1 Answer Hello Greg, I'm sorry but the charcoal filter cannot be cleaned. It would need to be replaced. We will need to ask you to post a new question including the model number from your units' I.D. tag so we can recommend parts that can be guaranteed to work properly on your unit. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Read More...

Albert December 08, 2019 for Model Number WMH1164Xw5-1 After removing the filters my owes stopped heating. Do I have to do some reset or is there any damages to mi Owens?
1 Answer Hello Albert, there are no operational parts or wiring in the filter area of the microwave. You can unplug the microwave and remove the grill then the control panel screw,,, tip the control panel down and check the wiring to the rear of the control board and the door switches to see if any came loose.

1 Answer Hello Albert, would recheck your model number and repost your question as it shows as an invalid model number. Also, we will need more information, what is running, what is not, is there a display, if you start the microwave does the interior light, cool fan and turntable work, any odd noises when it runs ?

Marlene May 08, 2019 for Model Number WMH31017FS I have a Whirlpool Microwave Hood Combination. The model number is WMH31017FS. I would like to purchase a charcoal filter. Can you please let me know the part number that would fit my microwave. Thank you!
Jim January 16, 2019 for Model Number MMV5208WW0 I know where the charcoal filter is and how to take it out and replace it. I know where to buy a replacement. But, while looking at the unit above the microwave which holds the filter itself, I can't determine if there is any air flow at all during usage. To filter the air through the filter, the air has to enter and then, after going through the filter, exit. There are no diagrams for airflow nor did the young lady at Maytag.com know. What is the flow pattern? The large motors with the fins, have the fins facing toward the wall, not the front of the microwave. (You have to admit this is a question from someone who has read the User Manual and Instructions so I know the who, what, where and why of the filter placement. don't these people keep the manuals?)
1 Answer Jim, the air is going to be brought in through the bottom where the grease filter is. From there, the fan in the top back of your microwave is going to vent the air out whether it is out through the front where the charcoal filter is, or through a top vent if one is installed. Read More...
