the glass cooking tray would no longer move.
We removed the vents from under the bottom and then the 4 screws and pulled the motor out. It was a no brainer to fix and the part came in alot faster than expected.
Thank You

Microwave was making a koud grinding sound
First I unplugged the microwave from the wall receptacle. Next I removed eight screws that let the bottom plate of the microwave hood pivot down with its hinges. Next I removed two screws holding the turn motor in place. I then unplugged the motor and replaced it with the new motor and reversed the above procedures until everything was back in place. I then turned the microwave on and was thrilled to find it working properly again.

drive tray table failed to turn
unplugged the appliance, removed the glass tray from inside, turned the microwave on its side and removed the 3x3 panel, removed the drive motor by taking out two screws and disconnecting the two electrical wires, compared the new item with the old one, placed new in olds position and screwed in place. replaced the 3x3 cover, turned microwave upright, plugged in the power cord, placed a cup of water on the tray, turned the microwave on for 30 sec. and watched the table turn. Very simple and convenient application.

the tray started running slower to where it would not turn
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.

Plastic handle broke off
Used chisel to remove inside cover. Unscrewed broken handle. (Didn’t expect that there was a second set of screws That were covered by metal frame of microwave. Had to cut the screw to remove. Then screwed the new handle back in. This handle only had 2 screws. Hope it holds as well as the 4 original screws. Part was kind of expensive, was not informed that there was an error in processing my shipment until I called. Then part showed up 2 days later.

Timer, light and control pad worked. Turn table and heat did not work. Oven would not start up.
I first read where someone had the same problem. Their solution was a burned-out fuse. I ordered a new fuse...installed it and that did not solve my problem. I revisted PartSelect and read how Marla (from Arlington, TX)solved her problem. I purchased a secondary switch and when it arrived, I made a copy of Marla's instructions and followed them to the letter. I installed the new secondary switch into the secondary space, put everything back together and the oven STILL DID NOT WORK. I had to take the latching panel apart again and test each switch to see if there was another bad one. I found that the third switch was burned out. So I took the new switch out of the second slot and installed it into the third slot. I tested the switches before reinstalling the latching panel. This time everything worked. So I put everything back together, reinstalled the microwave on the wall, tested it again, and everything worked perfectly.

Broken door handle and front panel
Following the instructions from prior PartSelect folks for this part (thank you for great instructions), I removed the door from the microwave (first had to remove the fan vent grill above the door (2 Phillips screws), then I carefully removed the back plastic door frame using the thin puddy knife to carefully pop it off. Removed the first 2 screws on that are visible. Removed the inner door frame (was the most difficult part of the process to do without breaking the front panel frame) to expose the inner 2 screws. On our microwave, the front panel was also cracked, so I removed and replaced it (very simple), attached the new handle to the front panel with the inner screws (Phillips 2) and then popped the inner door back in, screwed in the last 2 screws and attached the back plastic door frame. Reattached the vent fan cover and the door. A bit more complicated than originally thought, but overall not bad. Charlie C
