There was a minor explosion in my microwave that shattered the ceramic shelf that forms the bottom of the inside of the microwave.
Called parts select and discussed the situation and they identified the correct replacement shelf. When I received it, I just pushed it into place (the edges of the shelf are coated with a rubber seal) and it is there. The unit looks like new. It was great to be able to find a part for an appliance from 1988!

Broken microwave handle
Having a broken microwave door handle was driving me crazy! I never realized how often I opened/used the microwave. I ordered the part on a Sat. and had the replacement by Mon. - now that's service! My husband fixed the handle in a matter of minutes and the microwave is as good as new!

Thanks!

Range light bulbs were burned out
We needed a phillips head screw driver to remove the single screw holding the light bulb cover in place.
Removing the old bulbs was a little work, because they had come loose from the sockets. We unplugged the microwave, so we could grip the sockets with a tool. I think my husband used a needle nose plier for this.
The new bulbs screwed in easily, and then we refastened the light bulb cover with the phillips head screw driver.

No power to any microwave functions
Access is via RT. SIDE Panel as you face microwave. There are three screws on the bottom right edge to loosen. After that the side panel slips down and off. the fuse is located in the rear near where the power cord comes in. It is the white ceramic tube 1/4" in dia. and 1-1/2" long. Pull it out like any fuse and replace with new one. Reassemble and you are done!

Ceramic Fuse - 20 amp

Would not start
Watched a you tube video prior to installing new switch. Followed the video which gave me confidence i was up to the task. After removing the touch pad I found my design was not exactly like the you tube model but I found the defective switch, replaced it and put the microwave back together. Works great. Again watch the videos

Handle to our microwave cracked and became loose.
After using glue to repair it and living with it re-cracking for a year. I simply went on line and bought a new handle. The replacement handle arrived in two days. I removed two screws, took off broken handle and screwed in new handle and done.
The diagram of the components on the web site was easy to read and selection of the replacement handle was easy.

Microwave handle broke
Before I ordered the part I took the handle off and super glued it. That lasted for about 2 weeks.

Removed 2 screws and replaced the handle.

Part arrived in only 2 days.

Great service, good price
