Stirrer fan cover was melted

This repai me couldn’t have been simpler! I noticed that the stirrer fan cover on our microwave had melted areas. My husband suggested we just buy a new microwave. As the handywoman of the family, I searched online to see if it was a fix that I could handle. I ordered a part for less than $20 and fixed it in about 30 seconds! All I had to do was pop out the plastic screw, put the fan in the new cover, and pop it back into place!

installed new kitchen cabinets

the problem was the mounting bracket that was installed when the house was built ,was not the bracket that came with the microwave. It was used to step the microwave out 3" in front of the other cabinets for the style that they were using then. so when I was installing the new cabinets I didn't want that style, so I ordered the original mounting bracket. It was a perfect fit and the install went great

To heat a cup of coffee, user entered "10:00" instead of "1:00". Mess! After cleanup, microwave ran, but would not heat. While running, it made 2 or 3 time the noise volume as before.

I went for the cheap things first. Ohmmeter showed one of the thermostats in the magnetron compartment was open. I ordered and replaced all three thermostats. Still no heat. I took the unit off the wall (aaarrgh!) and checked the oven cavity thermal cutout. It said 7 ohms. I tested by shorting the wires together, but still no heat. So, I ordered the magnetron and diode cable. When replacing the diode cable (be sure to discharge the big cap!) either I broke it, or it was already damaged. It came off in two pieces. The new diode cable was re-enforced with thick heat shrink tubing, to prevent such breaking. You need a very short screwdriver to replace the magnetron. Now, all fixed! ~$150. A new one lists for $2000, installed in the overhead. My wife thinks I am a genius.

Replace bulb under microwave

Part Select sent the wrong part I did not realize it until prong broke off one of the bulbs. They sent 130v instead of 120v. Return bulbs awaiting resolution.

Very loud noise when cooking

I opened it up, found there is sparks on the diode when cooking, I replaced the diode first, still no heat, I found all the switches and thermal stats were normal, there is 120V AC input to the transformer, so I tried to make a good guess and bought a Magnetron from Partselect, after I installed the new Magnetron, there is heat and the microwave is working.

Microwave’s Halogen Light Bulb burned out.

Our Microwave’s Halogen Light Bulb burned out.

We looked in our manual and were able to take the cover off to get to the bulb, but we were unable to unscrew the builb and the bulb in the manual did not match the size of the one you offer (size and part number were different)

We called 1-888-738-4871.

Gentleman who answered was very knowledgeable: answered all of our questions (PULL THE OLD BULB OUT) and assisted us by ordering replacement bulbs.

We (more importantly my wife) were very pleased with the result.
