Rec'd the parts within a day or two after ordering and simply placed them where the old ones were removed and wala my stove is back filtering. Only problem, the oven won't ignite while the broiler and stove top burners are fine. Go figure.

It was a snap using the instructions given. The key is getting into the unit. I did have to use a multimeter to find the failed switch since there are two of that type.

Door film was damaged by contact with tin foil
  • Theodore from Lutz, FL
  • Really Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
Remove old film by peeling away from glass. Lift from corner and pull to remove. Remove backing from new film slowly as you are applying to the door a little at a time. Smooth with a plastic spatular as you apply from one side of the door to the other and you will have no wrinkles or air pockets.

Watched How to repair a Microwave that turns on when the door is opened Video on the web. From this took a shot at the switch was the problem. When I removed the switch it was defective. The small button was in and when you turned the switch upside down the button would drop back into position. Ordered a switch for $25.oo , installed it and the microwave is working fine.

Microwave fan would run when opening the door. Evenutally the mircowave would not run, but the electrical panel was still working
  • Julie from Elm Grove, WI
  • Really Easy
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Screw drivers
Opened the microwave oven door, unscrewed two screws which held the control panel on, then I removed two of the door switches (each had two screws), and then used the continuity tester to see which one was not operating. It turned out to be the secondary door switch, replaced it and to my amazement, the microwave worked. I have never r epaired an appliance before but I didn't want to replace our over-the-stove built in microwave. It was the best day ever when it was working again! The hardest part was getting myself to try the repair.
