YKHMS1850SB2 KitchenAid Microwave - Instructions

took it to Buttermore appliance in Auburn Indiana and he changed the fan and added another fuse

Part was easy to order on a secure site. The filter will make a difference as our appliance is not externally vented.
Good people to deal with.

Open compartment, installed bulb, closed compartment

Took the front off and behind a plate was the fuse, so I replaced it for what good that did!!!

The repair was easy, I just took off a few screws and found the broken latch spring. The real story is how easy it was to find the replacement spring from Partselect! I couldn't believe they had it, and even better yet, I ordered it one afternoon, and it came the next day with normal shipping! Unbelievable! Then I just popped it in and replaced the covers I had removed and it was working again!

I just opened the box and set it in. Took all of two minutes.

Easy, perfect

The part was shipped quite fast. I received it after 3 days of my order. Installing the part was a breeze. Took about 5 minutes. The part was as described and looked identical to the original one.

Took the replacement plate out of the box and put it in the microwave in seconds. I never realized how much of a difference having the correct microwave plate would make. It's great to have it back.

Problem was easily diagnosed using the internet as a resource, problem was a bad stirrer motor. Hardest part of the repair was the removal of the microwave. Once off the wall, you remove the outer cover and a molded plastic casing directly underneath the outer cover at the top of hte microwave to expose the stirrer motor. Removed two screws and two wires and the old motor is out. Did exactly the opposite to install the new motor. The kit I recvd included among other things the motor, a new inside cover, plastic rivets and even silicone to seal the inside cover. I am sure I saved a couple hundred dollars by doing myself.

You had alerted that it was imperative to unplug unit before starting to remove defective bulb. As described, there was silicon on bulb and socket and bulb broke upon my attempt to remove. Had to use needle nose pliers to get metal base of old bulb from socket, then all went well.

Used the new parts, they were a perfect match, I completed the work in 5 mins or less. The pictures provided were very helpful, and parts were delivered very fast. Price was the lowest too!!

Removed the glass cover and replaced the bulb. Very simple.

Replaced--tightened. Work involved--tighten two screws. The diagrams provided by your site were excellent. Delivery time was faster than expected. Don't usually bother with endorsements. But good job--keep up the good service--its appreciated--when something works the way it is supposed to.

I took off the glass panel underneath the microwave and replaced the 2 bulbs in less than 3 minutes by myself with only a phillips head screwdriver. I was very pleased with the service I received and more pleased with myself that I did not have to call in a repair man.
