turntable stopped working--- unsuccessful so far with the repair
removed screws from the bottom cover, installed the new motor and reinstalled the cover. The turntable is still not working. wonder if the power supply for that motor is not working. I noticed the internal microwave light glow and then burn out at about the same time as the turn table stopped working. Could that power supply provide power to both the motor and the internal light? can't find the schematics for the location of the power supply so i can test for output power.

Terminal block arc'ed because a wire had become loose.
Ordered and received the terminal block. Installed it along with a new 220V power cord and the appropriate insulator . Ensured the terminals were tight with a nut driver. Reinstalled cover. Then, using the control panel, I did a function check on all the heating elements, clock, oven light, to satisfy all operational requirements. All checked good! And, I was relieved that the control panel had not been shorted out as the terminal block was due to a loose connection. Easy fix.

Microwave worked intermittently
The door was not engaging the micro switches properly no doubt from 10+ years of wear. The upper switch removed fairly easily but take care not to tweak the plastic brace too much or it will snap. The lower one was the tricky one. After much examination I noticed that the trick to remove it was underneath the brace. Take a butter knife (no joke) and insert it just under the old micro switch and gently press down twisting the micro switch every so slightly til it releases. The replacements snap back in with no trouble. The microwave is working much better now, though not perfect.

Motor quit working but light and timer still worked.
Since others reported similar problems and it was just the fuse we tried that first. That wasn't the problem so we ordered the Door Interlock Switch Kit. Shipping was very fast! Our microwave had 3 switches. My husband asked how to know which one to switch. I read that one person just did process of elimination. Luckily ours worked on the first change out! So happy to have stumbled across this site and not have to buy a whole new microwave.

motor would start by itself when door closed
remove 4 screws from top, front louvered panel snaps out. remove 1 screw from top of keypad, keypad pivot's forward and can be removed. There is a white mounting bracket inside left. Remove two screws, one top and one bottom, bracket lifts up and out. 3 sets wires are attached, mark them with masking tape, top, center, bottom and pull out plugs. They can only attach one way. Using a very small screw tip, lift plastic latch from switch, it rotates out and is removed from the pivot pin. reassemble in reverse order after switches are replaced

microwave would not heat.
hardest part was taking the microwave down off of the wall to gain access to the diode. Thought if was the transformer but ended up being just a blown diode. remove and replace and bench test. that part took 15 minutes . moral of the story don't boil water under the side of the microwave that holds the electric components.

I didn't have a recessed drive or bit
We got a a carbon steel but and drilled out the stews and put in regular screws. We also had trouble getting the cover back on and ended putting 2 more screws on the left side which had none. The installation was the easiest part of the installation.

Broken glass window
Opened oven door, placed 1 small bolt lengthwise between each hinge and hinge opening so that the hinges won't snap back when the door is removed. I know the hinges have two small locking tabs, one on each side, but they didn't seem to be doing the job. Remove the door, lay it on a flat surface about table top high and make sure something oft like a couple of towels or piece of foam, remove the 6 screws from the bottom and top of the door, the outer front of the door will then separate from the assembly. Take the rear assembly of the door and remove one of the two silver metal strips which holds the glass in place. Now at this point you would install the glass and replace the metal strip but what I did because I could not buy into the fact this glass did not have some type of temperature resistant insulation to prevent vibrations from cracking this glass again. After thinking about it a few minutes I remembered that back in the day they had these muffler/tailpipe repair kits which cost less than 5 bucks so I went out and bought one.I took the silver tape that comes in the kit, cut it the length of both sides of the glass and folded it over so that it would overlap about a eight of an inch on front/back of glass. I then took the temperature resistant cloth from the it and did the same as I did with the tape. Placed the glass down in the middle of the door and tightened both metal holders, replaced the front of the door, and then placed the door back onto the oven,pushed the two little tabs back in place, and used a pair of needle nose pliers to remove the two bolts and closed the door. Ya know when I look at what I typed here, I noticed that it took longer to type this then it did to do the work. AMEN

I had a power serge and it burned the Plug at the termial block and melted a few wire.
After we got the part in the mail my husband put it on and shortened the wires and put new plugs on the ends of the wires and we had to get a new plug put it on and it was fixed.
