RVM1435WH001 Hotpoint Microwave - Instructions

Unplugged microwave before doing anything.Removed 6 screws holding the bottom of the microwave on. Disconnected 1 wire connector connecting the light sockets.Removed 1 screw on each socket to remove and install new socket. Reconnect the 1 wire connector and reinstall the 6 screws holding the bottom of the microwave on. Removed 1 screw holding the glass lens in place on each light and installed 1 bulb in each and reinstall 1 screw in each lens. Replug power cord. DONE !!

I simply removed the screws from the underside of the microwave, letting it hang down. I removed the motor by unplugging it, exchanged it with the new motor, reconnected the bottom screws....presto, fixed!

Very easy fix. Undo 5 screws underneath, and the bottom floorplate rotates down on the rear hinge, exposing the turntable motor. Undo 1 screw on the motor, and unplug the two prong harness. Replace with new motor. Whole process took about 7 minutes. Anyone can easily do this repair. Don't forget to unplug the microwave before replacing motor!

Very simple procedure, unplugged the unit, removed five screws and unplugged the drive motor and removed two screws holding the motor. Replaced the two drive motor screws and reconnedted the drive motor then replaced the other five screws and reconnected the unit. Very simple and straight forward.

bought a fuse but that didn't solve the problem. Guess I need a new microwave

It was a snap using the instructions given. The key is getting into the unit. I did have to use a multimeter to find the failed switch since there are two of that type.

Easy access to the motor via a bottom panel. first time access requires you to snip the door free with wire cutters to remove access panel. remove access panel and remove the screw that mounts the motor to the chassis. unplug the motor and install new motor in reverse order. re install the cover plate you removed via inserting the tabs on door into the slots on the chassis and install the hold down screw that came with the cover and you are FINISHED!! VERY QUICK, AND PAINLESS REPAIR. UNIT IS UP AND RUNNING AGAIN.

undid plate exposing bulbs. Bulbs were blown to the extent that I could not see the size or wattage. Went to website, got the data ... including how to find the model and serial number plate, entered the info, looked at the exploded drawing, ordered 2 new bulbs and 3 days later they showed up at our door FedEX.

the replacement was as easy as pudshing it onto the shaft...

Disconnected power cord to the microwave. Checked with inductive voltage detector to ensure power was OFF. Removed 5 screws from cover on bottom of microwave and let the cover hang down. Removed wire connectors from exiisting motor. Removed one (1) screw holding the motor in place. Reattached the wires; reinserted one screw. Screwed the bottom cover in place. Plugged the appliance back in to power, and checked for proper operation.

found plastic internal motor/gear drive parts stripped. Simple replacement got it going again! Piece of cake!

Simply unscrew the bottom panel of the microwave device (it swings downward when opening - there are hinges on the back to protect it from falling down). Remove the old light socket (which is modular and is screwed in place)from the connectors and then replace it with the new light socket. That's it

Very simple disconnect light socket unit from snap in power supply replace socket with bulb screwed in reattach & back in business. Your service in supplying needed parts was par excellence. Thanks again

Checked the make and model number of unit, went on line and it was quite easy to find the replacement part and order it. The part fit exactly as the original and I didn't need to replace the entire microwave.
