Brand

KitchenAid

Age

6-10 years

When push Start button microwave it will not start!!.. It works when we hold the door tight..
For the microwave to work- Need to hold the door tight always!

I noticed that right side of the microwave door (bottom hinge) is lightly loose and saw one of the pin of the hood hinge is misaligned.
I was told the replacing the Door hinge may help..but the problem is that door hinge for this model is not available anywhere!!!..
