72163292300 Kenmore Microwave - Instructions

We had made this determination with the help of a repairman on the phone. I ordered the part and waited for it. It was stuck in West Virginia. After several days after it was expected a repairman fixed my range to the tune of $168. It should have cost $30 (the cost of the part and shipping).
Unfortunately I probably won't order from PartSelect again.

Ordered the switches from Partselect, arrive in two days. Had trouble removing the plastic connectors from the old switch terminals, one of the plastic protectors broke, but was able to reuse it. It took a little figuring out how to remove the existing switches. Must push in a tab and rotate the switch on a little pin, then remove. Must be careful not to break the plastic tabs holding the switches in place. Replaced all (3) switches at the same time. All in all it was pretty easy.

Put on safety glasses AND leather work gloves. Grab pliers. FIRMLY grasp the110 A/C power cord with jaws of pliers, squeeze and pull plug from 3prong power socket. Carefully press black bar on front panel to open oven door. Stand back so door doesn't strike your face . Lift out damaged glass tray with BOTH gloved hands..place in re-cycle bin. Open parts package carefully and install the NEW glass tray. Plug 3prong plug BACK into 110v outlet and press start button........Stand back! View the new glass tray turning in a circular fashion through the heat/radiation proof front door. Job well done!

saved me having to buy a new microwave. It was super fast delivery, had the part the next day! Amazing service and great customer support.

brought new one and the help with the sites pictures to describe what I need was extremely helpful. The prompt delivery was great.

Lifted up the glass plate, lifted out the plastic base that rotates and placed the new one inside. The piece that connects is shaped like a semi-circle, so I rotated it until is dropped into place. Then I put back the glass plate and it was finished.
