MH1160XSQ0 Whirlpool Microwave - Instructions

Put into place, tightened the screws.

Washed the glass tray and put in the microwave oven. Easy..

Rep knew exactly what I needed when I described where the part should go on my microwave - price great - shipping great - installed in seconds. Thank you!

Husband replaced the bulb

Opened the door. Removed the top vent cover. Removed the torx head fastener located at the top left of the door above the hinge. Removed door. Cleaned the unit vents and chassis. Installed new door. Re-installed the top vent cover.

Spouse just screwed in the new bulb and reinstalled the light cover plate with the two screws. Took under a minute. Works great.

I ordered another one and placed it inside the microwave. It works and fits perfectly. I received the order exactly as scheduled.

Removed turntable
Place support ring in track
Place turntable on support ring.
Easy, peasy!

The grease filters you sent to me are not the same size as the filters I replaced!!! Since the new filters do not fit correctly the air does not get filtered since the filters are too small for the hole. Why would you send me replacements that are not the same size as the ones I replaced? The filters are in the hole of the original ones but are too short. Not happy with this transaction at all!!!

On top front of the microwave are two Philip's head screws holding the rail on. Remove these screws and the rail snap out the old filter (noting the dark side down) then snapping the new filter in. Replace rail. 10 to 15 minute task.

easy to replace, just the same as cleaning the turntable and placing back in the micorwave;

Looked up the Whirlpool Co. and ordered the part. It was quite simple. Arrived in 2 days and I simply placed it in the microware. It was very very easy!

The repair tool less than 5 minutes. The repair part fit perfectly. The new part looks and performs just like the original.

After removing the over-the-range unit (no small feat!) I had to figure out how to open the case (good puzzle!). Capacitor had already discharged, so it was very easy to reach in, pop the old fuse and install the new one! As per your advice, I found out I was a "28%-er"! Upon re-installation, the microwave "sprang to life"!! Thanks, "Part Select"!! I was already shopping around for a new machine! (Now if you could only tell me an easier way to re-mount this heavy beast over the stove!!!)

Unplug the microwave. Then remove the six screws that hold the lower panel which has the light bulb cover and a couple of vent filters. The light bulb sockets are on a fixture that is connected by a quick connect electrical connector. Disconnect that and the whole panel is free to access the bulbs. My bulbs were very fragile and trying to twist them out resulted in the glass twisitng loose with the base still in the sockets. I needed to use a needle nose pliers to remove the bases and then I replaced the bulbs and put every thing back together
