Microwave turntable not turning? The turntable motor rotates the glass tray for even heating. Simple DIY repair with basic tools in under an hour.
Unplug your microwave. Took the screws off of the bottom of the unit with it still on the cabinet. The whole bottom panel swung down to expose the turntable motor. I took the power cable loose (just pull it off). It was one screw to take the motor out. Word to the wise: DON'T try to take the plastic coupler off before the motor. Their is a tab that holds it in while the motor is in place. If you pry it up you will break it, trust me. ;) Turn the motor out of its housing and it come right out.... Read more

Shields the stirrer assembly from grease and splatter while distributing cooking energy evenly. Replace if cracked, melted, or burnt to prevent arcing. Verify fit with your model number.
We just popped the replacement parts in. By the way, Sears that sells the Kenmore, the make of our microwave, didn't have the parts we needed online. I was very pleased with my Chat experience with RobinC from your website. She located the parts I needed and even arranged the payment. Great service! Read more

Replaced the thermostat and it turned on and I have power again. Read more

Microwave not heating food? A failed magnetron is the most common cause. This high-voltage tube generates microwave energy to heat and cook food properly.
Chatted with a verified expert at justanswer.com (for a fee), he confirmed the parts I needed. AppliancePartsPros.com had them in stock AND they were 100% returnable/refundable if I didn't use them or weren't what was bad, even if I installed them! Where can you get that kind of guarantee anymore? Used some YouTube videos to learn how to support the microwave to get it down, & we moved it to the table, I took out the old magnetron and high voltage diode and replaced with the OEM magnetron and...

Knowing the odds of 2 failures occurring at the same exact time was unusually high, I just searched your site for what other broken items might affect these two failures. Came up with next control item upstream and tallied that item failure with percentages of successful repairs, (4 mins.) door safety switch. Since I had to change out the most likely of the 3 and since I was already was going to be into the switch panel I ordered all 3 and swapped them all out to cover my butt, as they were... Read more
Controls exhaust airflow in over-the-range microwaves. Replaces bent, damaged, or missing damper assemblies for proper external venting installation.
We followed the manufacturer's instructions about re-positioning the fan motor and installing the vent damper (easy). We constructed a duct system from the microwave to the outside of the house (challenging). We used 3.25" x 10" metal duct to start the system through the wall behind the microwave, where we added framing to reinforce a cut stud. We ran the duct up a closet wall and through its ceiling into the attic. We had to make an offset duct piece from 3.25" x 10" metal duct to clear a... Read more

I replaced the motor by removing 5 screws from the bottom of the microwave and 1 screws from the motor. Very easy to replace, I didn't even have to remove it from the wall (I unplugged it just in case). Read more
Fixes microwaves with no power or that stop mid-cycle. This thermostat switch monitors temperature and protects against overheating. Simple repair.
This is a 25 year old built-in over-the-range appliance. Only previous problem was 1 failed door switch (of 3 total), replaced 2 years ago. First checked all 3 door switches with continuity tester, all ok. Had advice to check thermostat switches, which were all supposedly NC (normally closed), used same tester. Found one thermo that was open, ordered and installed replacement, but oven still dead. Used heat gun to warm the open thermo (while not installed) and using tester again, found that... Read more
Microwave not heating? The magnetron generates the microwaves that heat food. Common repair for units that run but don't warm. DIY-friendly repair.
Replace magnetron. Took longer to remove and disassemble m/w than to replace part. Above range installation. M/w was heavy- be careful. Read more
This rivet assembly is a direct-replacement fastening piece used to secure appliance panels and components, restoring a stable, rattle-free fit and preventing movement caused by worn or broken rivets. What it does:
I replaced the stirrer fan cover and fan, which had some carbon and slight burn marks on it. It was difficult to remove the fan cover as it did not rotate. I had to pry it off with a flat blade screwdriver, breaking the plastic tabs on the cover (which was being discarded anyway). I then cleaned any visible carbon deposits and replaced the cover and fan, using the old stirrer fan holder as it appeared OK. However, I was unable to rotate the cover into the locked position so I could not insert... Read more
