Do-It-Yourself Stories from Customers like You Light flickering when open door & stays on when door opened Jo B. • Vandalia , OH • March 01, 2020

Do-It-Yourself Stories from Customers like You Microwave needed new door switches Marie W. • Columbus , OH • March 01, 2017

I'm a 56 year old divorced woman. I started doing these kinds of repairs to save some money and honestly, to see if I could. So yes, if I can do it, it's not that tough to do. My microwave is built in above the stove - getting it down and back up was the hardest part of the job. An extra pair of strong hands really helps-for anybody, not just a 56 year old woman.

I googled the microwave model #, then price checked the same item I thought we needed; printed off the diagrams of the various microwave "systems" &... Read more
