MH1141XMQ0 Whirlpool Microwave - Instructions

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.

Arrived in 24hours!!! Great.

Removed the two philips screws installed new grill and replaced the screws.

Just be sure to push both sides of the grille into place and screws were easy to tighten. The filter is not difficult at all. Made me proud to repair it myself (73 yoa)

Twas really easy considering that all I had to do was place the plate back in the microwave. Easy Peasey

Tray arrived in a short period of time and was a perfect match.

Removed 2 screws that were holding broken plastic tabs. Lined up lower plastic tabs on new grille into slots, gently. Tipped forward to engage upper tabs into slots. You need to "gently" press the top into place to avoid breaking off the tabs! Replace 2 screws, and hand tighten with Phillips screwdriver. Easier to see what you're doing with the microwave door "open". I felt "accomplished" for a 70-year old Grandma.:)

removed perimeter screws from the bottom side and the lower cover is hinged at the wall side. Motor is visible and easily removed with two screws. Take of the old one, install the new one, and reverse the procedure to put the bottom cover back in place. Will nee helper to hold one side of the bottom until couple of screws can be put in on the other side.

(1) Pulled the door open (2) removed three screws on the right side of the door edge. (3) Removed old outer door panel and glass. (4) Removed two screws holding old handle to old door panel. (5) Attached new door handle to new door panel with old screws. (6) Aligned left side of new door panel on the hinge side of door so that top and bottom hinge plates fit inside door panel. (7) Squeezed right side of door panel until inner door was completely covered by door panel. (8) Screwed three recovered screws into side of door panel into inner door. (9) Closed door and reopened it several times to test repair.

Wedged grill into open space and screwed in with existing screws

Not so sure this would qualify as "instructions", but I only needed a screwdriver because the "D" rings of the old vent filters broke off and I had to pry to old ones out. Keep in mind, I am mechanically disadvantaged and can barely change an A/C filter ... that being said, all I did for this order was input my Model number and PartSelect found the correct replacement part. I receive the parts super quick (faster than the other 2 purchases I did that day). The only bummer was the packaging ... super huge box for small tiny parts. Otherwise, I now know where to go for replacement parts. This project should be a "no-brainer" for most DYI's, so getting the right parts with just a model number was lifesaving for me :0)
