LMV1813SB (CBKELGA) LG Microwave - Instructions

Read the troubleshooting section on this site. Figured it was an interlock problem because the food was not getting hot (magentron not turning on) and the carousel was not turning. Did not think both the carousel motor and magnetron failed at same time, thus indicated an interlock problem. The interlock switches are actuated by the door latch. Replaced the assembly locker piece with all three switches (only a $20 dollar part) and microwave was fully operational again. Wife and kids think I am a hero.

It didn't work. It was too large. I need a glass tray NO LARGER than 13 1/2''. I received a 14" that was suppose to be comparable to the 13 1/2" glass tray that broke. The 14" is too large and wobbles. IF you have one that will fix my LG over the stove microwave Model # LMH 2016ST I would love to give it a try.

Unplug the microwave. Remove the Philips head and safety Torx head screws along the bottom of the sides and rear of the microwave which hold the black cover on. Lift the cover up at the rear and slide it backwards to disengage the tabs on the front top. Remove the cover. Discharge the capacitor by shorting the terminals to each other and then ground. Do this with a well insulated object and be aware there may be a pop when you do this. Keep hands, etc. on the insulated part of the object (screwdriver handle, etc). There's a lot of stored energy in that capacitor. I'd advise first checking the diode to make sure its not bad. Replace it if it is. The Magnatron is held in with a couple of screws on the top and sides. Unplug the connector and remove the screws. Remove the Magnatron. Installation is the reverse of removal.

Self

After checking all three switches for continuity I determined that the plastic door lever had warped or gone out of wack. After shutting off power at the breaker box I removed the door, the inside trim piece around the inside of the glass. Removed the black two prong door lever, reattached the new door lever and then reinstalled the trim piece and all screws. Works fine now. Easy fix just make sure your switches are all ok then replace the door lever.

Just snapped out the old one and snapped in the new one

Both new parts were installed simply by snapping them into the holes used by the old covers. What I did need was the single round headed push pin used to hold each cover in place after they were snapped into their respective mounting holes but, none were supplied with the new covers. Luckily, I was able to secure the old pins from the damaged parts that I had held onto and used them to secure the new covers. New pins should have been supplied with the new covers.

Unplugged the microwave. I opened the door. I used a butter knife to pop the bezel off the inside of the door. I pushed the locker up and to the left and used the butter knife to pry it loose. Disconnected the locker from the spring, and reversed for the installation.

I received the part and my son put it in where it belonged and no problems

unscrewed the bottom of the microwave and unplugged old part then took the screw out and put new one in. Super easy!

Wanted to see the instructions before I install it.

You Tube

purchased a new one...thank you

I looked for the part on partselect website. The picture of the door assembly showed that i could not order the glass alone. As per the picture the glass was part of tge outer panel. I ordered the part and requested expedited shipment. But when I received the part, it did not have the glass in it. It was just the plastic frame. I felt cheated. When I called partselect, the said they could do nothing about it and asked me look for the part else where. I just lost $30. My recommendation is to never order parts from partselect.

Removed the phillips screws from the base.

Using a # 10 secure driver, remove the motor. (I recommend obtaining a secure star driver set to be sure you have the right size)

Replace the spacer, which is a separate part from the motor.

Reinstall the spacer and motor.

Reinstall the bottom panel.

Enjoy!
