MW858 Microwave - Instructions

Screwed in light bulb and glass protector

My husband took the plastic cover off and took out old bulb and screwed in the new one. Then put the cover back on.

I pulled down the wire around the glass cover. . . Released on end of the wire from its holder being careful to not let the glass cover drop. Unscrewed the bulb and replaced with replacement. Easy, easy.

My repair went terrible as I was sent the wrong motor 2 times. My stove sat in the middle of my small kitchen for 2 weeks. Finally the 3rd was the correct one except I didn't have the right nut so I waited another day for that to be sent. Everything working good now, I just hope the bottom fan doesn't go out after this experience.

Received the part the day after ordering. Appreciated the quick service and repair took less than a minute.

Disconnected power and removed Microwave housing cover, observed burned end plastic connector of wire connecting to the thermostat (or thermal overload sensor); slightly wiggle one of the 2 wires to the thermostat would cause microwave power to cut out (when plugged in power). When powered on, I would try to run it but power cuts out aft ... Read more er just a few seconds. Removed the 2 wires from the old thermostat, removed the 2 screws that fasten down the thermostat, replaced with new thermostat and reapplied the 2 screws; cut off burned part of wire and resolder to new wire connector; reconnect both wires to new thermostat and reinstall MW housing cover. MW works good as new again. Thank you PartSelect!

Pretty easy tear down and assembly once I removed it from cabinet (built in micro)

Remove the housing cover which requires removing 7 screws that hold the cover on. The bulb and the pully's that the belt goes on are visible and the belt is easy to replace as is the bulb.
