Removed the screws holding base of microwave. Removed two screws from driver motor after disconnecting the wiring from the motor. removed turntable plate to gain access to the shaft of motor and place plastic part on stem of motor. Fastened two screws back in the new motor. Installed screws in base of microwave. Done

My son installed the handle. He said he could do the next one in 15 min. This one took 45 min.

I watched the video on how to replace the motor and it was as simple as you said it would be. Just need the correct short handle screwdriver. It is very simple and easy. Thanks for the video.

Took the light socket out and replaced it.

Replaced light socket and bulb. Real easy repair.

Removed the bottom cover of the microwave and replaced drive motor.

I removed the bottom plate of the microwave, unscrewed and unplugged the motor, screwed in and plugged up the new motor. VOILA, DONE! $40 is lot better than $350 for a new microwave. Thanks PartSelect.com.

my wife removed the bottom screws and replaced the motor.works normal now

My son had to replace the bulbs because the screw that holds the bulb shield was so tight that I couldn't remove it. It was too difficult for me to do it myself.

sent off for new part and replaced it. I`ve done several of these in the past in my shop ,so it was no problem .worked on other equipment also over the years in my job 1 to 10 about a 2 .

Located the correct part on PartSelect. PartSelect had the correct diagram. Replacement of motor was easy to do. All I had to do was remove the bottom panel to access the drive motor. This is a wonderful service.

Disconnected the power at the circuit breaker. Removed the six phillips head screws on the underside of the microwave base. Unplugged the drive motor. Removed two phillips head screws holding motor in place. Put all the screws aside keeping the motor screws separate so they would not get confused with the cover screws, they are slightly differenet sizes. To put the new motor in I needed to rotate the triangle plate drive inside the microwave main compartment until the motor could seat in place. Seccured the motor with the screws. Put base back in place and secured with screws. Turned power back on and tested turntable by turning on microwave.

Had to take the MW off the wall, remove the cover, and find the magnetron. Issue was the HV-capacitor. Had to remove the diode and capacitor to discharge the capacitor safely. Crackle-Bang! Then put it back before toying with the HV-transformer in order to get the magnetron out. Took a little under two hours to get it back on the wall and a lot of cajones when monkeying around the chassis removing the capacitor. Not a job for most everyone as this was a potentially high-shock repair due to the voltage and micro-farads held in that capacitor. Hardest part was getting the magnetron to drop out past the HV-transformer. Also, the thermostat had to be removed from the magnetron and re attached to the new one. Fiddly delicate job, not for the clumsy or faint of heart.
