Microwave won't heat but hums loudly? The diode regulates power to the magnetron. Test with multimeter—reads one direction only. Moderate DIY repair.
Replacing a magnetron in my particular 9-year-old microwave (a microwave/hood combination) was not a simple “plug & play” operation. That is why I am placing this in the slightly difficult area. First, it takes 2 people to remove the microwave from the top of the stove. Next the main outer panel need to be removed. After that, 2 sheet metal panels need to be removed in order to expose the high voltage components for testing. Always discharge the high voltage capacitor first before doing... Read more

This small spring is part of the door interlock system in your microwave, providing tension to the safety switch mechanism that detects whether the door is properly closed. It ensures the microwave will only operate when the door is securely latched. Replace this spring if the microwave does not start, runs with the door open, or the door interlock switch is not engaging correctly.
Checked switch with a voltmeter, determined the switch was bad. Ordered a new switch....watched a short how to you-tube video.....and from there.....it was fixed. Read more
This door interlock switch is a safety micro switch that detects whether the microwave door is properly closed before allowing the unit to operate. It is a small, snap-action switch mounted near the door latch mechanism. Replace this switch if the microwave won't start, runs with the door open, or blows a fuse when the door is closed.
It is difficult (if not impossible) to remove the electronic switches from the hard plastic latches. I replaced all three switches and both the upper and lower latches I also replaced the main 20 amp ceramic fuse which blew out when the latch/switches failed. Read more
Microwave turntable won't rotate or makes rattling noise? This motor drives the glass tray for even heating. Easy 10-minute DIY fix with basic tools.
Obtained the replacement motor and tray coupler from Appliance Parts Pro. Video of the typical replacement was very helpful to show what to expect and how to replace the motor and coupler. The removal of the bottom plate was held in place by several phillips screws. The motor was attached with two torx screws. The electric connection clips to the motor required needle nose pliers to pull them off. The tray coupler was simple to install after the motor was secured and bottom plate was replaced.. Read more

This is a light lens cover that fits over the surface light bulb housing on the underside of an over-the-range microwave. It protects the light bulb and diffuses light onto the cooktop below. Replace this cover if it is cracked, yellowed, missing, or if it no longer snaps securely into place.
When the new bulb didn't want to go in, I felt around and realized the base of the old bulb was still in there. With some effort I got it out and new bulb in, Light cover fit fine, but did not come with a screw to hold it in. That would have been helpful. Read more
Includes brackets, screws, and fasteners for secure microwave installation. Replace missing, lost, or incomplete hardware from floor models or clearance units.
I was given a very nice microwave, but when it came time to install I was missing a couple screws and the grill was broken. I went online and located the missing or broken parts. I ordered them and was shocked when two days later it was on my porch. This was no doubt the fastest and best ordering experience I've ever had. Read more

Microwave runs but won't heat food? A failed magnetron is the likely cause. This high-voltage tube generates microwave energy for cooking. DIY repair.
I researched the problem. Found the solution online and ordered parts from AppliancePartsPros.com. It only took a screwdriver to make the repair. The only confusion I had is my model of microwave had a double diode, and the one sent to me (by model number) was a single diode. I wasn't sure what to do, either install the new single one or put the old double unit in. I went with the new single diode, and it works fine. I don't know why the two differences, but it all worked out. Read more

The grill vent is only held in place by two screws. Super simple fix. Remove the two screws and the old grill vent, position the new vent and put the two screws back in. Replacing the cord required that cabinet to be removed. Lots of screws on the back, top and bottom. Once the screws were removed, the cabinet pulled back. The power cord connections were then clearly visible. Undid the two wire connectors and unscrewed the ground wire from the body to remove the old power cable. Installed the... Read more
