RMC305PVT00 Whirlpool Microwave Oven Combo - Instructions

Cordless drill removed 2 screws replaced element and 2 screws
Done. Didn't use new bracket

EASY. FOLLOWED THE YOUTUBE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE WEBSITE.

Hired a professional installer who completed the installation, after he left used the microwave once, and 2 hours later glass shattered again. This was very frustrating and costly.

The tech said he used No 2 Phillip's. Once I took the door off and removed the racks I quickly learned a Phillips was not going to work. I am now the proud owner of a Kobslt star and square ratchet screwdriver.

I looked up the problem and determined I needed to replace the limit switch which is inside the back panel. As a 78 year old woman who isn't afraid to tackle these problems I found this easier than most. Just be sure to disconnect the electrical connection if you don't have long enough length to pull oven from the wall cabinet. I won't put any sheet pans in the oven next time I self clean it.

1) Removed the trim pieces (2 screws). 2) removed the 2 screws holding the oven in the wall. 3) Slid the oven out of the wall cabinet 4) removed the back panel of the oven ( 10 screws. 5.) removed the old thermostat (2 nuts) 6.). Installed the new thermostat and reversed steps 4-1

Removed locking device

no repair needed - ordered part, came within 3 days - very satisfied

Removed the small metal panel covering the main power terminal in back of the electric range. Removed the nuts holding the red, white and black electrical wires from the range using the appropriate socket (there will be two nuts on each bolt end). Removed the two screws holding the main power terminal block with appropriate screw driver. Connect the new main power terminal block to the range using the two screws. Reconnect the red, black and white electrical wires coming from the range using one nut for each wire. IMPORTANT: do no over tighten the nuts because the bolts could snap. Reconnect the pigtail and secure the small metal panel covering the main power panel.

Read the instructions in installation manual to remove door. Kept removing screws. Was surprised to find two panes of glass between the inner glass and the outer glass. Cleaned all the glass (4) and the inside of the door. Looks brand new. Be careful with the insulation; be sure it is pushed back or it will show from the outside.

I removed the Oven door, unscrew 10 screws, open up the dor case, clean all glass levels, replace inner glass, reassembled the door, reinstalled the door to the appliance.

found the part no. and ordered it. it was delivered fast and efficient.
tracking was also helpful.
