Susan for Model Number Whirlpool mh1150xms-1 The handle came off my Whirlpool microwave (MH1150xms-1), and there are two small tube type plastic pieces that connected the door handle to the door. I don't see that listed as one of the parts offered on here, do you know what they are called and how I can replace that?
Answer Hello Susan, It sounds like the plastic parts you described as "tubes" have broken from the handle 8169738, and the door will have to be disassembled to replace it. To do this, the door choke around the glass on the inside of the door assembly will have to be carefully removed to access the handle screws. This is done by using a putty knife and carefully prying the choke cover away from the door frame. As a note, this only needs to be don on the top and the door handle end of the door so it can pivot for access to the door handle screws. You will have to hold the "tubes" with a pair of pliers to unscrew the screws from them. Reuse these screws to install the new handle. Read More...
