Whirlpool 8184604 Cover - Inlet OEM Part

Pried the old cover off. It was like a piece of particle board glued to the roof of the microwave and connected via plastic inserts. Cleaned the surface area of the microwave with the light sandpaper and cloth that was provided with the repair kit. Applied glue to the new cover and attached it with the push connectors to the holes in the inside roof of the unit. Let it sit over night and everything works fine.

Pried off the old damaged magnetron cover (wife had a little fire in there) and siliconed the new one on. The little plastic rivits hold it in place. Let dry for about 12 hrs. Microwave back in action with no lightning bolts now.

Ordered an inlet cover replacement kit. It arrived in less than 24 hours and the repair took no longer than 5 minutes.
