Replace the complete microwave door with a new one.
The door ordered was exactly what I needed to replace the old one, however, removing the old door and installing the new one required breaking down the microwave oven. Without the knowledge and tools to accomplish this I had to call a kitchen aid repair service. The labor cost was $160 and considering the complexity of the work it was worth it.

Microwave was making a grinding sound
Problem was easily diagnosed using the internet as a resource, problem was a bad stirrer motor. Hardest part of the repair was the removal of the microwave. Once off the wall, you remove the outer cover and a molded plastic casing directly underneath the outer cover at the top of hte microwave to expose the stirrer motor. Removed two screws and two wires and the old motor is out. Did exactly the opposite to install the new motor. The kit I recvd included among other things the motor, a new inside cover, plastic rivets and even silicone to seal the inside cover. I am sure I saved a couple hundred dollars by doing myself.

Plastic Door handle broke off
Remove the 3 screws in the door. You will have to pry the door frame apart. use 1 or more flat screwdrivers to pry the inner liner from the medal door. There are plastic pieces that recess into the inner door from the medal frame. Once you get a few loose it is easy to remove the frame. Locate the 2 screws from the handle and attach the new handle. Then reverse the process to put the frame and inner door back together and put the 3 screws back in.

Replace door handle
Taking the door apart was easy once you figured out how it came apart. Youtube videos were not helpful as every brand of microwave is different; what works for one does not work for another. My Kitchenaide has little interior hooks on the inside of the door, 8 on top, 8 on bottom, 4 on the hinge side. You have to pry the door-skin up to get teh hook disengaged, then get a putty knife or similar to keep the hooks from re-engaging. Once you have about 6 or 7 undone, the door starts to come apart. Eventually the exterior of the door comes off; the interior of the door remains hinged. After that, you'll figure it out...
