the handle and lower right corner of the plastic door cover had broken
repair was very straight forward and can be done by anyone with reasonable mechanical ability. I read in a couple places where appliance repair people had said it was best to replace micro wave unit as it was near impossible to do repair. Pure rubbish; only problem I had was when the door and glass u it arrived the glass wasn't glued in completely and I had to clue it myself. I removed the three screws on the right end of the door and took my large pocket knife and ran it down the joint where the outer cover meets the metal door. first the top and then the bottom and the old door popped right off. removed the old handle from old door for the screws needed to reattach the new handle to new cover. I started the screws on the counter to get threads started in plastic made attaching to cover easier. hen started by pushing the new cover onto the left end of door the continued squeezing the cover on along to the right first top and then the bottom a little at a time and it snapped right in for me with a fair amount of pressure, replaced the three screws and it works great looks like new. I did remove the upper vent to clean and that helped some with installing. Very easy and beat the heck out of trying to replace the entire unit. I think the so called appliance repair people only wanted to sell and install a new one for $$$$.

Age-related concern: 13-year old filter had never been serviced.
Used a phillips screwdriver to remove 4 retaining screws located on the top leading edge of the unit, just above the door. Note the screws on the far left and far right are shorter than the middle two. After removing and cleaning the plastic vent, the small, square charcoal filter is revealed in the center, and is easily removed (noting its installation position first!). Take advantage of the opportunity to thoroughly clean the inside using a cloth soaked in degreaser before replacing the filter, the vent, and the 4 screws.

Microwave turns on but did not heat
Loosened but did not remove screws that held up microwave over range,removed grill on top by loosening screws that held grill in place.removed small mesh grill on right side of microwave, this gave me access to capacitor ,diode is connected from one lead of capacitor to a metal plate ground,Disccarged capacitor to ground by shorting terminals to ground using a thick insulated screwdriver.Since the diode was screwed to the top of the metal plate I cut it out with a pair of side cutters .I then connected the new diode to the capacitor with my long nose pliers and groonded the other end to a more accessible part of the metal grounding plate.I then replaced all parts in reverse order.Works like a charm.
