“micro wave runs when bottom of door is touched . Our lg 2.0 cubic microwave was delivered by UPS yesterday. When any light upward pressure is put on the bottom of the door, the microwave starts operating. One time today, it started running when I just closed the door. Is there something we can do to fix this or do we just need to exchange the oven? It heats the food really well but the fact that it starts on its own is unsettling.”

We regret to read about your new LG - 2.0 Cu. Ft. Full-Size Microwave, Model # LCRT2010ST and what sounds like a malfunction. You definitely should have this exchanged because it should not be behaving in that manner...^IFV
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This same issue I was having with my older microwave. This is not normal and was an indication that something was wrong with my microwave. It was so bad I would have to unplug it when I wasn't using it. It eventually stopped working within days. I would return the microwave. There is something wrong with the microwave.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Exchange it!!! My old Sharp had similar symptoms. The "on" switch is triggered by the "hooks" on your microwave door. I nursed my beloved Sharp through several weeks if jiggling before it bit the dust. At one point it actually started running when I OPENED the door.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I would send it back and exchange it. The I have the same microwave and it does not to that. It sounds like a short or some other electrical problem that will probably get worse over time.
