Display screen was loose, plastic frame was broken
Open door and remove vent cover buy pulling gently. Next un plug the microwave. emove the screw at the top of the control panel. Slide the control panel straight up until the hooks on the sides slip out of the slots. Tip the panel toward you and unplug the three different plugs near the top of the panel. Now the panel will tip further out and it can be moved around to get the metal catch at the bottom to come out of the slot. This will let the panel tip down to a horizontal position making it easier to work on. Remove the one screw that holds the circuit board to the plastic rack. There are three tabs that hold it in place but all of mine were broken off. Next remove the three screws that hold the plastic rack and the screw that holds the grounding wire. Lift the circuit board up and slide the old plastic rask out. Don't forget to unplug the sensor light from the rack. Slide the new rack in place and snap the circuit board onto the new rack. Replace all screws, put the control panel back into the slot then put the hooks on the sides back into their slots, replace the screw at the top. Put the vent cover back on, plug it in and go have a beer.

Dirty charcoal filter
Simply remove two screws with a crosstip screwdriver securing the vent louvers from top of microwave, remove the old charcoal filter and replace new filter as describe in the owners manual. Very easy installation and partselect parts are very inexpensive and durable to other sites.

The close door warning kept coming on and the microwave would not run
Don't waste your time with other parts stores online. Partselect sells quality parts and they arrived 2 days early. I purchase a door switch from another online store and the switch was defective.

machine was dead.
After removing the over-the-range unit (no small feat!) I had to figure out how to open the case (good puzzle!). Capacitor had already discharged, so it was very easy to reach in, pop the old fuse and install the new one! As per your advice, I found out I was a "28%-er"! Upon re-installation, the microwave "sprang to life"!! Thanks, "Part Select"!! I was already shopping around for a new machine! (Now if you could only tell me an easier way to re-mount this heavy beast over the stove!!!)
