5304485407 Frigidaire Microwave Door Lever

Microwave Door Lever.
The product range from Frigidaire includes brands like Electrolux and they also manufacture components for Sears-Kenmore. This lever is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part designed specifically for Frigidaire microwaves. It plays a crucial role in the door's mechanism by managing how it opens and closes, which is vital for the appliance's safe usage.

The function of this lever is to engage with the door latch, facilitating the door’s secure opening and closing. A lever in good working condition is important to maintain the microwave's door seal and to ensure that there is no escape of microwave radiation.

The deterioration of a lever can result from regular use, accidental damage, or internal mechanical failures that affect its connection to the door latch.

Signs of a malfunctioning lever include:

- Challenges in opening or closing the microwave door
- The door failing to close or latch correctly
- Possible microwave radiation leakage due to a compromised door seal

Additionally, this OEM part from Frigidaire is compatible with appliances from Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and certain Kenmore models.

Common issues this part addresses include:
