Interior lamp burned out
Unscrewed the vent at top of microwave exposing small access to bulb. The access to this was very limited so that was the major issue in changing the bulb. You needed small hands to do the job.

the glass circular tray inside had cracked in half.It was of no use. I reordered another
The tray came within 5 days and I simply took it out of its well-packaged box and slipped it into my microwave. It is working just like new. I can't thank you all for being so punctual and reliable. better than having to buy a brand new microwave.

Turn table did not rotate
Removed the original synchronous motor and replaced it with a new one. It turned on and rotated for about 1 day and stopped. I tested the motor for continuity and it was good. I need help in further trouble shooting.

Microwave was not heating and not turning.
I unplugged the appliance first. It was an over the range microwave so I only opened the front part where the buttons are, and behind it there’s a set of 3 door switches, carefully took out the burned down one and replaced it.

The fan cover in the top of the microwave had a melted spot.
I used a flat screwdriver blade to push out the rivet. Then used the screwdriver to loosen the fan cover and gave it a little twist. It came out with no problem. There was some grease build up on the aluminum fan, so I cleaned it. I placed the clean fan into the new fan cover and put it back in place in the microwave. There are several notches to match up, and then I gave it a slight twist to secure the notches. Then, the new rivet was put into the hole and pushed to make it secure. Finished!

Microwave quit working
Removed top bar and control panel. Checked fuse with multimeter-it was fine. Checked bottom two door latches with multimeter-fine. Went to check top latch and discovered that the spring loaded “button” which is depressed by the door extension had lost its springiness. Ordered new one. Replaced it. Works perfectly.

Glass tray somehow got a nick in the edge, a few days later it split while in use.
Another company said the new plate would arrive in mid-March, this company seemed to be faster so ordered the tray here, and it came in less than a week. I put the turn button back in the center hole, set the wheeled ring on the bottom of the oven, fitted the new glass tray onto the turn button.
