JKwikFix Posted April 6, 2009 Posted April 6, 2009 My microwave door frame has slowly been cracking over time and is now in need of replacement. I have ordered a replacement frame - could you post the service manual so I can see how to remove the existing door? No visible screws so I am wondering if the microwave needs to be unmounted from over the stove for this repair?Thanks!

JKwikFix Posted April 7, 2009 Author Posted April 7, 2009 Thank you, this looks very helpful. To remove door it mentions the following:1. Remove power, top grille and short out capacitorCan you send any parts of the manual that show what they mean about removing the short out cap? (And for power I am assuming they mean to unplug the unit)Much thanks!!

JKwikFix Posted April 7, 2009 Author Posted April 7, 2009 After I posted I realized they meant to short out the cap, my problem is not knowing where the capacitor is located, if the service manual covers basic steps like these along with a diagram of where the capacitor is located I can take care of it. Is there a complete service manual for this series of microwave?Thanks very much, I like the amount of effort you guys have put into this website.
