# How to Repair the Door Closed Sensor on a Frigidaire Electrolux Microwave
Modern microwave ovens, such as a Frigidaire Electrolux, come equipped with sensors on the inside of the door that are activated when the door is closed. Once the door is closed the microwave can begin a cooking cycle. A faulty door sensor can prevent you from using the microwave. You can access the sensor and fix any loose wiring.
