EMO3000CBB001 General Electric Microwave - Instructions

removed electrical wires, unscrewed holder, inserted holder, attached wires, added bulb, and put cover back on.

Removed screws and old parts. Fitted new part to door and put screws back in.

Unscrewed bottom panel, then unscrewed light socket, then replaced with new socket and bulb. Reattached socket and panel.

My microwave was squealing horribly and replacing the turntable motor (SUPER easy btw) didn't fix it. So I figured it was a spun bearing or bushing in the cooling fan (spoiler alert -- it was!). Installation was simple and did NOT require removing the cabinet-mounted microwave from its position above our stove: Unplug microwave, carefully unscrew the 2 screws holding the vent grate above the door, remove the grate, then unscrew the one screw holding the top of the control panel to the case. Carefully pivot top of control panel down and unhook it from the case (at the bottom of the control panel there are two little legs or extensions that insert into slots in the case). Then disconnect the 3 or 4 wires that attach the control panel to the wiring harness (I marked them each with tape so I would remember where they go, but you can just take a picture with your phone). Set the control panel aside. Where the control panel was, you will be looking at the fan, with a bunch of wires between you and it. Take another phone picture for reference, just in case. Disconnect the various wires, starting at the top right and working your way around clockwise. I marked each wire with a piece of tape and a number, starting from 1 and working my way around an imaginary clock face. I think I got to 12 and then the last two (sort of buried in the middle) I labeled as "0" and "-1" but you can use any numbering series you like. Once the wires are all disconnected you can gently push them aside and unscrew the two screws holding the fan assembly in place, and disconnect the fan wire. Then gently maneuver the fan assembly out the front of the case. Installation is simply the reverse of this simple disassembly process. Voila! Back to a nice quiet microwave.

1. Pried off the choke on rear of door to expose screws to door handle. 2. Using Phillips-head screw drive, removed the two scews to door handle. 3. Removed cracked frame from door - a bit difficult because frame is held in place by plastic tabs. 4. Removed door latch assembly from cracked frame and installed on new frame. 5. Refitted door handle to new frame. 6. Snapped new frame in place - again, somewhat difficult because of plastic tabs. 7. Replaced choke to rear of door - be careful because exact positioning of the choke is required and misalignment might crack the choke. 8. Enjoy saving over $100 in labor.

Removed control panel disconnected old capacitor installed new and returned the leads back on to the new. replaced control cover and tested

Had to take to a local glass shop for sizing and to remove sharp edges. Will never order again.

Replacement tray was installed. It was larger than the original tray, but it fits in.

New one arrived very quickly.

Right part. Right on time. Fit like it should.

Excellent service.

First I figured out how to take the door apart to remove two hidden screws, once that was done it was easy to install the new part. The part came extremely fast and worked well. The picture with each part labeled helped too!

Placed the screws in the proper areas, used the screw driver to tighten down and I was in business with light to spare. I am happy to have found the proper screws.
Thank you.

Very easy repair to replace filters. Step 1: Note position of filter and which end is towards you and position of latch handle. Slide old grease filter away from you and forward until it drops out, Set it aside. Step 2: Take new filter and put in slot away (as you noted) from you then slide towards you until seated properly underneath microwave. Repeat steps for the second filter. It takes about 2 minutes.

.Thank You Dan

I watched a d.i.y. repair video on how to remove the inner liner of the door. Then removed the 4 screws and placed the new handle. Very easy.

Wow! It really was as easy as everyone says. I ordered the part. It came overnight. I took out the 6 screws on the bottom of the microwave (AFTER unplugging the microwave of course), unscrewed the part and unplugged it, put in the new motor, plugged it in and screwed it in, and replaced the bottom screws. The only trouble I had, which really has nothing to do with this part or the repair, was that some of the screws on the bottom of the microwave were very difficult to replace as they didn't seem to line up with the holes beneath. I had a handyman coming to do some deck repairs and had him put those in. Ah well. I did MOST of it myself.
