Would not start
Watched a you tube video prior to installing new switch. Followed the video which gave me confidence i was up to the task. After removing the touch pad I found my design was not exactly like the you tube model but I found the defective switch, replaced it and put the microwave back together. Works great. Again watch the videos
Exterior light bulb (PS2376034) broken off in socket. No access for pliers after glass cover removed.
Unplug appliance. Remove total of 7 phillips screws from sides and front of bottom panel . Panel front drops down, remove one socket screw and socket. Now have access for lineman' s pliers to unscrew bulb base. Reinstall socket, replace bulb and 7 panel screws. Restore power.
Unplug the microwave. Then remove the six screws that hold the lower panel which has the light bulb cover and a couple of vent filters. The light bulb sockets are on a fixture that is connected by a quick connect electrical connector. Disconnect that and the whole panel is free to access the bulbs. My bulbs were very fragile and trying to twist them out resulted in the glass twisitng loose with the base still in the sockets. I needed to use a needle nose pliers to remove the bases and then I replaced the bulbs and put every thing back together
The part as supplied is a generic for several models. The clip end is bigger than the slot and will not fit as shipped.
The clip end is @ 1"; the slot is @ 1/2". There are two raised pieces on the clip each @ 1/4" in. I used a metal snip to cut the oter 1/4" off each end-this allows the clip to be inserted into the slot and hold.
Philips screwdriver Removed screw (1) Removed light bulb Put in new light bulb Closed door to bulb compartment Returned screw.
Pro tip! Check how many bulbs you need before ordering. Mine only needed two. I got two. I suspect I’ll buy a new microwave before new bulb burns out again. Ordering/delivery was fast. No need to have spare on hand.
The Microwave Turn Table Broke While Popping Butter Pop Corn
It was not the magnitude of the repair but the fact I ordered the part on a thursday and it was delivered on saturday. Timing ws very important, especially this time of year.
I was able to find the part on line and within a few days received the part and installed it with no problems thanks to the website drawing information.
