All Installation Instructions for Frigidaire Microwave Oven Combo GLEB30M9ESC

My wife reported that she saw flames coming up the inner wall of the microwave oven.

I noticed that the scorched and slightly melted plastic was above a little piece of what looked like cardboard, so I did a Google search for "flames in microwave" or something similar and found a link to a DIY repair site that mentioned a tear in the waveguide cover causing that problem. I ordered a replacement from PartSelect, received it in near-new condition, and replaced the old one with the new one in 5 seconds. I then called PartSelect to let them know that the new part had a couple of "wrinkles" in it that I was concerned might cause a problem down the line but that it seemed to be working OK for now. The nice person in customer service told me that I could use the part for the full year of the warranty and return it if a problem arose. I'm very satisfied with the experience!

really bad ugly streaks inside of glass

open door,throw the door latches at the hinges and remove door. Take the out of the outer panel so you can separate the glasses. remove clip that hold the outer glass in place. I ordered a replacement glass as I never thought that it would come clean it looked so bad, but it cleaned up like new so I now have a spare glass for my oven door. Just reverse the way you take it apart to put it back together.

inner glass door was broken

removed the door from the range. removed the 4 layers of glass and carefully set aside the unbroken ones. the 3rd and 4th glasses were held together with a metal frame which had to be dismantled. The old broken glass was rusted and hard to get out of the frame. It had to be cleaned thoroughly of broken glass and rust. the removal process could then be reversed to assemble the parts and re assemble the door to the front of the range

microwave was sparking

Easy fix for my microwave. The cover just slips out, no tools needed.The best part about this fix was dealing with PartSelect. I recieved my part in less than 3 days but it was damaged. PartSelect overnighted a repacement and I am back in business.
