Ikea Microwave door not opening/closing properly
If your IKEA microwave door won't open or close properly, start with the open lever, which is the most likely cause when the release mechanism is damaged or not moving correctly. Next, inspect the door spring for breaks or loss of tension, then check the door latch for damage that could prevent the door from securing or releasing. A broken plastic door hook can also keep the latch engaged, causing a microwave door stuck condition or making the door latch not work. If the open button feels loose or does not return, inspect the button spring and then the button itself for a broken internal component. These repairs typically involve the door assembly and do not require testing the microwave's heating circuit. Replace damaged parts rather than forcing the door, which can damage the latch or hinge. Enter your IKEA microwave model number to find the exact open lever, door spring, door latch, door hook, button spring, or button for your specific model. If any repair requires opening the outer cabinet, unplug the microwave first and remember that the high-voltage capacitor can store a lethal charge even after unplugging. It must be properly discharged before interior work, so use a qualified technician if you are not familiar with capacitor discharge procedures.

04 - Ikea Microwave Door Hook
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.
