Parts for Kenmore 911.4942991 (9114942991, 911 4942991): Microwave Body Parts

This replacement cushion is a small rubber/foam bumper that cushions moving parts and reduces vibration and noise for a quieter, smoother appliance operation. It helps prevent metal-on-metal contact and wear where installed. What it does:

• Absorbs shock and vibration to protect panels, doors, or components
• Dampens noise caused by moving or rattling parts
• Prevents direct metal-to-metal contact and cosmetic wear
• Helps maintain proper alignment of the part it cushions

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any work
• Typically press-fits into a mounting hole or snaps into place; no special tools usually required
• Inspect mating surfaces for damage or debris and clean before installing

This microwave high-voltage capacitor stores and releases energy in the high-voltage circuit to power the magnetron. Replacing a failed capacitor helps restore proper heating and protects other components in the high-voltage system.

• Works with the transformer and high-voltage diode to supply the magnetron with the required voltage
• Failure may result in the unit running but not heating
• Shorted capacitors can blow the internal fuse or trip a breaker; opens may cause loud humming or buzzing
• Visible swelling or leakage on the capacitor body are common failure signs

• Unplug the microwave; capacitors can retain a dangerous charge even when unplugged—discharge using an appropriate, insulated method before servicing
• Note wire positions and terminal orientation; transfer any mounting hardware from the original part
• Mount securely and route wires to avoid pinching

This magnetron generates microwave energy to heat food in compatible countertop and over-the-range microwaves. Replacing a worn magnetron restores cooking power and helps eliminate uneven heating or failure to heat. What it does:

• Converts high-voltage electrical power into microwave radiation used to cook and reheat food
• Common symptom: oven runs but food doesn't heat or heats very slowly
• May also be needed if you notice loud buzzing, arcing, or burning odors during operation
• Works with the microwave's high-voltage system; other components may also need inspection

• One magnetron (single unit as shown)

• Disconnect power and discharge the microwave's high-voltage capacitor before servicing
• Inspect surrounding parts (waveguide, diode, capacitor, and cooling fan) for damage during replacement
• Use only the correct replacement part number to ensure proper fit and safe operation

This is a replacement mounting screw used to secure panels and components on compatible appliances. It restores proper fit and prevents rattling or loose parts for a safe, stable appliance. What it does:

• Secures panels, trim, brackets or small components in place
• Replaces missing or stripped fasteners that cause rattling or loose parts
• Helps maintain appliance alignment and safe operation when installed properly
• Small fastener for interior or exterior appliance assemblies

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) before servicing the appliance
• Use the correct screwdriver and hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading
• Do not overtighten; snug until secure to prevent stripping or damaging parts

This is a genuine replacement mounting screw used to secure panels and components on compatible appliances, restoring safe, stable connections and stopping loose or vibrating parts. Easy to swap when other fasteners are stripped or lost. What it does:

• Fastens panels, trim, and internal components to the appliance chassis
• Restores secure fitment to stop rattling, gaps, or misaligned panels
• Replaces stripped, missing, or corroded screws that prevent proper assembly
• Works wherever the original mounting screw is used on the appliance

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Use the correct driver bit and apply steady pressure to avoid stripping the head
• Do not overtighten; snug until parts are secure to prevent cracking or thread damage

ST10-16 X 7/16"

This lower trim clip secures the appliance's lower trim or kickplate, keeping panels aligned and preventing rattles or gaps. It's a small but essential fastener for a finished, stable exterior. What it does:

• Holds the lower trim or kickplate in place to keep the front panel aligned
• Prevents trim from sagging, rattling, or separating from the cabinet
• Restores a secure fit after a broken or worn clip
• Works behind the trim to keep visible edges flush for a clean appearance

• The lower trim clip shown

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting work to avoid electrical hazards
• Access the clip by removing the lower trim or kickplate per your model's service instructions
• Use appropriate hand tools and gentle pressure to avoid cracking trim pieces
• Replace any damaged clips with matching parts; inspect surrounding fasteners for wear
