Turntable motor would not turn food tray
Replaced with new motor from Parts Select. Part was a correct replacement for the old one. perfect fit. Works like it did when it was new. I will recommend Parts Select to anyone. Thank you very much. I would definitely use your company again in the future. I saved $30 by not using parts from GE.

The door on microwave would not stay shut.
Called Maytag regarding the latch. Was told I had to order an entire new door that would cost around $170 before shipping and handling. Went on partselect and foundt he part for $2.02. Big difference in price. Very easy to install. Hardest part was getting the spring back on. Would definitely recommend to friends.

microwave would not heat.
hardest part was taking the microwave down off of the wall to gain access to the diode. Thought if was the transformer but ended up being just a blown diode. remove and replace and bench test. that part took 15 minutes . moral of the story don't boil water under the side of the microwave that holds the electric components.
