Broken handle
Remove the door by lifting up the hinge side so that the two hinge pins disengage from the steel hinge brackets.This can be a bit fiddly so just keep wiggling the door until one of them pops off.
Remove the plastic cover trim piece that surrrounds the window, exposing the phillips head screws that secure the door to the handle.
Remove the screws to un-install the old handle, they are deep set so if they fall out of the door you will need needle nose pliers to pout them back into the door.
Set teh new handle in place and tighten the screws down snuggly.
Retrace your steps... snap the plastic trim back in place and reset teh door on it's hinges (once again this can be a bit fiddly so take your time.

Grease filters were missing from the over-the-stove microwave
Why a tenant would remove and discard the grease filters without replacing them is beyond me! But, I removed the filters from the package and slid them into place. Two minutes tops. I would like to add that I ordered these on Thursday afternoon, and I had them on Saturday; awesome customer service!

Not the original type bulb
The repair was very easy, however the bulb was not the same as the original one. The original bulb had a bright setting and a low setting, but the replacement bulb was only the low setting bulb. There was no bright and dim operation. The switch on the microwave had the duel settings.

The handle broke .. bad design at the ends
First, I had to find the part. Maytag wanted to sell me a door at the price of a new microwave. Parts select was expensive, but bargain compared to that. Prying with plastic tools separated the plastic interior trim around the door from the rest of the door exposing the phillips head screws that held the old handle. I actually pre-ran this before ordering the part. Then it was a simple job to screw on the new handle and then snap the plastic cover (interior trim) in place.

glass cooking tray missing
I bought the microwave on sale at Sears. the glass cooking tray was missing. It was to be ordered but after 2.5 months I had not received it so called Part Select and received the tray within 5 days! Ironically, the original one arrived the same day. I would recommend PartSelect for their prompt and very courteous service.

Buzzing noise, no heating of food
Removed control panel, discharged HV capacitor. Removed old diode, tested to confirm failure. Replaced part. Other than the removal of the panel swapping the part was almost as easy as replacing a light bulb.

Appears to work, but food not heated
The high voltage tired was shorted. I replaced it with a new one, but that did not solve the problem.
You can test the high voltage tired with a voltmeter and a 9 V battery. Search Search for it on YouTube.
You can also test the high voltage capacitor, the high-voltage transformer, and the magnetron with a multi meter. Search for the procedures on YouTube.
I tested all these high-voltage components with a low-voltage multi meter, and they all checked out OK (after replacing the diode). However the microwave still did not heat food.
When working on a microwave it is important to unplug it and also discharge the high voltage capacitor. The capacitor has a 10 megaohm resister to automatically discharge itself, but it may have failed – – so discharge it manually.
In the end I ordered a new microwave.

Microwave would continue to run even when door was open. (even if no time was left on timer)
Unplugged Microwave, Removed vent cover (2 screws on top of microwave, then slide cover to the left, then forward) Removed control panel (1 screw at top of panel) then removed the two screws that hold in the door switch assembly. (these you will only see by opening the microwave). Located lower door switch, removed connecting wires, and pulled switch by releasing small plastic tab which held it in. Put new switch in place, reconnected wires, then reconnected door switch assembly. Reconnected control panel, and then put the vent cover back on. Tested microwave and it no longer runs when the door is open. Super easy fix, and was done in under 5 minutes.

Microwave lamp burnt out
With microwave still attached under the cabinets, I removed 2 screws for the top grill and then one screw for the bulb cover plate. This provided access to the bulb. The replacement bulb was a simple plug-in.
The best part of this experience was the exploded parts diagram on the PartsSelect web site which allowed me to easily locate and order the correct part.

Burned out lamp on microwave
Opened light panel and replaced bulb. Very, very easy.
I am concerned, however, that this bulb does not emit the same amount of light as the one i replaced. The item number is the same, however, so I am perplexed at this bulb efficiency.

Burned out light bulb
I followed the instructions in the owners' manual on how to access the bulb. Installation was a breeze. I couldn't believe how fast I received the replacement bulb from PartSelect. I ordered it on line one afternoon and Fedex delivered it to my front door before 9:00 A.M. the next day. Awesome service.

Microwave stopped working - would not heat up
I removed the outer cover and exposed the inner workings. I watched a video on partselect.com to show how to remove and replace the Diode. I followed the instructions and it was very easy to replace.
Unfortunately, the diode was only part of the issue. I ended up replacing the High Voltage capacitor and Magnetron also. Those were a little more complicated but still easy to do.
Now the Microwave works just like new! Cost me less than $100 for all parts.

Broken door handle
after searching the internet for a replacement handle,all I could find was,I found I had to order a door for the price of $250. I decided to search some more. I was totally surprised when I discovered that not only did Parts Select have a handle only but it was in stock too for the price of @40.00. The handle was the exact replacement. It was a pleasure doing business with a company that did not try to rip you off. you have a customer for life. Tony Chernauskas
