It’s not the door latch that is broken. The spring connects one side to the door latch and the other side to a plastic piece attached to door frame

Is there a way to replace the light on a fgmv174kfa microwave?
For model number FGMV174KFA
Hello Chris, Thank you for your inquiry. We have researched the model number you have provided and show the light bulbs as part# FIX979525. Two bulbs are on the bottom and can be accessed by taking the lens cover off, the other is located in the top and you would need to remove the cover of the microwave. For safety reasons, since the microwave capacitor can still store electricity even when the microwave is unplugged, it is usually advised that you discharge the capacitor before any attempt at repair. Good luck with your repair.
I think the plastic piece that connects the door spring to the door broke. I know the spring is connected to the latch and door

I first removed the top plate above the microwave door (3 screws), then I removed the plate containing the buttons and clock. The microwave has 3 relay switches and they are in a little holder. The holder was too difficult to remove so I just removed the bottom switch and replaced. The microwave started right up.
Removed the 3 screws to drop the lower panel and, removeed the turn table plate and ring. Then removed the 2 screws holding the motor, the 2 wires attached to the motor and removed the old motor.Replaced the new motor in the reverse order. DO NOT FORGET TO UNPLUG THE MICROWAVE FIRST.
was told buy a repair person to check the door micro switches as it was a common problem. removed the top plastic air grill to get access to the screw that holds in place the control cover. After unplugging the unit, i took out the (2) screws that held in the switches and removed them (3). One switch was a bit melted so i tested it with a 12 volt battery and it was bad. Ordered a new one from Part select and got it fast . Works great .
