Absolute shit.
