Had to remove outer cover (special screws involved). Found the correct part at PartSelect.Com and it arrived 3 days later as promissed.
This oven has diffcult electrical connections at switch to get disconnected. I found it easier with the sw loose and in hand so that the connectors can be released with a small screwdriver.
One has to this in order to test the part wirh an ohm meter. I found the sw did not close but remained open and thus caused the oven not to function.
Removing interconnect switch is tricky but not difficult.
Outer cover replacement is not as easy as it should be, especially the sides.
All is well and working.
Microwaves are simple devices if you are know how to read and understand schemetic diagrams.
This was probably the easist repair ever. Turns out the shaft of rotating ring assembly that fits over the turntable motor was cracked, so the motor was unable to enage the ring assembly to move it around.
1. lift off (remove) the round glass tray
2. remove the old rotating ring assembly. There was a cracked plastic piece of it still on the motor shaft that I removed with a pair of pliers.
3. slide on the new rotating ring assembly - be careful of the orientation.
One small Phillips screwdriver and one fuse puller (I used cord). Unplug unit. Remove the two screws on the vent face plate. Remove the one screw on the panel assembly. Gently let hang. Pull the fuse located on the upper left wall. Replace fuse. Reassemble.
Microwave does not have power at all, though outlet has power
unplugged power cable / unhooked front vent / unscrew the monitor panel / slide up to dislodge / take the fuse out and put in the new one in / fuse is located right in front of monitor panel once its open might be covered by wirings / you can unpin the cables from the panel to make it easier for you just make sure to put it back properly or you can have somebody hold the panel for you. Installing the fuse is easy waiting for the parts is crazy......
First remove all screws holding on outer metal casing of microwave. Next remove the back and bottom metal pieces. You will then be able to pull aside the outer casing so you can access the door switches. Check each switch with an ohm meter in both the open position and with the switch closed. If the ohm meter reads the same in both the open and closed position, the switch is bad. Check the top switch first. Replace switch and reassemble. Cheap fix for a costly microwave. Great customer service at Parts Select!
Removed the back plate, removed the old motor and re-attached the new motor and the back plate. Took about 5 minutes. Works great. Lesson learned - DON'T let your spagetti boil over.
Followed the instructions on your website and a YouTube video. The diode was at a 90 degree angle which made it a little trickier. Unfortunately the repair did not resolve the problem. I ended up buying a new microwave for temporary use for less than ordering any more parts. We are pleased with your website, instructions, ease of installation though!
Pretty simple but required buying a set of security bits (#68549) from Harbor Freight for $7.00 to remove the outer cover of my GE JES2051SNSS microwave. At first glance I thought the cover would remove by going towards the front of the microwave, but it ended up just needing a tug to the rear. I like this site because they have pictures of the exploded appliances that show what your getting into.
The most important part was to determine why the microwave not coming on. I had to check from start forward to determine where it was losing the current. after determined that the thermostat was not passing the current, that was it. After I received the part, I replaced the part and everything started working again.
The carousel stopped rotating on my microwave oven because the plastic assembly that rotated underneath the platter had split at the point where it fit on to the rotating shaft underneath the floor of the microwave. I ordered a new plastic assembly and popped it on to the shaft. Problem solved in less than a minute.
Opened door to get food put more food in closed door it wouldnt work
Everything worked on the display light inside worked but when you closed the door and set time it would start counting down but not heating nor would the turntable turn. Started reading troubleshooting chart and first thing I did was removed the cover and checked door switches and found primary door switch wasn't working so I ordered a new one installed it and it worked. Anyone doing this has to be very careful because of the stored energy in the capacitor is strong enough to kill. My micro is only 2 years old so I was hoping it wasn't anything major.
I'm very impressed with the quailty of the product and the shipping speed. I had the new microwave plate in 2 business days. No difficulties with installation, obviously.
Microwave would turn off & appear to lose power after a few seconds, then reset.
As soon as I opened up the microwave I noticed a burnt connection on the Thermostat. Received replacement Thermostat in two days. This was very easy to change once the cover was off. I also replaced the burnt push-on spade connector on the Thermostat. Putting the microwave's cover back on properly was the only challenging step! The microwave oven now works perfectly again. Really easy repair.
I REMOVED THE TOP PANEL OF THE MICR0WAVE AND THEN REMOVED ONE SCREW TO REMOVE THE CONTROL PANEL. rEMOVED OLD SWITCH. SNAPPED IN NEW SWITCH AND CONNECTED WIRE. REPLACED CONTROL PANEL AND UPPER PANEL.
