EMO3000HWW02 General Electric Microwave - Instructions

I followed the directions posted by others - they were perfect. This was a very easy process. The screws on the motor were hard to take off because they were put on at the factory with equipment is my guess. But the process was very easy. The turn table is working. I still have the noise but now realize that is from the magntron fan, which I am not going to replace given the age of the microwave. At least my food is heated evenly with the table turning and I can live with the noise until I see the price I want to pay for a replacement microwave. Thanks all!!!

Found blowup drawings inside unit, which helped identify what I had to remove. Had neighbor assist in lifting unit from wall mount, unit slides easily from rails once top bolts are removed. Pay attention to where all the screws go as you remove them, some inside assemblies will have to be removed or loosened. A good guideline to go by is all black screws hold internal assemblies, the bronze screws go in the back side and the chrome screws go on top, sides, and front of the unit. I was able to lift unit back on rails without any assistance.

Removed microwave bottom cover ....removed motor....replaced...parts fit perfectly...your-company is the best...service, price & support!

removed access panal, found soft switch as discribed on your web site. removed and replaced.

Unplug the microwave power cord. Remove the turntable and drive coupler. Remove 5 screws and the bottom hinges down. Unplug the motor power line, remove one screw holding the motor. Reverse the procedure for installation of the motor. Reset the time and date on the microwave display. The replacement motor from PartSelect showed up within 3 days of placing the order. Thanks for the fast service PS.

Removed the bottom plate screws from the microwave. Disconnect the wire harness. Replacement of the light sockets is easy. The female terminal connectors that connected to the bulb sockets were corroded, so I had to go to the hardware store and get replacements for those also. Replacement of those was unexpected but straightforward.

1) I unplugged the microwave. 2)I removed 5 screws which allowed the bottom of the microwave to open. 3)I unplugged the drive motor. 4) I removed 2 screws holding the bad motor and removed the motor. 5) I installed the new motor with the same 2 screws and completed the replacement by doing steps 3,2,1. I reset the clock after testing. Easy-Peasy. My mother was thrilled. She was using it that way for about a year because she thought a repair person would charge too much.

Opened the bottom panel of the microwave, removed one screw from the motor, rotated motor aprox 1/8th turn and pulled it down, Pulled off wires and then reversed the operation. Was easy and works great. I was really surprised how fast the new part was sent.

unplug microvave,remove 5 screws from bottom of microvave. Motor is in the center. unplug remover remove last screw. replace motor plug motor back in and reverse steps. so easy!

PartSelect had helpful repair instructions on-line which made the repair easier and faster. Unfortunately, there were other problems with the oven that immediately blew the new fuse I had just installed. It was then determined that additional repair would most likely cost almost as much as a new microwave.

I'm in the 1% it wasn't the motor. There's a small amount of voltage going to the motor

Remove light cover. Replace bulbs Note. Light bulbs are 40W,Too much heat for bulbs & sockets

Diconnected power to microwave.Removed screws from under microwave. 6 plus center screw. removed 2 screws at drive motor and power source to drive. replaced same in reverse. piece of cake.

Took screw holding lens cover out, dropped cover down, unscrewed old bulb, screwed new bulb in socket. Screwed cover back in place. This is the third bulb in this socket, the other bulb is original.

Others said just push new coupler into hole where broken one was. This does not work. You have to take the underside of the micro to access the motor that drives the coupler. There is a screw holding the motor in. Take out screw and twist the motor to release it from holding slot. Then put coupler in hole and reattach motor. You may have to twist the motor to seat the coupler. Twist motor to replace in slot and then attach screw to hold motor in. Reattach under side. Fairly simple. Do not force the coupler into the hole without taking motor off first.
