Parts for Lg MVH1670ST / CSBEGSE: Section 5 Parts

A Tap-Tite binding-head screw used to fasten appliance panels and components where a self-tapping metal thread is required. Replaces missing or damaged fasteners to restore secure assembly and reduce vibration or rattling. What it does:

• Creates its own mating thread in thin sheet metal for a secure hold without a nut.
• Holds panels, brackets, and trim in place to prevent looseness or movement.
• Commonly used where stripped, missing, or broken screws cause rattling, misalignment, or parts that won't stay attached.
• Compatible with standard screwdrivers or nut drivers sized to the binding-head.

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before working on it.
• Use the correct driver bit to avoid cam-out or head damage.
• Start straight and apply steady pressure; avoid overtightening to prevent stripping the formed threads.
• If the original hole is badly damaged, assess for repair or use of a larger fastener as needed.

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.

Color: brown. Measures about 10 inches in diameter.

This turntable motor drives your microwave's glass tray, rotating food for more even heating. Replacing a failing motor restores proper tray movement and helps reduce cold spots during cooking. What it does:

• Rotates the glass tray via the turntable coupler during cook cycles
• Helps promote even heating by keeping food moving
• Addresses symptoms such as the tray not turning, intermittent rotation, or grinding/clicking noises from beneath the cavity
• Useful check: ensure the roller ring and coupler aren't damaged or obstructed

• 1 turntable motor

• Disconnect power; microwaves contain high-voltage components that can retain a charge
• Typically accessed from the unit's bottom panel; remove the cover to reach the motor
• Move the two wires and mounting screws from the old motor to the new one; align the shaft with the coupler
• After reassembly, confirm the tray sits correctly on the roller ring and spins freely

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 drawing capacitor is an OEM component for LG countertop microwaves. It is an integrated electric part that stores and releases power allowing the main control board to communicate smoothly with high-load cooking components like the magnetron tube and turntable motor.

Symptoms of a bad drawing capacitor include: 

• Microwave failing to power on or start cooking presets  
• Components like the turntable or magnetron not engaging
• Unusual crackling or burning smells from internal circuits
• Control panel displaying error codes for capacitive malfunctions

Causes can be normal component fatigue or manufacturing defects after extended use.

This OEM LG part can also be used on Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

The Magnetron is an OEM part for LG microwaves. As the primary cooking mechanism, it generates microwave energy to heat and cook foods quickly.

Causes can be from normal wear and tear over years of use. Damage may also occur if the microwave interior is exposed to moisture, spills or debris.

Symptoms of a faulty magnetron include:

• Slow or ineffective cooking
• Hot or cold spots in cooked foods
• Buzzing or humming noises emanating from inside the microwave

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore 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.
