JVM1350WWC01 General Electric Microwave - Instructions

There were only two screws holding the door handle in place. The first is obvious but the second requires that you snap off the plastic window cover on the door. I only took it partially off using a butter knife to lift it. It snaps out easily.
Take out both screws which removes all parts of the old handle. Then just put in the new handle and use old screws to secure it in place. Except for removing the plastic cover, this was absolutely trivial.
$60 seems expensive for a plastic door handle, but it is cheaper than a new unit.

1 - Open the microwave door and locate the plastic gasket that goes all around the inside of the door (just around the glass)
2 - Using a slotted screwdriver, remove the plastic gasket. This will expose the bottom screw.
3 - Remove the top and bottom screws of the handle
4 - Attach the new handle and put the plastic gasket back in place
5 - Enjoy the rest of your day!

The repair is simple. There was only one screw remaining to hold the handle and the screw is visible from the inside of the door. The second screw can be accessed by removing a piece of trim that goes around the inside of the glass. Remove that trim by carefully twisting the trim and sliding a thin knife into the inner edge. Once you see the first of the small clips the rest is easy.

Only complaint is that the microwave is only 10 years old and the part has two small extrusions for the screw. The price of the replacement is excessively high for what it is.

Removed a rubber seal on the inside of the door. Removed the two screws holding the old handle. Put the new handle on and screwed it in. Took less than 5 minutes.

Removed difuser (one screw), removed old bulb, screwed in new bulb, replaced difuser.

I read the instructions posted by others. Removed the visible screw from the inside of the door at the top, pulled the door gasket covering exposing the bottom screw. I reattached the new handle. Viola. Thank you.

3rd handle replaced,(glued first two together), and used an electric screw driver to put screws in tight this time. And you think that FORD has a better idea. Jeffery has a great idea... make it to break and get rid of repairmen. $65.00 for the part and shipping is way more than its worth...especially if they keep breaking.

Had already reverse engineered the door and it's parts so when the repair parts got here I already knew how the parts fit together. Took me 15 minutes max without instructions.

Slip a flat bladed screwdriver under the gasket near the bottom screw and lift it out far enough to reach the screw with a phillips screwdriver. Top screw is exposed and comes out easily. Tighten both screws, push the gasket back in and you are finished. 5 min tops.

Tyring to get bulb out i ruined the light socket. Unscrewed the bottom cover of microware. Took out screw holding light socket, removed wires to socket with pliers, intsalled new socket. It was a piece of cake and the part was a perfect match.

I loosened the screw that held the top of the handle onto the door of the microwave, and also removed the gasket on the inside of the door, exposing the bottom screw holding the lower end of the handle to the door. I removed the old handle parts and placed the new handle in the proper location, and then screwed the handle into place. I replaced the gasket, and I was done!
It was painless.

pluged wires back on ,placed lamp holder and bulb back and replaced screws

Removed one screw, installed new lense in lense frame, rescrewed. Done.

Replaced glass in frame and replaced lights

Simple. The parts came instantly. The glass was too big so I had it cut to size. I unscrewed the fixture with a screw driver replaced the bulb and slipped the glass cover into the frame and screwed the whole assembly in.
