How to Troubleshoot & Replace Whirlpool AP5617368 / W10208631A Grease Range Hood Microwave Filter 5-15/16" X 13-3/8" X 3/32"

After looking online and finding reports that the bulbs at big box stores wouldn't work, I found this site. I read the reviews and decided to replace both lights and filters. Parts arrived and are working great as I expected. I'll keep your website handy for all future home repairs. 

Very easy 10 minutes. 

It was so easy to find and order the right parts from Appliance Parts Pros! I also love the feature that helps you confirm that the parts you are ordering fit your appliance. Delivery is very fast, and prices reasonable. I've used Appliance Parts Pros in the past and will again in the future! Thank you! 

This was super easy! The dirty filters are just remove and replace items. The microwave essentially tells you when the filters should be replaced. The grease filter however, requires the removal of the Grill-Vent for access. There are two screws holding the vent in place and I had noticed when cleaning the area one day that whoever installed the vent on initial installation overtightened the screws and cracked the vent mounting holes. As a result the vent was a little shaky. I decided, since I had to remove the cracked vent to replace the grease filter, to also get a new vent. So - two screws and a little Windex to clean the area up and the filters and vent were replaced. Total time was about 20 minutes. It would have been 15 minutes if I remembered where the step-stool was... 

Ordered necessary parts and replaced the bad ones. Microwave like new again! 

Easy to replace 

Ordered door, grill vent, upper light bulb, and charcoal filter. Parts came very quickly, 1 or 2 days. Easy repair and microwave looks and works great. 

This was a very easy repair, simply removing screws. You do need a Torx bit to remove the magnetron. It is easier with two people getting the microwave removed and put back up. 

Replaced filter. 

Someone gave me this microwave over the range unit and was missing a few parts/accessories so I went to AppliancePartsPro's website and entered my model number and was able to find everything I was missing. So I placed the order and everything was in stock and shipped right out. So now I have a complete Microwave / over the range hood that performs like a new one with all it accessories.
