GMH6185XVB0 Whirlpool Microwave - Instructions

Open compartment, installed bulb, closed compartment

took it to Buttermore appliance in Auburn Indiana and he changed the fan and added another fuse

Took the front off and behind a plate was the fuse, so I replaced it for what good that did!!!

Unplug microwave. Remove turntable and support from inside. Remove outside bottom cover (10 screws). Remove 2 torx screws holding motor in place. Remove 2 wires from motor, noting colors. Wires are held with spade connectors that has a small tab that needs to be depressed. Remove washer from motor and place on new motor. Entire procedure very easy.

To replace charcoal filter in microwave, had to take grill off. Tabs on 2 of the 3 screws were fractured and then glued. This happened at the factory. Found Parts Select on the internet who had the grill and filter. Received parts in less than 5 days. Grill was easy to install as the 3rd tab had been eliminated on the replacement part. THANKS PARTS SELECT

Time to replace the charcoal filter

I didn't do the repair -- my husband did, said it was easy, had no problems what so ever! The new bulbs give a lot more light to the cooking area.

You had alerted that it was imperative to unplug unit before starting to remove defective bulb. As described, there was silicon on bulb and socket and bulb broke upon my attempt to remove. Had to use needle nose pliers to get metal base of old bulb from socket, then all went well.

Watched video which reminded me to order support for the turntable support ring and did exactly what the person in the video did. Excellent and prompt service and all parts fit.

After researching online, I found that I needed the turntable drive coupling, part#PS993087. when I went to your site it showed the same part but the part number had changed but said it would fit my microwave. Well, I was really surprised and happy when the part I received 3 days after I placed the order, with normal shipping,fit perfectly and now my turn table in my microwave works. I have marked this site a a favorite and will use it I'm sure soon. Being a single women and having to figure out how to fix the things on a small buget, I'm learning a lot and have a lot of respect for men that know how to do all the repair stuff. Thanks so much, I have been able to mark this off my list of things to fix. Have a nice day. Cj- age, 58

Simply placed new dish on the rotating hub.

Took the replacement plate out of the box and put it in the microwave in seconds. I never realized how much of a difference having the correct microwave plate would make. It's great to have it back.

While on your web site and looking at the three parts needed for my microhood oven, I called Customer Service to make certain the parts were correct. The three parts ordered and received were "exact" and easy to replace as instructed with one simple phillips screwdriver. Also, the total price was very reasonable. I would like to also add that the Vent Grille you sent has a much more improved support structure where the mounting screws are inserted than the original. I would, without hesitation, order parts from you in the future than from the major chain store where I purchased the appliance.

The problem I have with changing the bulb is my microwave is an overhead one and therefore I cannot tip it on its side to easily replace the bulb. I have to drop the lid down and carefully install the new bulb from underneath.
