Lg 5230W1A012E Grease Filter OEM Part

I bought a house that had an old (but serviceable) Kenmore microwave over the stove. When I cooked on the stove the poor microwave filters couldn't do their job and the whole house got stunk out.. I drove to Sears who didn't stock them. I went online to Sears.com and they didn't stock them either. Then I found AppliancePartsPros.com and they had everything really cheap!! I ordered them and immediately replaced the grease filters with no tools. I looked at the schematic drawing for the carbon filter and immediately figured out how to take off the front grill with a screwdriver and replace the filter. The whole job took less than 20 minutes using just the schematic drawing and a screwdriver. I saved a ton of $$ and have the old (but still nice) Kenmore microwave up and running without stinking out my house.

Careful placement of new screws into the inside of the outer door that now hold the frame assembly to the door secured the frame assembly to the outer door. All of the other parts I bought and replaced were a waste of money. I figured since I had them I might as well install them anyways. Easier than sending them back since I had the whole thing apart anyways. The part I really needed was no longer available, the outside door. The glass reinstalled into the retainers in the door without a problem. At least everything is very clean now !!

It was really easy to replace the parts myself all of about 10 minutes.

I ordered new filters and pulled the old ones out and put the new ones in.

Disconnected power cable. Took off 8 screw from bottom of vent tray. Lowered tray to rest on a 12 in. bucket set on top of my elec. range and disconnected electrical clip from broken Vent Lock. Punched out the Vent Lock and inserted the new Vent Lock. Pushed to close and open the vent on the newly installed Vent Lock - problem solved.
