SMH1816S (XAA-0000) Samsung Microwave - Instructions

I used my pocket knife to open the package. I opened the door and removed the plate and set the guide down and put the glass plate back.

We did not use the part, the spring fell off inside the door. We kept the part just in case

Use knife to peel back molding around latch openings. Pull down on plastic latch part, pull out bottom and tilt up to remove broken part from spring. Tilt top of new part inward and connect tab to spring. Push in bottom of latch and snap. Replace the molding by pushing all around the door frame.

After removing the door from the OTR microwave, we slid out the old latch, slid in the new, & reattached the spring. Replaced the door & DONE.

Used a putty knife to take off the edging inside the door to have access to the latch. Put the new part in and attached the spring. Replaced the edging and job was complete.

Got part from you in one day - great- watched utube video on removing molding and reinstalling. Video was longer than time to fix all need to do was remove molding and install the door latch - it is made of plastic with a hook on which to attach spring. Hook breaks and therefore door does not close

Called Maytag regarding the latch. Was told I had to order an entire new door that would cost around $170 before shipping and handling. Went on partselect and foundt he part for $2.02. Big difference in price. Very easy to install. Hardest part was getting the spring back on. Would definitely recommend to friends.

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.

My daughter was trying to run the microwave timer and ended up nuking the cooking tray, which shattered. First web place I found wanted 55$ for this tray and this site sold it for 19.99. It shipped super quickly. I am very pleased with this company!
