Grease Filters!!!!!!
The grease filters you sent to me are not the same size as the filters I replaced!!! Since the new filters do not fit correctly the air does not get filtered since the filters are too small for the hole. Why would you send me replacements that are not the same size as the ones I replaced? The filters are in the hole of the original ones but are too short. Not happy with this transaction at all!!!

Replacement of hood light bulbs
Unplug the microwave. Then remove the six screws that hold the lower panel which has the light bulb cover and a couple of vent filters. The light bulb sockets are on a fixture that is connected by a quick connect electrical connector. Disconnect that and the whole panel is free to access the bulbs. My bulbs were very fragile and trying to twist them out resulted in the glass twisitng loose with the base still in the sockets. I needed to use a needle nose pliers to remove the bases and then I replaced the bulbs and put every thing back together
