Ordered a new one, put it in place in less than one minute.

I removed the 2 screws holding the sensor in the back of the oven and pulled the wires out. The connector got hung up in the insulation. Rather than pulling too hard, I loosened up the heating element plate and screws and pulled the whole plate out an inch or so so I could work the connector through the insulation. I forgot to shut off the power. When I put the sensor on, I got the same error. I briefly shut off the power at the breaker and turned it back on. The clock on the oven did not reset. It still didn't work. So I took the whole thing out, shut off the power, reconnected it, turned the power back on, reset the clock, and it worked! Should have turned the power off first and I wouldn't have had to do it twice.

We bought a really nice microwave for about 1/3rd of the MSRP, but it was an open box item and when we got it home we found that it was missing a bracket on the inside of the microwave. We were able to replace the bracket easily thanks to partselect.com.

Set the new one inside the microwave

Part arrived in timely manner and placed it in microwave oven.

Didn't need sensor replaced. After turning the breaker switch back on oven appeared to be working fine.

Should be about 1 5/8 inch with 3/8 inch prongs. Sent bulb won’t fit.

I tryed to remove the sensor from the oven by removing the screws inside the oven. Unfortunatly, the plug for the sensor would not reach the inside of the oven. I had to remove the oven from the wall and remove the back cover to ac3ess the sensor wiring.
After that it was a snap.

Just put it in

Fool proof.

I spoke to Daily via the phone and I ordered a new steamer since my original steamer cracked over a period of time. No installation, no problems I just recently used it and works perfectly! Thank You!

We ordered element support 3 times and all three times it came broken. The part is made of porcelain and is fragile , representative asked warehouse to pack it in the box and part still came in envelope.
Requested refund and ordered directly from factory.

Could not complete the repair due to broken part when arrived. Reached out to service department but have not heard back. Maybe email did not go through due to pictures attached of part condition once arrived.
