All Installation Instructions for Maytag Microwave MMV5207BAB

Microwave stopped working - would not heat up

I removed the outer cover and exposed the inner workings. I watched a video on partselect.com to show how to remove and replace the Diode. I followed the instructions and it was very easy to replace.

Unfortunately, the diode was only part of the issue. I ended up replacing the High Voltage capacitor and Magnetron also. Those were a little more complicated but still easy to do.

Now the Microwave works just like new! Cost me less than $100 for all parts.

High-Voltage Diode

Broken door handle

after searching the internet for a replacement handle,all I could find was,I found I had to order a door for the price of $250. I decided to search some more. I was totally surprised when I discovered that not only did Parts Select have a handle only but it was in stock too for the price of @40.00. The handle was the exact replacement. It was a pleasure doing business with a company that did not try to rip you off. you have a customer for life. Tony Chernauskas

Had to replace charcoal filter.

Part arrived on March 15. When I went to install it on March 16 I found that it was the wrong size. On the same day I emailed PartSelect of the problem. They responded via email the same day and advised that the correct filter had be located and was being shipped. In addition, a separate e-mail had shipping instructions and an address label. On March 18 the part was returned and presently I am awaiting the replacement part. Todate I am well pleased with PartSelect's responsiveness and handling of the matter.

Microwave Vent Hood Filters

Not so sure this would qualify as "instructions", but I only needed a screwdriver because the "D" rings of the old vent filters broke off and I had to pry to old ones out. Keep in mind, I am mechanically disadvantaged and can barely change an A/C filter ... that being said, all I did for this order was input my Model number and PartSelect found the correct replacement part. I receive the parts super quick (faster than the other 2 purchases I did that day). The only bummer was the packaging ... super huge box for small tiny parts. Otherwise, I now know where to go for replacement parts. This project should be a "no-brainer" for most DYI's, so getting the right parts with just a model number was lifesaving for me :0)
