Thanks,

about 6 philips head screws along the bottom drops that cover off. 2 more hold the motor in place.

carefully remove the 2 wire plug onto the motor . do not touch or get near the black wire.unless you want to get shocked.like i did.

remove the 2 motor screws.put the new one up and turn untill the screw holes are the holes in the
lower inner cover. reinstall the screws .reinstall the plug and lower plate.

having been a auto mechanic till i retired, helped me a lot.total time to make the repair was about 15 min.

this is not my first order from parts select and all i can say is they rock with the best of service i have ever gotten for appliance parts. and prices one can not found to beat for factory parts.

removed the srews under the unit unplugged the rotor motor and unscrewed 2 screws holding in the motor. When new motor arrived I plugged it up and put it on with the 2 screws and then put the bottom filter screen piece back on with the 6 little screws. REal, real easy.

easy repair. removed seven screws on the underside of the microwave and lowered the bottom cover. removed two screws from the old motor, unpluged the wires. reversed this sequence to install. took less than 5 minutes.
I had previously read these steps others had posted on partselect so the job was a breeze!

Let me keep this short and simple.

Disconnect the power to the microwave
Remove the (7) screws from the bottom panel
Disconnect the wires from the old Drive Motor
Remove the retaining screws of the drive motor
Then install the new drive motor in the reverse order

took screws out of bottom of microwave.dropped down bottom cover to get at drive motor I took out one screw droped down cooking tray motor disconnnected 2 wires reconnected put back up and put 1 screw in ,fastened bottom and was fixed very easy ,and parts select is the best place to find what you are looking for if I ever need parts this is where I will order from service is great and only took about 2 days to receive my part .I went to store where I bought my microwave and they wanted to sell me a new one.saved over $200

removed the screws holding the bottom panel, unscrewed the motor. Disconnected the motor. Connected new motor. Screwed in new motor. Replace panel

Unplugged microwave from the wall. Removed the screws on the bottom of the oven. Detached the light, removed the bottom panel. Unscrewed one more screw on the turn table motor and twisted to remove. Plugged in the new one and reattached the Electrical wires and bottom panel. Piece of cake. Just don't forget to reconnect the lights!

Using a phillips screwdriver, remove 7 screws from the unerpanel of the Spacesaver Microwave. The panel will swing down from the rear edge hinge, exposing the lights and the stirrer motor. Remove the electrical connector and two screws holding the motor in place and remove the motor. The stirrer inside the oven can then be removed if desired. Install the new motor in reverse order. Note rotate the stirrer inside the oven to align the motor shaft to facilitate assembly.

Kept the microwave in place( it is above the stove) 1 unplug the microwave 2unscrew the cover plate on the bottom3unplug connections,light and drive motor.4 unscrew drive motor replace with new drive motor,reverse the remaining process. Part took about 3-4 days to deliver,plan accordingly.

Disconnect power to microwave. Remove plastic rotor attached to motor shaft. I had to pry up from underneath it with a screwdriver to break it loose. Cover surface below microwave as bottom cover screws are small and easily lost. Remove three front and two rear screws from bottom cover and it will swing down. Locate the drive motor on the cover, disconnect the power leads, remove one set screw and rotate the old motor off the cover. Reverse instructions to re-install new motor. Swing bottom cover back up and re-install the five small screws. I had a little trouble lining up the screw holes and it helped to use a finishing nail to align the holes in the cover with those in the microwave frame. Reinstall plastic rotor on motor shaft, reconnect power to microwave and test the turntable.

The Glass cooking tray was very noisy. This was verified by turning off the tray rotation.

1. Removed the two metal filters.
2. Removed the screws holding the bottom cover of the microwave. 6 or 7 I believe.
3. Removed the two screws holding the drive motor in place.
4. Started the microwave with the motor hanging down to to verify it was defective. I could hear the motor rotating and making noise.
5. Replaced the motor, bottom cover, & filters in reverse order.
6. Tested, Works fine!

I removed the screws (7) around perimeter of bottom. Don't remove the middle screw as it holds some gizmo in place. Dropped down hinged bottom. Removed motor (2 screws and a plug) matched to picture on website and ordered.

2 days later, part arrived, installed, good to go.

P.S. cleaned everything while I had it apart, toke longer than chancing the part.
