microwave oven turntable motor replacement

Changing the turntable motor is an Easy process.

 Removal process

·         Firstly, remove the glass tray and roller ring.

·         Remove the turntable coupling by pulling it out

 (the bit of plastic that makes the glass tray turn)

·         Turn the machine over (Yes, that's right, its located underneath the machine)

·         You will see a flap in the middle of the base, it has little metal tabs all around it, simply cut these tabs and the metal cover will fall off.

·         You will now see your turntable motor

·         Unscrew your turntable motor and remove the connections one at a time, swapping them on to your replacement motor like this ensures you don't loose a wire inside the machine.

Fitting your new turntable motor

·         Place the new motor back in, tighten the screws and refit connectors.

·         The cover you cut off before you can reuse, there will be a tab to push the cover into on one side, and a screw hole on the other.

·         Flip the machine back over and replace the coupling, roller ring and glass tray.

Stand back and admire your work!
