FFMV163PBA Frigidaire Microwave - Instructions

Unfortunately for us, it wasn't the diode that needed to be replaced. The instructions that were given on how to discharge the capacitor before working on the diode, magnatron or capacitor itself, was very helpful. You don't need to be and electrician if you can follow directions. Ours ended up being the magnatron. It took about 15 minutes to swirch out. I had to buy yhe part thru another site, because it was $40. 00 Dollars cheaper and the part was here in one day. Thanks for the information on the repair.

Easy. Loosen up plastic cover from inside door(putty knife worked well)
Removed latch part. use long nose pliers to connect spring.Set latch in slots. Job done.

When I received the new grille, I simply removed the damaged one and replaced it. It was easy and no need to spend all that money to pay a repair person to do it. Same thing when I replaced the handle trim snap-in lock that was broken on the fridge. Easy and no hassle.

After watching a utube video on how to disassemble a microwave door by using a putty knife, I was able to get to the window glass and clean off the black smoke mark left by a seriously burned plastic seal. I snapped the layers of the door back together, peeled off the damaged seal and stuck on the new one. It worked perfectly and was a very cheap fix. Now I just have to make sure my children don't hide metal cake pans in the microwave again! :)

Ppulled it out of its shipping box. Took off broken vent grille and snapped in new one. Took maybe one minute. Shipping was even quicker than expected.

I purchased the necessary mounting bracket and installed it but then found out that the microwave was defective. I was able to return the merchandise to PartSelect without a problem. Will definitey go to Part Select the next time I need replacement parts.
