This OEM glass cooking tray is a removable glass plate, measuring 13 inches in diameter, that spins inside the microwave during operation. It ensures that heat is evenly distributed in the microwave to properly heat or cook the food. Over time, the heat generated in the microwave can cause the glass to warp and the plastic rollers to wear...Read more down. The glass can also crack or shatter accidentally. It is important to replace the glass as soon as it is no longer functioning well to prevent uneven heating and reduce any safety hazards from damaged glass. Carefully pull the old glass cooking tray from the microwave and clean the microwave cavity. Place the new tray onto the rotating mechanism, and properly align it with the rollers. Turn the microwave on and check to see that the tray is rotating freely.

The door switch, often referred to as a primary interlock switch, provides power to the various components in the microwave when the door is in a closed position, and interrupts power when the door is open. This door switch is approximately 1 1/2 inches long, and has 2 metal prongs called terminals that extend from its body. Common sympto...Read morems related to a faulty primary door switch include: microwave will not turn/shut off, or the microwave will not heat properly. You can check the switch for continuity using a multi-meter. With the actuator button depressed, you should see continuity between these terminals. If there is no continuity the switch will need to be replaced. NOTE: Before you begin this repair, first make sure your microwave is unplugged, and that your capacitor is discharged. A capacitor stores large amounts of electricity even when your microwave is unplugged.

Usually found kitchen appliances, this OEM-certified diode cable assembly helps to convert power from the transformer to the magnetron, to heat up your food.

Disconnect the cable assembly from the transformer and the magnetron with pliers. Reinstalling a new cable assembly requires you to reverse the previous steps. Please keep in mind that this cable assembly is sold individually.

Store the electrical energy needed by a microwaves high-voltage heating system with this replacement capacitor. During cooking, the capacitor works with the transformer, diode, and magnetron to help create the energy that heats food. A faulty capacitor may be linked to no heat, loud buzzing, or a fuse that blows when cooking begins. Howev...Read moreer, these signs can also come from other high-voltage components, so proper testing is important. Microwave capacitors may hold a deadly electrical charge even after the power cord is unplugged. For this reason, testing and installation must be completed by a qualified appliance service technician.
