Microwave Door Glass Is Foggy

The fogginess may come and go depending on weather conditions.

Microwave door glass is foggy.

Can the door be taken apart or is it necessary to purchase an entire new door. Therefore you will need to start out by drilling a hole in the gasket for the moisture to escape. It allows moisture into the area between the panes. This is the simplest fix to the problem but it will only be temporary.

Heat causes the panes to expand and contract and it softens and weakens the seals until they develop a crack in their armor and allow moist air in. I would not continue to operate this oven until i have it fixed. There is a great potential for leakage here. As a result moisture in the infiltrating air can condense when conditions are right colder outer glass against warm air inside the glass panel causing the glass to develop the hazy fogginess that most everyone has seen.

The condensation gets between the two layers of door glass and condenses inside this make viewing the cooking food almost impossible. Old age fig. Anybody know of any fixes. This is normal but it can pose a problem if the water gets in between the layers of glass on the microwave door.

Step 1 combine 2 cups water 2 cups white vinegar and 5 drops dish soap in a spray bottle. Use the vent fan to help prevent moisture from building up. The seal on the microwave door glass is compromised and allowing moisture and perhaps the microwaves to enter between the windows inner and outer. Remedy this issue by leaving the microwave door open for several minutes until the water evaporates completely.

Eventually a seal will allow moisture to enter the window. Microwaves are dangerous appliance to work on. This microwave has a major flaw in that it fogs up very quickly across the door viewing window. I just installed a new kenmore elite advantium 120 microwave in oct of 2007.

This occurred if using just the microwave or just the convection or both together. If moisture is noticed between the glass allow the microwave door to stand open for approximately 15 minutes to accelerate the dissipation of the moisture. The main problem with a foggy sliding glass door is that the gasket is no longer sealed. The window in the door has become cloudy to the point of my having difficulty seeing inside the over when it is on.

Wipe the moisture off with a paper towel or soft cloth.
