57-2709-00-07 Tappan Microwave Oven Combo - Instructions

The job was very simple, remove the bottom plate of the microwave which is four screws and it exposes the motor. There are two screws which hold the motor in place that you access from inside the unit. Remove the two screws being carefull not to lose the gasket that is in between the motor and the bottom of the unit. Set the new motor in place being sure to add the gasket to the new part and run the two screws to the new motor and tighten! It don't get any easier than that! Also do not forget to plug the motor back into the female socket before attaching the bottom plate!

It took me a burnt bag of Orville's popcorn to notice that the turntable wasn't turning. After a tantrum and a bit of foul language, I Googled the brand & model. Up popped Parts Select of whom I'd never heard. THE PARTS LOCATOR IS FANTASTIC! I found exactly what I needed---checked a few other sources, but found nothing. I was a bit hesitant at ordering, but decided any site as well designed and intricate as this couldn't be a fake. Next pleasant surprise was that after ordering late Dec 26, the part was on my doorstep Dec 28! I ripped open that envelope, trotted into the kitchen, and stuck that bushing right onto the thing-a-ma-gig. That baby spun like a merry-go-round! Parts Select gets 6 out of a possible 5 stars in my book!

1. Switched the oven power off.
2. Tried unscrewing the two screws in the rear of the oven but they were
too tight. Used a power screw driver to unscrew the bottom element. 3. Pulled element out and disconnected the two wires.
4. Attached the two wires to the new bake element and fastened it
with the two screws.
5. Switched the oven power on.
6. Tested the oven with good results!

Take out 2 Phillips head screws.
Pull the element out, not disturbing the insulation any more than necessary.
Remove the 2 wires from the old element.
Discard old element.
Attach the 2 wires to the New element.
Feed the wires back through the insulation.
Replace the 2 Phillips head screws.
Turn on oven to test.
Done.

Removed oven racks removed 2 screws & pulled the element forward & disconnected the old element by wiggling the snap on connecters put in new element connected the snap on wires pushed it back in place & put both screws back in done in 10-15 minutes ??

My neighbor came over to replace the element. The procedure was simple. Following the instructions given online, he turned off power to the oven, removed the screws holding the element, replaced the element, turned power back on, and now my oven works perfectly.

my original part arrived and it did not fit. When I called to explain the problem I was told it was the wrong part. The big problem is... Frigidaire calls the receptacle a terminal block kit as well as a terminal block kit which is a totally different part. I tried to explain that to several different folks I spoke to at your company as well as Frigidaire but I'm not sure if I got that point across. Take a look at part # 530 393 5058 and part # 530 440 9888 and you will see that they both mention terminal block kit. Hopefully the part I am getting from Frigidaire is an OEM part and will fit.

Just slide the rack into the oven!

Watching the video showed an easy, unscrew and screw back on process while connecting the wires back. It was really that simple. Once it was complete (not even 10mins), plugged it back in, and its been working great since.

replaced it

Really a no brainer, but I do have to say that PartSelect customer service is excellent. My part was located and on it's way within a day and arrived a couple of days later.

Just had to remove the carousel tray and replace the drive bushing. And we were back in business.

Finally figured out after many months that all I needed to do was to get online and order the part. Part quickly arrived and within seconds I was back in business.

Took 3 panels off to get to the electric block. Replaced electrical block and put it back together. Still no change.

Easy as 1-2-3
