Would not start
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

The part as supplied is a generic for several models. The clip end is bigger than the slot and will not fit as shipped.
The clip end is @ 1"; the slot is @ 1/2". There are two raised pieces on the clip each @ 1/4" in. I used a metal snip to cut the oter 1/4" off each end-this allows the clip to be inserted into the slot and hold.

Microwave was sparking & fire going up the side
After reading on-line about other Amana microwaves, that said the arching was probablly due to dirt or grease & I knew it wasn't dirty, I decided to try the sandpaper recommended to clean the carbon from the wall where the shelf holder had burned several years ago. This caused the remainder of the clip to become loose. I then took a sharp knife & popped the clip out which left a neat square hole which your shelf holder popped right into. The filters were an afterthought because I didn't want to pay shipping for only a $2 item

Turn table stopped working.
The turn table motor stopped turning ,but we never turned the off button off on the microwave and kept using it ,so it shorted to the outlet neutral (white) wire at the circuit breaker fuse panel , the wire burnt off. I cut the wire re-installed it in a good buss connector.That restored power back to the outlet.** So now to replace bad Turn-Motor: Using phillip screw driver remove (bottom)filter/light panel- 10 screws, unplug lights and motor connectors, lower panel out of the way ,remove 2 screws from motor and replace motor. Install in reverse order. (Fast Fix)**Note:If you had other problems like I did consult with a professional electrician.

Bulb burned out
You had alerted that it was imperative to unplug unit before starting to remove defective bulb. As described, there was silicon on bulb and socket and bulb broke upon my attempt to remove. Had to use needle nose pliers to get metal base of old bulb from socket, then all went well.

Microwave would not cook
All the electrics worked on Amana microwave EXCEPT for the cooking function. Inspected the control board and found the upper switch on the door interlock was burnt. Installed new switch in minutes and everything now works fine. Unfortunately, had to purchase expensive two switch "kit" although only one switch was kaput. PartsSelect mailing was SUPER fast. Thanks for looking, Scott

Needed a new bulb under the microwave.
After unplugging the microwave and removing the screw, I removed the old bulb and put in the new one!! I made sure it was in securely and the difference in the light was awesome! I use this light when I bake bread and let it rise inside the microwave, but DO NOT turn it on. The heat from this light helps the bread to rise properly!!
