Parts for Goldstar MV1502B: Interior Parts (I) Parts

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.

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 motor drives your microwave's glass tray, rotating food for more even heating. Replacing a failing motor restores proper tray movement and helps reduce cold spots during cooking. What it does:

• Rotates the glass tray via the turntable coupler during cook cycles
• Helps promote even heating by keeping food moving
• Addresses symptoms such as the tray not turning, intermittent rotation, or grinding/clicking noises from beneath the cavity
• Useful check: ensure the roller ring and coupler aren't damaged or obstructed

• 1 turntable motor

• Disconnect power; microwaves contain high-voltage components that can retain a charge
• Typically accessed from the unit's bottom panel; remove the cover to reach the motor
• Move the two wires and mounting screws from the old motor to the new one; align the shaft with the coupler
• After reassembly, confirm the tray sits correctly on the roller ring and spins freely

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 high-voltage capacitor for the appliance's high-voltage circuit that stores and releases electrical energy to support proper heating operation. Replacing a failing capacitor can restore consistent heating and prevent related electrical faults. What it does:

• Stores and delivers high-voltage energy used by the magnetron/ high-voltage assembly to generate heat.
• Failure may cause no-heat or weak-heat conditions in the oven.
• Faulty capacitors can contribute to arcing, loud humming, or blown high-voltage fuses.
• Works as part of the HV circuit; not a user-serviceable low-voltage control.

• High-voltage components can hold a dangerous charge—disconnect power and discharge the capacitor before servicing.
• Use insulated tools and avoid touching terminals; verify proper operation with appropriate test equipment.

The Magnetron is an OEM part for LG microwaves. It is responsible for generating the microwaves that cook or heat the food inside the appliance. The magnetron converts electrical energy into microwave radiation, ensuring efficient and even heating.

Causes of a bad magnetron can include prolonged use, electrical surges, or overheating. Over time, these factors can lead to the magnetron wearing out or failing completely.

Symptoms of a bad Magnetron include:

• The microwave not heating food
• Strange noises during operation
• Burning smell or smoke
• The microwave shutting off unexpectedly

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

The Diode Assembly is an OEM replacement part for LG microwaves. As an electrical part, it plays a key role in regulating power distribution throughout the microwave. 

Symptoms of a bad diode assembly can include:

• Lights or displays failing to illuminate  
• Inability to power the microwave or select cooking functions
• Intermittent or unexpected shutting off during use
• Sparking, burning smells or tripped circuit breakers

Causes may arise from repetitively fluctuating power loads degrading individual diodes over time. Moisture intrusion into electrical pathways can also cause issues.

This genuine LG OEM assembly is also compatible with some Kenmore microwave models as well.
