The Microwave Door Switch is an OEM replacement part for LG countertop microwaves. It monitors the door position electrically to prevent unsafe oven operation if ajar. 

Symptoms of a bad door switch include:

• Inability to start or pause a cooking cycle unless securely latched  
• Error messages about the door being open
• Inconsistent detection of open/closed door positions
• Unreliable contact functioning after extended use

Causes involve normal wear of electrical contacts and internals through many open/close uses. Exposure to moisture intrusion from spills may potentially damage sensitive switch circuitry over time as well.

This genuine LG replacement switch is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore microwaves.

The Damper Bracket is an OEM component for LG microwaves. Located inside the microwave cavity above the wave stirrer, this bracket holds the position of the damper assembly that helps distribute heat evenly during cooking. The bracket measures approximately 12” by 5”.

Symptoms of a bad damper bracket can include:  

• Hot or cold spots developing within the microwave cavity
• Looseness in the damper assembly fit
• Reduced heat circulation leading to uneven cooking

Causes typically consist of cracking over long-term heat exposure. Repeated opening/closing of the damper may also weaken attachment points on the bracket.

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

The Damper is an OEM component for LG microwaves. Located within the cooking cavity, it regulates airflow and safely vents steam escaping heated foods. 

Causes of a faulty damper can involve standard wear and exposure accepting steam and condensation release. Food or liquid particles drying within tracks also threaten eventual adhesion issues restricting travel if left unaddressed between cleanings.

Symptoms of a damaged or defective damper include:

• Inability to adequately vent excess moisture from heating  
• Potential messes spilling beyond the microwave frame  
• Grating sounds or squeaks emitting during cooking
• Flaps possibly stuck inhibiting steam circulation 

This damper is also compatible with Kenmore microwaves as well.

The Light Bulb is an OEM part for LG microwaves. It provides illumination inside the microwave oven, allowing users to monitor the cooking process and check the condition of the food without opening the door.

Causes of a bad light bulb can include normal wear and tear, electrical surges, or damage due to impact or overheating. Over time, the filament inside the bulb can burn out, or the bulb itself can become loose or disconnected.

Symptoms of a bad light bulb include:

• The microwave interior light not turning on
• Flickering or dimming of the light
• Intermittent lighting during operation

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

The Door Latch Spring is a genuine OEM part for LG microwaves. As a key component of the microwave, the door latch spring is responsible for providing the tension needed to securely close and latch the microwave door. It works behind the scenes to ensure a tight seal when the door is shut.

Symptoms of a bad door latch spring include:

• The microwave door not closing or latching properly 
• Gaps appearing around the door seal when shut
• Difficulty opening and closing the door

Causes of a bad door latch spring can include wear and tear over time. Exposure to excessive door slamming can also place undue stress on the spring.

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

The LG microwave glass tray is an OEM replacement part for LG countertop microwaves. Located inside the microwave cavity, the glass tray provides a flat, durable surface for cooking and heating food items. The tray measures about 13 inches in diameter.

Causes of a bad glass tray can include cracks or chips from impact damage, prolonged exposure to high heat levels, or chemical etching from acidic food spills.

Symptoms of a bad glass tray microwave include:

• Cracks, chips, or breaks in the glass compromising structural integrity
• Difficulty removing or placing the tray due to a poor sliding fit  
• Food particles or liquids seeping below the tray and needing cleaning
• Visibility issues looking inside the microwave cavity  

This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore countertop microwave models.

The Diode is an OEM replacement part for LG countertop microwave models. Located internally on circuit boards regulating magnetron function, it precisely controls the electric current flow.

Causes of a bad diode involve thermal fatigue over time putting repetitive stress on sensitive semiconductor junctions. Microwave demands may accelerate failures.

Symptoms include:

• Intermittent cooking or complete failure to energize the tube
• Error codes appearing on the control panel display
• Buzzing or humming noises emitting from internal circuitry

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

The Turntable Coupler is an OEM part for LG microwaves. This coupler connects the motor to the turntable, enabling the rotation of the glass tray during the cooking process. 

Causes of a bad turntable coupler can include wear and tear from regular use, cracks or breaks due to the weight of heavy dishes, or damage from accidental impact. 

Symptoms of a bad turntable coupler include:

• The glass tray not rotating during operation
• Uneven heating or cooking of food
• Unusual noises from the turntable area
• Visible damage or wear on the coupler

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

The Thermostat is an OEM part for LG microwaves. This part monitors and regulates the temperature within the appliance. The thermostat ensures that the microwave does not overheat, automatically shutting off the power if the internal temperature exceeds safe levels. This preventive measure helps to avoid damage to the microwave and potential safety hazards in the kitchen. 

Causes of a bad thermostat can range from normal wear and tear, which may cause the component to lose its calibration over time, to overheating incidents that permanently damage its sensitivity.

Symptoms of a bad Microwave Thermostat include:

• The microwave unexpectedly turning off during use
• The microwave failing to start
• Inconsistent cooking temperatures or unevenly cooked food

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

This rivet assembly fastens panels, brackets, or covers inside the microwave cabinet. Replacing a damaged or missing fastener restores a tight fit, reduces vibration noise, and keeps mounted components properly aligned.
