• Tighten until snug; do not overtighten to prevent stripping
• If the receiving hole is damaged, for repair before installing the new screw

This microwave thermostat is the safety control that monitors temperature and opens the circuit if overheating is detected, protecting internal components. Replace it if your oven is dead, loses heat, or shuts off mid-cycle due to a failed thermostat. What it does:

• Monitors temperature and interrupts power when overheating occurs to help prevent damage
• Helps protect internal components and wiring from excessive heat
• Failure can cause: no power, shuts off during or shortly after starting, or runs but does not heat
• Replacing a failed thermostat helps restore normal operation and safety protections

• 1 thermostat

• Unplug the appliance; microwaves contain high-voltage components that can retain a lethal charge even when unplugged
• Remove the outer cover to access the thermostat; location varies by model
• Move wires one at a time to the new thermostat and mount it firmly against the mating surface for proper heat sensing
• Reassemble, restore power, and test operation

A high-voltage capacitor for the appliance's high-voltage circuit that stores and releases electrical energy to support proper heating operation. Replacing a failing capacitor can restore consistent heating and prevent related electrical faults. What it does:

• Stores and delivers high-voltage energy used by the magnetron/ high-voltage assembly to generate heat.
• Failure may cause no-heat or weak-heat conditions in the oven.
• Faulty capacitors can contribute to arcing, loud humming, or blown high-voltage fuses.
• Works as part of the HV circuit; not a user-serviceable low-voltage control.

• High-voltage components can hold a dangerous charge—disconnect power and discharge the capacitor before servicing.
• Use insulated tools and avoid touching terminals; verify proper operation with appropriate test equipment.

This canopy resistor regulates current to a range-hood or canopy fan circuit to help the blower run at the correct speeds. Replacing a failing resistor can restore proper fan speed control and stop intermittent operation. What it does:

• Controls electrical resistance in the canopy/blower circuit to help regulate fan speeds.
• Helps prevent the motor from running only on a single speed or from failing to start at selected speeds.
• Can cause symptoms such as inconsistent fan speeds, no response from speed controls, or occasional fan cutoff.
• Works with the hood's wiring and control switch to deliver the correct voltage to the fan motor.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing the canopy or electrical connections.
• Inspect wiring and connectors for heat damage or corrosion; replace harness or terminals if damaged.

This is a truss-head tapping screw used to secure trim, panels, and small assemblies on compatible LG appliances. It provides a low-profile, wide-bearing head that helps hold parts flush and resist pull-through. What it does:

• Fastens plastic and sheet-metal components where a self-tapping thread is needed
• Truss head spreads load to prevent damage to soft or thin materials
• Helps secure control panels, brackets, or trim pieces that require a low-profile head
• Common replacement when original mounting screws are missing, stripped, or corroded

• One truss-head tapping screw

• Use the correct screwdriver bit and moderate torque to avoid stripping the screw or workpiece
• Start threading straight and let the screw form threads without forcing at an angle
• Disconnect power and follow appliance-specific service safety procedures before working internally
• Replace any damaged mating threads or clips for a secure fit

The Interlock Door Switch is an OEM part for LG microwaves. It is a safety component located on the door of the microwave designed to prevent the microwave from operating unless the door is securely closed. The interlock door switch works with the microwave's electronic control board to sense when the door is open or closed and allow or disallow operation accordingly.

Causes of a bad interlock door switch can include normal wear and tear from repeated opening and closing of the microwave door over time.

Symptoms of a bad interlock door switch include:

• The microwave runs or heats with the door open
• Error codes or diagnostic messages related to door sensors on the control board
• The microwave fails to operate even when the door is securely closed

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Sears/Kenmore microwaves.

Inner plastic door film covers the holes in the inner door frame.
