Kenmore microwave ovens are made and serviced by Sears. Microwave door handles are often damaged because when they are opened suddenly, they can hit cabinets or other appliances made of materials stronger than the plastic the handles are usually made of. While it seems like replacing a microwave door handle should be a simple matter of removing a couple of screws, it's a little more complicated. You need to take off and disassemble the microwave door to remove the old handle and install a new one.

Tip

If you do not want to attempt to replace the door yourself, call Sears Home Services at 1-800-424-2047, and schedule a repair appointment.
