MH1150XMS2 Whirlpool Microwave - Instructions

Unscrewed 4 different screws, replaced the vent & returned screws. Ack to original positions

It's a simple repair but costly. Just open the door remove the three screws on the side of door. Now use a small screw driver or metal putty knife to remove the chooker collar around the door " be careful this can easly be broken". Okay now the metal inner door is easier to remove if you slightly bend the tabs up around the door. Look carefully you should be able to see where they catch. Once you do that carefully seperate the outter door cover. Careful sometimes it will pop right out and fall. Please no more further repairs needed. Just screw in the new handle push tabs back out on the metal inner door then snap everything back together and reinstall the three screws.

replaced the socket per recommendations on this web site. this did not correct the problem.

First, we had to clean up all the interior surfaces, which was just cleaning. There was no internal damage. Then, just setting the center connector, rotary rollers and glass plate. Simple

We took a chance on the less expensive black Whirlpool vent grille as I found online that it would fit our stainless steel Kitchenaid microwave. My husband was able to pry the stainless cover off the broken grille and snap it onto the new black one. Then just screw in the top screws to secure. We are very happy with the stainless/black of the new setup. It goes very well with the stainless/black of the cooktop and oven.

removed perimeter screws from the bottom side and the lower cover is hinged at the wall side. Motor is visible and easily removed with two screws. Take of the old one, install the new one, and reverse the procedure to put the bottom cover back in place. Will nee helper to hold one side of the bottom until couple of screws can be put in on the other side.

Unscrewed glass panel, removed old bulb, cleaned glass panel and installed new bulb. Screwed panel back into place.

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!!!)

Ordered a new motor. Removed the outside trim of the oven-microwave combo. 2 screws at the bottom of the trim. Removed the screws that held the combination micro and oven unit in place. Removed the top and bottom black plastic grill of the microwave. 3 screws each. Pulled the entire unit out about 1 inch exposing the screws at each side of the microwave that hold it in place.
Snapped off the top control panel which exposed the wiring connecting the control panel.
Unplugged a couple of wire harness units to free the control panel.
Be sure to label the units to know which goes where during reassembly.
Remove the microwave unit from the housing and place it on its side.
Remove the metal plate that houses the motor. 4 screws hold the motor in place. Disconnect the 2 wires from the old motor and you are ready to install the new motor. Be sure to TURN OFF THE POWER to the unit at the breaker box and remove the turntable from inside the microwave.

My vent grill fer me microwave done and fell off.

Ordered the glass tray and installed it. Received the orderin about two days.

The most difficult part was getting the old screw out of the top of the grille. Once that was accomplished, the rest was easy as can be. I would highly recommend your service - very good! Thank you!

The part came very quick less than a week. The installation took less than 15 minutes.

Removed retaining screws and broken parts; inserted new grill and screws. Fin!

removed old vent and replaced by snapping in and two screws inserted into right and left top connections.
