Lmv2257 Parts

The Installation Hardware Kit is an OEM part for LG microwaves. It includes all the necessary mounting brackets, screws, and other hardware components required for a proper and secure installation of the microwave. This kit ensures a safe and stable fitment, whether the microwave is being installed over the range, built into cabinetry, or mounted on the wall.

Causes of needing a new installation hardware kit can include missing or damaged components from the original kit, or requirements for a different installation type or location.

Symptoms indicating the need for a new kit include:

• Unstable or loose microwave installation
• Difficulty in properly aligning or securing the microwave
• Missing brackets or hardware pieces

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.

This humidity sensor assembly monitors moisture inside the microwave cavity during Sensor Cook and Reheat cycles, allowing the control to automatically adjust time and power. Replacing a failed sensor can restore accurate, reliable sensor-based cooking performance. What it does:

• Detects steam/humidity in the cavity for auto-sensing cook and reheat programs
• Sends feedback to the control board to adjust power levels and cook time
• Failure symptoms include sensor cook not starting, stopping early, "sensor" error messages, or inconsistent results on auto settings

• One humidity sensor assembly

• Unplug the appliance before service; microwaves contain a high-voltage capacitor that can retain a dangerous charge
• Handle the sensor face carefully and keep it clean; route and secure the wire harness as originally

This turntable coupler connects the microwave's turntable motor to the glass tray, rotating it for even, consistent heating. Replace a worn or cracked hub to restore smooth tray motion and reduce noise during cooking.

• Couples the turntable motor to the glass tray for even heating
• Replaces a worn, cracked, or stripped hub that prevents rotation
• Helps reduce tray wobble and scraping sounds from the center
• Common symptoms: tray not turning, intermittent rotation, clicking/grinding at the hub

• Disconnect power before servicing; microwaves contain high-voltage components
• Remove the glass tray and roller ring; lift the old coupler straight up from the motor shaft (some models may require access from below per instructions)
• Align the new coupler with the keyed motor shaft and press it fully into place
• Reinstall the roller ring and tray; verify smooth, centered rotation

Replacement door handle that restores a secure, comfortable grip and original appearance to your refrigerator door. Matches the factory fit and finish for a straightforward swap without replacing the full door. What it does:

• Provides a sturdy, ergonomic grip for opening and closing the refrigerator door
• Replaces cracked, loose, broken, or cosmetically damaged handles
• Restores the original look and helps maintain normal door operation
• Intended to use with the refrigerator's factory mounting locations and fasteners

• Use basic hand tools; remove any trim or access panels to reach the handle fasteners
• Support the door while removing/installing the handle to avoid damage or misalignment
• Retain and reuse original screws/fasteners unless new hardware is explicitly supplied
• Refer to your model's service manual for step-by-step instructions and follow all safety precautions

This part is the base for the small simmer burner on gas cooktops. It supports the burner cap and channels gas to the flame ports to promote consistent ignition and an even, stable flame. What it does

• Serves as the burner base for the auxiliary/simmer position
• Aligns and supports the burner cap for even flame distribution
• Routes gas from the orifice to the burner ports
• Common symptoms include weak or uneven flames, difficulty lighting with a known-good spark, or a cap that won't sit flat

• One auxiliary burner holder

• Disconnect power and shut off the gas supply before servicing
• Remove the grate and burner cap; take out mounting screws and lift off the old holder
• Transfer/reuse the orifice, igniter electrode, gasket, and hardware as applicable; seat the new holder evenly and tighten fasteners without over-torquing
• Restore gas and power; verify proper ignition and flame

This door interlock micro switch is part of the microwave's latch assembly. It detects when the door is fully closed so the oven only runs when latched, helping restore safe, consistent start/stop operation.

• Senses door-latch position within the interlock assembly
• Cuts power when the door opens; permits operation when fully closed
• Helps resolve "won't start" complaints or stopping when the door is jostled
• Often fixes the need to press or lift the door to keep the unit running

• Unplug the microwave before servicing; high-voltage components can retain a dangerous charge.
• Access the interlock/latch bracket behind the control panel; note switch orientation and terminal labels (COM, NO/NC).
• Transfer wires to the new switch, secure it in the bracket, and ensure the actuator aligns with the door latch.
• Reassemble and test with a cup of water to ensure proper start/stop operation.

This customized nut is a small fastener used to secure components inside an appliance. Replacing a stripped, rusted, or missing nut restores a tight hold, reduces vibration, and helps keep panels and brackets properly aligned.

• Threads onto a matching screw or bolt to clamp parts together
• Maintains alignment of panels, brackets, and internal assemblies
• Helps prevent vibration, looseness, and rattling during operation
• Common failure signs: missing hardware, stripped threads, or components that won't stay tight

• Disconnect power; turn off water or gas before servicing
• Match the thread size/pitch to the original fastener before installation
• Hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading; tighten until snug—do not overtighten
• Replace any worn companion hardware (screw/bolt/washer) as needed

This thermostat is a temperature-sensitive safety switch for select LG microwaves. It monitors heat at its mounting point and interrupts power when overheating is detected, helping protect internal components and restore operation once temperatures return to normal.

• Monitors temperature at its mounting location inside the microwave
• Opens the circuit to interrupt power when temperatures exceed its rating
• Helps prevent heat-related damage to internal components
• Failure symptoms include mid-cycle shutoff, no heat or no start after an overheat event, or abnormal vent/cooling fan operation

• Disconnect power at the outlet or breaker before servicing
• Microwaves contain a high-voltage capacitor; discharge it properly before touching internal parts
• Note wire positions and transfer one lead at a time; mount the thermostat firmly for accurate heat sensing
• Inspect and replace any burnt connectors; ensure clean contact with the mounting surface

This molded resin cover restores a clean, finished look while protecting the underlying assembly. Use it to replace a cracked or missing cover so components stay shielded and properly secured during normal operation. What it does:

• Shields internal components and provides a finished appearance for the covered area
• Helps keep dust, grease, and debris away from internal parts as designed
• Replaces covers with broken tabs, cracks, warping, or missing sections
• Common symptoms include a loose/rattling panel, poor fit, or visible damage

• One resin cover

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Remove any mounting screws and/or release tabs; note the orientation for reassembly
• Transfer reusable clips or hardware from the original cover if applicable
• Do not overtighten fasteners to avoid cracking the plastic
