Lights bulbs burned out
Really easy for a 75-year old female; just spent more time reading the online manual than actually installing the light bulbs to find out where to access the light bulbs.

Microwave worked perfectly but would no longer heat.
Looked up symptoms on parts select website. Ordered mag and diode. Very easy to take micro off the wall. Easily removed screws holding the skin on. Found diode. Really didn't need to replace it but since I had a new one (fairly cheap), just did so. Diode only installs one way. Can't botch it HOWEVER, MAKE SURE THE ONLY PART OF THE DIODE TO TOUCH THE GROUNDING POLE IS THE SCREW DOWN LEAD. IF THE OPPOSITE END LEAD, THAT WHICH IS THE PUSH ON TERMINAL, TOUCHES THE GROUNDING POLE, YOU'LL GET ARCHY SPARKY. The magnetron goes in very easy. Simply pay attention to how you removed it and reverse that process installing the new one. There are easy to use YouTube videos that show magnetron replacement. You can do this easily and save your microwave and $$ while doing so.

Replace bulb under the microwave
Piece of cake. One screw to release the dropdown light diffuser. Just remember, the you're screwing the new bulb in from a reverse perspective. Also this site sends the correct part the first time.

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.
