Microwave missing a roller guide
When we bought our house, the microwave was missing a 'roller guide'. I didn't know that part even had a name, but your website made it easy for me to figure out. When it arrived, like the next day - I just unpacked it and placed it inside the microwave. Done! Thanks for the help!

Roller stems wore out; rollers fell off
Open door. Remove tray. Remove old roller assembly. Insert new roller assembly. Replace tray. Close door. It took more time and effort to unpack it than it did to replace it.

Bad thermostat
Removed outer case, checked fuse first, it was good so went to thermostat. No continuity reading. Unhooked thermostat, used jumper wires to by-pass break—briefly plugged the unit in. It came on so I knew the issue was definitely the thermostat.

time would count down but unit would not run & heat.
remove cover, unplug secondary door switch (top switch)
remove switch from holder, install new switch, plug in wires, replace cover, very easy. door switches are a common problem
with microwave ovens.

door hinge was loose, appeared to need something to stabilize
I could not do the repair. The clip that I ordered did not go in the bottom hinge, but rather in the top hinge, which was not broken. I could not figure out how to repair it. There was no other part in the diagram that looked as though it would solve the problem, so I needed to buy a new microwave. A more detailed drawing would have been helpful--one that showed how the hinges were attached and how they worked.

No display
I had a bad cut off sensor on oven cavity I ran the Microwave with nothing in it and it smoked I ran it for another 6 months then 1 day I was heating water and it stop- working. I put a new tube in might be Okay but I was not going to risk it taking another cut off sensor on overload. You have to change sensor and put on a new tube. Clearly it would be cheaper to buy a new unit but it was only 2 years old and I am an old tech and was curious. The sensor cost only 16 bucks new tube about 55 a replace brand new oven 81 bucks there you have it I was stubborn and going to get that sucker back into operation I had another oven go out the same way

Display dead. Microwave appears like it isn't plugged in.
Removed cover. Found oven flame thermal cutout and measured across the terminals with an ohmmeter. Found no continuity. Thermal cutout wasn't allowing a complete path for input line. Ordered the oven cutout and 2 days later I installed the new part, re-assembled the oven cover and Voila! Fixed. Simple repair saved my friend from having to purchase a new microwave.
