The Microwave Turntable Motor is an OEM replacement part for LG over-the-range microwaves. This motor is responsible for powering the turntable inside the microwave cavity, ensuring even heating and cooking of food items.  

Symptoms of a bad motor include: 

• The turntable not spinning or turning intermittently
• Loud buzzing or grinding noises coming from the microwave interior
• The turntable spinning but not evenly or at the proper speed
• Smoke or burning smells coming from the microwave

Causes of a bad motor can include normal wear and tear over extended use, residue or debris buildup interfering with operation, or failure of internal motor components.

The Door Latch Housing and Interlock Switch Assembly is an OEM replacement part for LG microwaves. It consists of the protective door latch housing casing along with the two-door switches and interlock switch.

The interlock switch prevents microwave energy from being generated inside the oven when the door is open. It shuts off all power once a faulty seal is detected between the door and cavity.

Symptoms of issues can include:

• Microwave failing to turn on or cook with the door open
• Sparking or arcing seen near the door seal or frame
• Error codes displayed related to interlock detection faults

Compatible models include some GE, Kenmore, and Samsung units using matching door designs sourced from LG.

The Door Latch Hook is an OEM replacement part for LG microwaves. Located internally on the door frame, this metal hook secures firmly into the microwave's door latch bracket when closed. As a common wear point, the hook can experience minor warping over many years of use.

Causes of a bad door latch hook include normal wear and tear, loss of tension, or deformation from frequent door opening and closing cycles long-term.

Symptoms of a bad latch hook include:

• Door that does not close fully or completely latch in place  
• Gaps forming in the door seal when shut
• Inability to achieve a tight, solid seal around the perimeter 
• Latch hook failing to grasp the bracket securely

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

This bracket assembly provides a secure mounting point for internal components, keeping parts aligned and stable for reliable appliance operation. It restores proper support where a worn or broken bracket causes rattling or misalignment. What it does:

• Secures and supports internal components or panels to prevent movement and vibration
• Restores proper alignment for parts that have shifted due to a damaged bracket
• Helps eliminate rattling, knocking, or loose-panel noises caused by broken mounting points
• Maintains spacing that ensures connected parts operate smoothly

• Disconnect power before beginning any repair to avoid electrical shock
• Inspect surrounding fasteners and mounting surfaces; replace any stripped screws or damaged clips
• Use appropriate hand tools; avoid over-tightening fasteners which can crack plastic parts
