Motor quit working but light and timer still worked.
Since others reported similar problems and it was just the fuse we tried that first. That wasn't the problem so we ordered the Door Interlock Switch Kit. Shipping was very fast! Our microwave had 3 switches. My husband asked how to know which one to switch. I read that one person just did process of elimination. Luckily ours worked on the first change out! So happy to have stumbled across this site and not have to buy a whole new microwave.

Door latch bracket broke
The only reason it took over 30 minutes was that the unit is a built in over the stove type installation. The special Philips like screw driver which I purchased was the wrong size. I had to use a small vice grip tool to remove and reinstall these screws. The suggestion to use a butter knife to spread the slot was a good one. The delivery from part select was amazing. We were not without our micro more than a few days

Door latch bracket which is plastic, broke.
Removed the four face plate screws and set it aside. Then I removed the three screws holding the base plate to the wall mounting. Removed the wall plug and lifted the microwave out. I then removed all the screws holding the cover on the microwave and pulled the case to the rear This left the door latch accessible. Since the old latch had broken and fallen off, I just had to figure how the new one was to be installed This was very simple to figure out and it took me about five seconds to put the new one in.. Be careful when installing because all the parts are plastic and susceptible to breakage. I then reinstalled the microwave cover and after plugging it in ,pushed it into the wall cavity and put all the screws in to hold the oven in place. I next installed the face plate and every thing was in working order, A very simple project.

Microwave was running, but would not heat
I started by calling a reputable service company to diagnose my problem. The repair tech told me it was the magnetron and it was a "very difficult" repair that required two people because the over-the-range unit needed to be taken down. I asked for a detailed estimate. He quoted $550 including parts and labor. After he left, I researched the part costs on this site and realized his costs were very inflated. I purchased the magnetron for $220. It arrived at my door two days later. Installation was very easy. First, I unplugged the unit. Then, while my wife was making sure it did not fall off the wall bracket, I unscrewed the two mounting screws from the top of the cabinet. I lifted the unit down from the wall and set it on the kitchen counter. The shell needed removed from the microwave which involved about 20 screws. This provided access to the magnetron on top. The magnetron is secured by five screws and a plug. I unplugged it, unscrewed it, and removed the old part. Then, I installed the new magnetron, and tested the microwave to make sure this did the trick. It worked. I put the outer shell back on the microwave and cleaned the microwave. (This is a great opportunity to clean the areas you do not typically see!). I then remounted the unit and plugged it back in. Saved myself a bit of money so I took the family out to dinner and a movie to celebrate. Microwave was in working order for heating up left overs the next day! Thank you!!!
