Default Microwave door latch question.

Hi. I have a Panasonic "Genius" 1300W microwave that has two door
levers that snap into the microwave. One of the two broke for some
reason when closing the door one day. I glued the piece exactly back
into place yet for some reason the safety mechanism of the microwave
still thinks the two latches aren't locked in (or one latch doesn't
exist, perhaps). The microwave lights up but doesn't go on and then
shuts off.

There really isn't anything else to do that I can tell and am
wondering if anyone has any suggestions on how to get my microwave
working again. I've tried unplugging the microwave under the
assumption that perhaps it was stuck on a safety mode but that didn't
seem to work. Unfortunately I no longer have the manual so not sure
what else to do..

Any ideas? I don't want to go in the direction of defeating the
mechanism, of course.

Thanks
