Glass Cooking Tray
★★★★★
★★★★★
(15)
Part #1B71961H
This OEM glass cooking tray is a removable glass plate, measuring 13 inches in diameter, that spins inside the microwave during operation. It ensures that heat is evenly distributed in the microwave to properly heat or cook the food. Over time, the heat generated in the microwave can cause the glass to warp and the plastic rollers to wear down. The glass can also crack or shatter accidentally. It is important to replace the glass as soon as it is no longer functioning well to prevent uneven heating and reduce any safety hazards from damaged glass. Carefully pull the old glass cooking tray from the microwave and clean the microwave cavity. Place the new tray onto the rotating mechanism, and properly align it with the rollers. Turn the microwave on and check to see that the tray is rotating freely.

Ron - For model number 72185039111
October 7, 2022
Turn table don’t rotate and microwave does not heat !
Chris Boyle Profile
Hello Ron, thank you for reaching out. According to our research on model number 72185039111, the problem appears to be with the micro switch, part number PS3598699, and/or the turntable motor coupler, part number PS3522918. A faulty microswitch prevents the microwave from starting. The turntable motor coupler connects the turntable motor to the tray, if faulty the turntable will not rotate. Customer service is always available to help you place an order if you are having trouble doing so. Good luck with your repair!

Broken door micro switch. (unit does not start heating)
37 of 68 people found this instruction helpful.
  • JAMES from BILLINGS, MT
  • Very Easy
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Screw drivers
Unplug the unit before servicing. Need phillips screwdriver. Open door. Use step ladder to access and remove 2 small screws from top of the room air diffuser at top of unit. Slide diffuser slightly to the left to align the diffuser's plastic tab on the left side to rotate toward you. (The wires for the front control panel are at the far l eft side of this difuser, but difuser is slotted for easy removal). Once the difuser is removed you will see 1 screw at the top that secures the pannel cover on the left side of the unit. Remove screw and slide this panel slightly up and out. This exposes the plastic frame that holds the upper and lower door switches. To locate the door switches and observe how they work, close and open the door and watch the door (bayonets) open and close the micro switches. Do the (red) buttons on top of the switches move up and down when the door bayonets push and release? If the buttons do not "pop" up when opened the switch is defective. The switch frame is secured with 2 screws. Remove screws and rotate the unit out for easy access to the micro switch(s). The internal (spring?) on my unit that is suposed to allow the red (visible) button on top of the switch to "pop" up when the door is opened was broken. Carefully pry the switch outward while being careful to lift the plastic holder-piece that holds the switch in place. Be careful, there is a small pin on the frame, so rotate the switch OUT toward you while lifting (carefully) the plastic holder-piece (you will see it on top of the switch). You can use an ohm meter to test the continuity of the switches. But if the buttons don't "pop" they are defective. Replace switch and reassemble.

Vent Grille tabs snapped off
18 of 27 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Andy from PERRYSBURG, OH
  • Really Easy
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Screw drivers
Repair was easy but you have to remove the screw at the top of the microwave (top left) in order to secure the far left tab with the hole in the tab. Place the grille in place, push to the left and then secure the screw you removed. Just remember that the mounted screw will need to be removed the next time you need access in order to repl ace the charcoal filter.

The fan cover in top of the cooking area was burned.
13 of 18 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Mike from PINEY FLATS, TN
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Pliers
The original cover was burned and actually caught on fire. Research informed me that food can splatter and stick to the cover. The particle will get hot enough to ignite the plastic cover. I ordered the cover and included the fan since it was so cheap, Replacement was super easy. Done in 10 minutes and made my wife happy. She was ready to buy a new microwave because she thought something was wrong with ours but food splatter was the cause. Parts were less than $10 + $6 shipping. Keep the inside of the microwave clean!!
