Haier Microwave door not opening/closing properly
When your Haier microwave door won't open or close properly, inspect the door opening mechanism in this order. The open lever is the most likely cause when the door will not release. If it is broken or damaged, replace it. Next, check the door spring, which can break and prevent the release mechanism from working. A damaged door latch can also keep the door from closing securely or opening normally. Inspect the plastic door hook as well. This hook engages the latch during operation and may crack or break from regular wear, preventing the door from releasing. If these parts look intact, check the button spring inside the door open button, followed by the button itself, which may have a broken internal component. These repairs may require opening the microwave cabinet. Unplug the appliance first, and remember that the high-voltage capacitor can store a lethal charge even after unplugging. It must be properly discharged before any interior work, so use a qualified technician if you are not familiar with capacitor discharge procedures. Enter your Haier microwave model number to find the exact replacement open lever, door spring, latch, hook, button spring, or button for your specific appliance.

The door hook engages with the door latch to keep the door closed during operation. Since the door hook is made of plastic, it can break due to regular wear. If the door hook is broken, it won’t release the door properly, preventing the door from opening. If the door hook is broken, replace it.
