Microwave light, turntable, and heat were not working
Remove from cabinetry, take cover off and had a very difficult time removing the plastic form that has the switched in. Replace the lowest of all the switches, and then again very difficult time getting the plastic form back in. Some of the plastic even broke during the process but not any that could prevent it from working as it did before. I had ordered a fuse, 2 packs of 2 switches as there are 3 switches but only had to use 1 to get it working again. Tested after switch install, put the cover back on and reinstalled in the cabinet.

The 20 year old original vent grille brittled and snapped at the clip lip.
The replacement took about five minutes and the only tool require was a Philips screwdriver. I just removed the old one and slipped in the new part. The replacement vent grille sent by PartSelect was a perfect fit.

The old grille had cracked in several places
You need a philips head screwdriver to remove the two screws at the top of the microwave, freeing the old snapped off clips. The new grille does come with the clips already installed, which I hadn't been sure of, since you can't buy the clips by themselves. Let me reassure you if you're wondering too. Snap the new grille in, tighten down with the screws from the top, and I was done. Took me seven minutes.

Face of door was cracked
First I removed the panel covering the fan exhaust area by removing the 4 screws on top of unit. Lifted off the old door and set new door in place. Replaced the panel by using the aforementioned 4 screws.
Definitely easy to do.

Outside of cabinet got hot & food inside of microwave did not get cooked
Replaced the diode (aka wire-vltge) in the HV circuit after removing cabinet cover using both the secure torx screw drvr & phillips head screw drvr. The hardest part of the job was finding the secure torx nut drvr tool on the internet & purchasing same.

Microwave would not cook
All the electrics worked on Amana microwave EXCEPT for the cooking function. Inspected the control board and found the upper switch on the door interlock was burnt. Installed new switch in minutes and everything now works fine. Unfortunately, had to purchase expensive two switch "kit" although only one switch was kaput. PartsSelect mailing was SUPER fast. Thanks for looking, Scott

burnt out light bulb
The problem I have with changing the bulb is my microwave is an overhead one and therefore I cannot tip it on its side to easily replace the bulb. I have to drop the lid down and carefully install the new bulb from underneath.

Old filters were beyond cleaning
Simply removed front of Microwave, removed the old charcoal filer and inserted the new one. On the grease filters, removed both of them from bottom of microwave and slid the new ones in place. That's all there was to it. No tools required.
