Ordered a new motor. Removed the outside trim of the oven-microwave combo. 2 screws at the bottom of the trim. Removed the screws that held the combination micro and oven unit in place. Removed the top and bottom black plastic grill of the microwave. 3 screws each. Pulled the entire unit out about 1 inch exposing the screws at each side of the microwave that hold it in place.
Snapped off the top control panel which exposed the wiring connecting the control panel.
Unplugged a couple of wire harness units to free the control panel.
Be sure to label the units to know which goes where during reassembly.
Remove the microwave unit from the housing and place it on its side.
Remove the metal plate that houses the motor. 4 screws hold the motor in place. Disconnect the 2 wires from the old motor and you are ready to install the new motor. Be sure to TURN OFF THE POWER to the unit at the breaker box and remove the turntable from inside the microwave.

Simple repair. Remove 6 screws to remove old grill and replace with the new grill using the old screws.

First, we had to clean up all the interior surfaces, which was just cleaning. There was no internal damage. Then, just setting the center connector, rotary rollers and glass plate. Simple

the new part fit just right. put in place and screwed in with existing screws. like a glove.

Bought a new one. Perfect match, easy replacement.

used screw driver to pry up old part. lifted right off. line up drive couple drive push on. repair took less than 1 minute to repair. works like new
Very Pleased with Parts Select replacement parts

Took 4 Screw on top off...set bottom in first into slots ..pushed top in under the top of outside cover ...put Scews back in.

Didn't realize this part had two tabs with reinforced screwholes in it. Those obviously had snapped off at some time in the distant past, and I had always removed the grille for cleaning carefully and washed it by hand and replaced it. The clean freak moved in and took this out WEEKLY and all the other tabs were eventually cracked and made the grille unusable; it kept rattling and falling out. When I got the replacement I noticed the broken tabs and replaced the item in a few minutes after removing the debris of five or six tabs and finding a Philips head screwdriver for the apparent screws (in fine shape, they were!) and tab remnants. Good fit, looks like new. Now hopefully the clean freak won't find my screwdriver next week.

Whirlpool Model# MH1150XMS-0 purchased in 2004. I called Whirlpool and they suggested a new microwave. No big surprise - being the thrifty person that I am I wasn’t taking this for an answer. I figured if I had to purchase a new microwave what was $35.22 (part# PS373828 + shipping) if it worked.

I replaced the latch on the microwave door. Once the latch was replaced. I also took this time to make sure that the microwave door was in alignment. Thereafter, I had to adjust the door interlock switch behind the microwave console panel to recognize the microwave being closed. Yes, gaining access to all these areas was a bit difficult but have patience. TADA!!!....microwave is working. #girlsrock

Removed bed two screw replace grill

Unscrewed 4 different screws, replaced the vent & returned screws. Ack to original positions

replaced the socket per recommendations on this web site. this did not correct the problem.

Slipped in and screwed top on

It took me 15 minutes total - 5 minutes to clean the microwave, 1 minute to install three new parts, and 9 minutes to enjoy my celebratory glass of wine!
