GH5184XPQ2 Whirlpool Microwave - Instructions

the burn thru was probably because stirrer motor was not turning, Unplug the microwave .freed the motor up bu manually turning. temporary fix. The cover is held up with small push pin clips. Just pry the cover off with a screw driver or other flat tool. Scrape offf the old silicone. There are two covers in the Kit. you just need 1. Remove the old clips for the roof of the microwave, put a bead of silicone on the new cover where the old was and secure the new cover with the push pins into the clips .

I used a Google search to show how to access the area behind the front panel. There was a folded paper copy with a schematic and wiring diagram in that space.Then I used a multi-meter to determine which of the THREE micro-switches was causing the problem. I called your help line and ordered a replacement switch. The switch was delayed in transit so your agent credited me with the cost of shipping.

When the part arrived, it had three terminals instead of two as shown in the on-line picture but that did not cause any difficulty in using it. It took about 20 minutes to remove and replace the old switch.

All seems to be working well now.

Finding which of the THREE switches was the problem was the most difficult part of the repair. All three "clicked" but the defective one did not click as easily. It needed to be depressed more than the door latch can would provide. Old age?

It was a bit awkward because the microwave is mounted over my stove. I had to twist around and install the bulb and then replace the cover. It was a bit uncomfortable. It took me about 10 minutes to complete.

Remove the microwave from its mount above the stove. Remove the sheet metal top/sides piece. Pop the control panel loose to allow access from the front. Remove more screws that will allow the small inverter to be removed and the big inverter housing to be wrangled loose enough to remove the big inverter. Pop the inverter cooling fan from its mount. Disconnect wires and remove screws to remove big inverter. Install new inverter in reverse process.

The grill cover to my above range microwave had been damaged by the original installers. It was still in good enogh condition to work until recently when it got pulled on while cleaning. I had no idea what the part was called, so when this web-page had pictures, I still found it easily. The part arrived within days!!! It was the wrong color. but when I called, the lady was super nice and the new part arrived in days. Even with the mistake it took less than a week!!!! I couldn't have been happier. And now it's better than when I got bought the house new!!!

Installation was literally a snap! Took no time at all and our micro looks like new. Ordering and delivery was fast and efficient. I will definitely shop here again.

It was very easy, no tools needed. I simply snapped the new part into the self aligning grooves.

Piece of cake. One screw to release the dropdown light diffuser. Just remember, the you're screwing the new bulb in from a reverse perspective. Also this site sends the correct part the first time.

the part pressed fit right in in less than a few minutes

I removed old vent and replced with new vent. Process took under 1 minute.

It took me longer to get the part out of the box. clips were included, I'm completely happy!

Easy install ... just removed a couple of screws and had pry the plastic cover and trim around door. i did break a couple of clips but it did not affect the door when reassembled. Youtube it

Put s pot under were you take the screw out.If you drop it you can get it easy

Unpacked the vent grille and walked to the microwave. Lifted grille up to the vacant space. Applied a small amount of pressure while pushing the grille into place. Walked to the refrigerator to fetch part one of an Egg Nog beverage, then to the cupboard for the best part of the Egg Nog beverage. Stirred ingredients and continued with decorating the Christmas tree. Voila!

Simply remove two screws with a crosstip screwdriver securing the vent louvers from top of microwave, remove the old charcoal filter and replace new filter as describe in the owners manual. Very easy installation and partselect parts are very inexpensive and durable to other sites.
