This plastic frame helps block microwave energy from leaking and keeps the door sealed tight. The good news? It\u2019s not hard to replace, and you don\u2019t need to be a technician to do it. Grab a few tools and we\u2019ll walk you through the process step-by-step.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/aARbREVEUXc\"><b>Watch: How to Replace the Microwave Choke Cover<\/b><\/a>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The information in this article may not apply to your specific appliance model. We recommend consulting your manufacturer's documentation or<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/repair-help\/\"> <b>contact us<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with any questions.<\/span><\/em>\r\n\r\n[lwptoc numeration=\"none\"]\r\n<p style=\"font-size:14.5px;margin:14px 0;font-family:system-ui,-apple-system,sans-serif\"><a href=\"#app-safety-notes\">Full safety notes below<\/a><\/p>\n\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What Is a Microwave Choke Cover?<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First things first, what exactly is a microwave choke cover? This is a crucial component you'll find installed along the inside frame of the microwave door.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The cover wraps around the window preventing microwaves from leaking out through small gaps in the door. The waved metal pattern you see on some covers helps block this electromagnetic energy.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over time, normal wear and tear can cause the thin metal cover to bend or break. If damaged, small amounts of radiation can seep out, impacting the microwave's performance. Replacing the old cover restores safety and efficiency.<\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Safety precautions\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Safety should always be a priority when working on any appliance. Here are a few practical tips to help you stay safe:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Turn off the power to the appliance by unplugging it or switching off the circuit breaker before starting any maintenance or repairs. This protects you from the risk of electric shock.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wear insulated gloves to shield your hands from sharp edges, pinching hazards, or debris.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Work at a steady pace and take your time to avoid accidents or injuries.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure your workspace is well-lit so you can clearly see and access the parts you\u2019re working on.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep the area clear of clutter, and ensure children and pets stay out of the workspace.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Never handle internal parts with wet hands. Check that both your hands and the work area are completely dry.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Refer to your appliance\u2019s user manual for any specific instructions or safety guidelines related to the part or repair.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Handle parts gently to avoid damage to the appliance or potential injuries from applying too much force.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use safety glasses when dealing with chemicals, dust, or large debris to protect your eyes from harm.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the appliance was recently used, give it enough time to cool down before working on any heated components.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take photos or notes of wiring connections and terminals before disconnecting anything to make reassembly easier.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid touching exposed wires or terminals. If you must handle wires, use non-conductive tools or wear insulated gloves to minimize the risk of electrical shock.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Microwave Choke Cover Replacement\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove the Old Cover<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With your tools gathered, it's time to take off the existing choke cover:<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Locate the plastic locking tabs - The cover snaps securely into place using small plastic tabs protruding through holes along the door frame.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Insert a putty knife - To remove the tab from the hole, gently slide a putty knife underneath it, being careful not to apply too much force that might cause the brittle tab to break.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use a second putty knife to brace - As you release each subsequent tab, position another putty knife inside the door panel behind the cover. This braces it so the freed tabs don't snap back into place.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Work around the entire cover - Slowly make your way around the entire perimeter of the cover, releasing tab after tab. There may also be a central locking tab to detach.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove the old cover - To free each tab, carefully and gently pull the cover away from the door. Make sure to set aside this choke cover, as it will not be needed for reuse. Take your time and make sure that all tabs are released before proceeding.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Install the Replacement<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here's how quick and easy it is to mount the new replacement choke cover:<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Position the new cover - Orient the replacement cover by aligning it correctly with the door. Make sure the tabs on the cover are in perfect alignment with the corresponding holes on the door frame for a secure fit.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Press tabs into place - To get a secure fit, carefully start at one end and apply gentle but firm pressure to each plastic tab. Push them into the corresponding holes until you hear a satisfying click, indicating a successful lock. Continue this process as you make your way around the entire cover, guaranteeing a snug and reliable closure.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inspect the installation -Carefully double-check that all the tabs are fully inserted into their designated slots. Once confirmed, make sure that the cover sits perfectly flat, leaving no room for misalignment or protrusions. As the final step, firmly close the door and verify that it shuts seamlessly without any noticeable gaps in its closure.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That's all there is to it! In no time at all you've breathed new life into your microwave with a fresh choke cover.<\/span>\r\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Test and Use Your Microwave<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the new part installed, the last step is confirming your appliance works correctly:<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plug microwave back in - Restore power to the outlet and press the open\/close button to check the door functions normally.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Test heating - Microwave a cup of water and verify it heats up properly without issues.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enjoy your revived microwave - You did it!
