RM280PXBQ2 Whirlpool Microwave Oven Combo - Instructions

Removed old element, replaced new element. Unfortunately, this didn't fix the problem. It was the temperature sensor. But now I have a new bake element, though!

Simply remove two screws on each side of the oven door. Remove what was left of the old handle and slide the new one in place. Replace the two screws on each side and it was done. Very impressed with the whole experience. I paid for standard 3 to 5 day shipping and received the parts I ordered less than 24 hours from the placing the order.

Removed the ice brucket,
Removed the light shield by releasing one screw using a nutdriver.
Replacing the bulb and reinstalled the light shield.

Your web site is one of the best and most helpfull service sites I ever used. Just wish that in the future you will ship parts overseas.

Simple. But beware changing just the bulb when the gasket is not secure.

was very easy to install I only needed a phillips screwdriver to remove old part and install new one.

As soon the Bake Element has arive, I install it no more than 5 min... All I nedd was a Screw driver. It was so easy, Thank You PartSelet!

Pro tip! Check how many bulbs you need before ordering. Mine only needed two. I got two. I suspect I’ll buy a new microwave before new bulb burns out again. Ordering/delivery was fast. No need to have spare on hand.

I had previously partially removed the element and tested with multi-meter to determine that it was not working (open circuit). Repair procedure follows:

Turned off Power
Removed 2 retaining screws
Pulled element out part way
Removed 2 spade connectors supplying power
Replaced element w/new element
Reversed procedure
Tested Oven; worked fine.

Did require removing almost every screw in the oven door. Labeled the screws as they were removed. Not difficult, just like solving a puzzle.

The button fell apart, then fell out of the microwave. I found the part on the internet and print the page. Went to my local Sears to see if they had part in stock. Sears uses something just above a DOS base computer system. If you do not have the exact part number they can not help you-mind you the part itself does not have a number on it. Anyhow, I order the part which arrived in three days. Simply, put the old spings in place and snaped the piece in place.

I had a son put in the new light bulbs. Rather simple

Unscrewed plate and replaced new handle. Very simple repair. Whirlpool was pricey on the handle but PartSelect had no determination in that. I researched the pricing and they were right on track with it. Delivered it in just a couple of days and I was back in business. Would definitely purchase again. Hassle free, great service! Great website and easy to purchase from. Very detailed prints, when trying to figure out what you need. Not sure if I needed just the brackets or the entire handle but the prints showed came in handy and showed me what I needed. Thanks~

Watched a you tube video prior to installing new switch. Followed the video which gave me confidence i was up to the task. After removing the touch pad I found my design was not exactly like the you tube model but I found the defective switch, replaced it and put the microwave back together. Works great. Again watch the videos

Just like you said,remove two screws,pull out element,disconnect wires,install new part. It was easier to pull out stove and hook up wires.

I removed two screws, pulled it out a few inched and unpluged two wires. I then plugged the two wires into the new element slowly slid the wires and element back into place and put the two screws back in... and it worked perfectly. I did it all in less than five mins. And I am a 53 year old woman.No man was required.
