The LG microwave glass tray is an OEM replacement part for LG countertop microwaves. Located inside the microwave cavity, the glass tray provides a flat, durable surface for cooking and heating food items. The tray measures about 13 inches in diameter.

Causes of a bad glass tray can include cracks or chips from impact damage, prolonged exposure to high heat levels, or chemical etching from acidic food spills.

Symptoms of a bad glass tray microwave include:

• Cracks, chips, or breaks in the glass compromising structural integrity
• Difficulty removing or placing the tray due to a poor sliding fit  
• Food particles or liquids seeping below the tray and needing cleaning
• Visibility issues looking inside the microwave cavity  

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore countertop microwave models.

This turntable shaft (MH-8) connects the microwave's turntable motor to the glass tray hub so the tray spins for even heating. Replace it when the tray won't rotate, slips intermittently, or makes grinding/clicking noises.

• Couples the turntable motor to the tray hub to drive rotation
• Helps ensure even cooking and defrosting by keeping the tray moving
• Typical symptoms: tray not turning, intermittent/jerky rotation, grinding or clicking from the cavity floor
• Damage indicators: cracks, melted/rounded drive surfaces, or excessive wobble

• Disconnect power to the microwave at the plug or breaker before servicing
• Remove the glass tray and roller ring to access the shaft
• Lift the old shaft straight up; if stuck, access the turntable motor from below to push it out
• Align and press the new shaft fully onto the motor spindle; reassemble and test rotation

A direct-replacement circulating motor that moves air inside the refrigerator cabinet to help maintain even temperatures and consistent cooling. Replacing a worn motor restores airflow and can reduce warm spots and uneven cooling. What it does:

• Drives internal airflow to distribute cold air between compartments for more uniform temperatures.
• Restores circulation when a failed motor causes weak or no airflow.
• Common, safe-to-report symptoms: uneven cooling, warm spots in the fridge, the appliance running more than usual, or unusual humming/noise from the cabinet.
• Works with the appliance's wiring harness and mounting system to deliver continuous air movement while the cooling system runs.

• Always unplug the appliance before beginning service to avoid electric shock.
• Handle the motor and fan blades carefully to avoid bending or damage; keep fingers and tools clear of blades.
• Confirm correct connector orientation and secure mounting to prevent vibration or rubbing.
• After installing, power up briefly to verify the motor runs and the fan spins freely before reassembling panels.

A Tap-Tite binding-head screw used to fasten appliance panels and components where a self-tapping metal thread is required. Replaces missing or damaged fasteners to restore secure assembly and reduce vibration or rattling. What it does:

• Creates its own mating thread in thin sheet metal for a secure hold without a nut.
• Holds panels, brackets, and trim in place to prevent looseness or movement.
• Commonly used where stripped, missing, or broken screws cause rattling, misalignment, or parts that won't stay attached.
• Compatible with standard screwdrivers or nut drivers sized to the binding-head.

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before working on it.
• Use the correct driver bit to avoid cam-out or head damage.
• Start straight and apply steady pressure; avoid overtightening to prevent stripping the formed threads.
• If the original hole is badly damaged, assess for repair or use of a larger fastener as needed.
