Using an inverted laundry basket; slide the microwave unit out approx. 14-16 inches and balance the extended weight on the inverted laundry basket. I opened the oven door and placed the laundry basket on it.....was a good fit! 7. With the side sheet metal now exposed; remove four hex nut screws (black) from unit. 8. Also, swing front control panel open; notice two sheetmetal tabs securing side panel. bend each up to help release side panel. 9. NOTE: The sheet metal enclosure is a shield for the microwave unit. It interlocks around the side cover preventing accidental removal. 10. By removing the four hex screws, you will notice two philips screws toward the rear of the unit. Remove both of these screws and the side panel should come out exposing the magnatron. 11. Uplug the magnatron and light. The light is in a white plastic cover and the magnetron is the main device in the unit. There was a schematic in my unit that helps illustrate each of the locations. 12. NOTE: There are capacitors toward the lower rear of the unit that will remain charged although power is off. Safely dscharge these capacitors or don't service this unit on your own. 13. Remove the magnatron by removing the four philips screws attaching it to the side enclosure. 14. Remove the plastic cover encasing the light by removing three philips screws. 15. NOTE: The replacement magnetron does not include the thermal sensor secured to its case. You must remove this from the old unit or buy a new one. There are two small philips screws securing this in place. 16. Reverse order to install new units. 17. NOTE: there is a gasket on the magnetron (around the hole where the rotating head projects into the cooking chamber. Ensure gasket is properly installed to prevent microwave leakage. 18. Once everything is reinstalled; place glass of water in unit to test. Set controls properly and turn on. Water should be hot per setting.

Microwave isn't heating. We changed out the diode, but still no heat. What do we need to replace next.
For model number JKP86SH6SS

What are the parts for the magnetron and transformer? Is it hard/dangerous to discharge the magnetron?
For model number PT970SR2SS
Hello John,
Thanks for your question. The part number of the magnetron is PS239660, and the transformer is PS245475. These parts can carry electrical charges even when the microwave is unplugged and so we recommend having a licensed technician install the parts. The link for discharging the magnetron capacitor is below:

I hope this helps.
Manufactured april, 1997. Does not heat but everything else works ecept the turntable. Think it is the magnatron and/or transformer that has finally bit the dust. Do you know of a reliable repair person in the 85375 zip code that can install the correct part? Can i order the parts from you prior to the repair??
For model number JE1540WW002
Hello Bob, Thank you for the question. Very sorry but we do not have a list of repair men, I suggest contacting the manufacture of the appliance directly. Customers have ordered the parts from us prior to the repair. Hope this helps, good luck with this repair!
