KHMS155LBL0 KitchenAid Microwave - Instructions

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.

Taking the door apart was easy once you figured out how it came apart. Youtube videos were not helpful as every brand of microwave is different; what works for one does not work for another. My Kitchenaide has little interior hooks on the inside of the door, 8 on top, 8 on bottom, 4 on the hinge side. You have to pry the door-skin up to get teh hook disengaged, then get a putty knife or similar to keep the hooks from re-engaging. Once you have about 6 or 7 undone, the door starts to come apart. Eventually the exterior of the door comes off; the interior of the door remains hinged. After that, you'll figure it out...

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!

Simply placed new dish on the rotating hub.

I just looked at the broken one to see where it broke and looked at the microwave. I realized that there were two screws that were supposed to hold the vent grill along with 3 slots on the bottom. I inserted the slots on the bottom into the preset spaces for them, lined up the top with the two screws and screwed them into place. Checked to make sure the screws were not too tight and that was it. New vent grill in place and ready to go.

Removed cover (lots of screws), Removed base, Removed inside covers to epose transformer, HV diode, capacitor and Magnetron. Removed HV transformer and labeled wires. Removed door switch. Removed Magnetron and replaced. Re-installed door switch and HV transformer. Connected wires and re-installed internal covers. Installed base and tested unit. Installed cover and re-installed Microwave. Has been running a week just fine. Take a lot of pictures with your phone during the whole process. This will help with getting things back exactly as factory.

I called the repair/parts number to make sure I had correct parts and the young lady instructed me as to the size of the serving tray; within 48 hours we had the VERY carefully wrapped carton opened and back in the microwave, working perfectly. Thank you. We'll recommend you to our friends!

Slid them out and slid them in. Best part - ordered them at Noon on the Friday after the 4th of July and they arrived at 12:10 the next day - standard shipping.

Ordered new vent part. Just set in place and fastened screws. These parts do not last because the plastic does deteriorate.
