This OEM waveguide cover in your microwave is a heat-resistant component that prevents food, grease, and moisture from entering the waveguide. It is typically located on the side or top wall of the cooking chamber. If the cover is broken, you may notice cracks, charring, or burns, and potentially see arcing or sparks during operation. Not replacing a damaged cover can lead to short circuits and the risk of electrical components touching your food. To remove the cover, start by disconnecting the microwave from its power source before opening its door. The waveguide cover is slotted or snapped into place, so gently slide or apply pressure to release it from the clips or slots. Please note that the cover is sold individually.

Thin silver piece of cardboard to deflect microwaves...
It must work because brand new microwave wasn’t working until we replaced it.

Cover needs replacing
You have to be very careful because the wave guide cover is very brittle. It needs to be bent very gently in order to fit the four ends into each slot. I would highly recommend buying two just in case the first one breaks.

replaced cover
I thought the cover was suppose to come off from the inside of microwave. It is brand new and got bent. So I ordered a new one in case it was not working with a bend in it.
