66569642992 Kenmore Microwave - Instructions

It was real easy. Took out four screws and put new unit on with the four original screws.

I really did not have a repair on the microwave just a replacement of the browning pan

Opened door and put new plate in.

Placed order on Thursday evening and received Sat Am

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

Very Pleased with Parts Select replacement parts

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.

I followed the excellent instructions on the Partselect website.
I removed 4 screws and the frame popped out, I cleaned the glass and reassembled. I was surprised how easy.
Thanks for your help.

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

I was sent the wrong fuse by you. I had to procure a fuse in another manner. Very disappointing. The repair was simple. It just took longer because of the failure to send the correct fuse.

I just put the new ones in place…They were the right size, therefore no tools or extra effort!

Ordered the glass tray and installed it. Received the orderin about two days.

After removing the over-the-range unit (no small feat!) I had to figure out how to open the case (good puzzle!). Capacitor had already discharged, so it was very easy to reach in, pop the old fuse and install the new one! As per your advice, I found out I was a "28%-er"! Upon re-installation, the microwave "sprang to life"!! Thanks, "Part Select"!! I was already shopping around for a new machine! (Now if you could only tell me an easier way to re-mount this heavy beast over the stove!!!)
