KHMS145JWH0 KitchenAid Microwave - Instructions

The repair went without a hitch following the instructions provided. I could not be more pkeased.

Watched video which reminded me to order support for the turntable support ring and did exactly what the person in the video did. Excellent and prompt service and all parts fit.

After researching online, I found that I needed the turntable drive coupling, part#PS993087. when I went to your site it showed the same part but the part number had changed but said it would fit my microwave. Well, I was really surprised and happy when the part I received 3 days after I placed the order, with normal shipping,fit perfectly and now my turn table in my microwave works. I have marked this site a a favorite and will use it I'm sure soon. Being a single women and having to figure out how to fix the things on a small buget, I'm learning a lot and have a lot of respect for men that know how to do all the repair stuff. Thanks so much, I have been able to mark this off my list of things to fix. Have a nice day. Cj- age, 58

This rental unit was missing the vent grille for the mounted microwave. It was super simple to install and makes the microwave look like new.

Unscrewed the lens cover anbd inserted the new bulb. Put the cover back on and there was light!

Some difficulty getting screw loosened, once that was done replaced burned out bulb.

Looked at the original instruction manual to see how it was installed, removed the two Phillips screws, fitted the grille into position until correct, then replaced the two screws.

Others had suggested using a putty knife to "gently" remove the outer door panel. I found my narrow blade putty knife was not sturdy enough. After several attempts I finally switched to a wide blade putty knife and blade screwdriver. This did the trick. Outer door panel came away and after that it was relatively easy repair. I was really impressed by the wwll protected packaging used for shipping the new panel to me.

Removed door, removed panel, replaced panel, reinstalled door.

Ordered the part on PartSelect on Sunday afternoon. The part arrived on Tuesday evening. I followed the instructions on the reviews on the PartSelect site. 1. I took out the three (3) screws on the right side of the damaged panel. 2. I placed the screws in a bowl so not to lose them. 3. I pried the damaged front panel off with butter knife (it was a little harder to get off than expected). 4. I cleaned the glass. 5. I replaced the glass in the mounts on the new front panel. 6. I snapped the front panel into place and reinserted the screws. Boom. Done. I threw away the damaged front panel. I don't think it was recyclable.

Super easy! Just unscrewed remainder of the vent grille, saving the old screws as instructed on other reviews I read, and replaced vent grille with perfectly fitting new one...whole process took 15 min (while 9 months pregnant with a toddler hanging on my leg!) And partselect sent the piece with regular shipping in 2 days!

After removing the three screws from the outside edge of the door , use a flat blade screwdriver and you fingers to pry the base of the front plastic panel off the door. The cover is held in place with molded in plastic clips . If you are just trying to swap the handle, I'd suggest you buy a new plastic door panel as it's tough to remove without risking it cracking (sorry it is quite expensive...but MUCH cheaper than a new appliance). Once removed, the glass outer window has to be removed by gently prying back the plastic clips that hold the internal bezel that hold it in place. You'll have to take the screws out of the old handle and re-use them . I backed up my screws with penny washers to spread the force applied to the plastic panel...probably the cause of the cracking in the first place. On reassembling (the reversed of taking it to bit) make sure the glass is clean on the inside (no fingerprints) before you snap everything back together. I gave it a "bit difficult" because if you don't act with finesse, you'll crack bits that you don't want to crack!

My husband open the microwave and see the capacitor melted. He try to find the piece in store,but unfortunatly he didn't find any. I found the piece on the web and ordered it. My husband replaced the part easily. The microwave work very well.The microwave was to our friend. He did replace it by a new one. Now we have a new microwave with a fan.
