LRM1260SW (CWHELGA) LG Microwave - Instructions

I looked up the part number, with shipping it came to $16, and in one minute of installation time, I just gently pushed the button into the front using the original springs that pushed the button back out, and it just clicked into place, the microwave back in action.

Inserted spring on middle post on button back side. Pushed button/spring into hole on front of microwave until clips engaged and snaped into place.

I tested the motor with an OHM meter, saw it was shot. Broke the turntable off when I tried to take it out from inside where it's attatched to the drive motor.( The plastic was like glued or welded onto the shaft of the original motor ) Had to open up the removable trap door on the bottom to pull the one screw that holds the motor in. Swapped it out, pushed the new turntable back in, and turned it on. Works like new! great parts, fast shipping, great deal !

Lifted up the glass plate, lifted out the plastic base that rotates and placed the new one inside. The piece that connects is shaped like a semi-circle, so I rotated it until is dropped into place. Then I put back the glass plate and it was finished.

saved me having to buy a new microwave. It was super fast delivery, had the part the next day! Amazing service and great customer support.

Replaced Microwave Button with new button and hooks. Repaire took one min. by just pushing the new button on the Microwave and it hooked on and did not pop out. Good for another 4 years maybe!

I removed the outer cover of the microwave and removed the bottom palte to access the small motor. i unplugged the old motor from teh wiring connector, removed (1) screw and motor came out. I reversed the proceedure with the new motor and it was finished.It was a piece of cake.

Overall repair quite simple. Removed screws from the sides and rear of the microwave, then removed cover. Next, removed only the screws to separate the bottom cover. Removed the one screw in the AC Synchronous motor to remove the motor (had to use small screwdriver through a vent slot in the bottom to remove the screw). Unplugged and removed motor. Installation is the reverse of removal. Note: on the back of my appliance were 4 torx screws with a tamperproof pin in the center. I used the rotary tool to grind out the pins so I could use a regular torx bit instead of ordering specialty bits.

Pried cover off bottom-center of microwave. It seems to be either glued or lightly tack welded. Removed 2 small Phillips screws to remove motor. Disconnected electric feed by hand. Don't let go of electric wire or small screws. They will be hard to retrieve from behind the rest of the metal base. Reverse process to install new motor. Didn't try to put small cover back on.
