Parts for Lg RCS511A: Interior Parts

Mounting screw for microwave assembly. Secures internal or external components. Replace if stripped, missing, or damaged during repair or installation.

This is a wire holder clip used inside a microwave to secure and route internal wiring. It keeps wires organized and safely positioned away from heat sources and moving components. Replace this holder if it is broken or missing, which can allow wires to hang loose and potentially contact hot surfaces or interfere with other parts.

Mounting screw for ovens, ranges, and microwaves. Secures panels, brackets, and internal components. Replace if stripped, missing, or damaged.

This thermostat controls oven/dryer temperature by opening or closing its contacts as the appliance reaches set temperatures, helping maintain safe and consistent operation. Replaces a worn or failed thermostat to restore proper temperature regulation. What it does:

• Senses temperature and interrupts heating when limits are reached to prevent overheating
• Re-establishes heating when temperature falls, maintaining normal cycle performance
• Commonly installed when an appliance won't heat, overheats, or cycles erratically
• Works as a direct replacement for the OEM thermostat designed for compatible LG units

• One thermostat

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Note wire locations or take a photo before removing wiring; reconnect wires to the same terminals
• Use a multimeter to verify thermostat continuity and correct operation before and after replacement

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.

Truss head tapping screw secures panels, brackets, and covers in appliances. Replaces missing or damaged fasteners to restore snug fit and alignment.

Microwave won't turn on or has no power? A failed thermostat often causes complete power loss. Moderate DIY repair requires disassembly to access.

Microwave won't heat but runs normally? A failed magnetron is the likely cause. This part generates the microwaves that cook food. Moderate DIY repair.
