I need to change the handle on my microwave modle khms155lss3. How do I get to the screws to take it off?

You need to dismantle the door.
Unplug it from the mains
Then remove all the screws which hold the door together.
The front should seperate from the inside.
Take care not to lose any parts or dislodge the mesh screen from the window.
Undo the handle from the inside, remove & then replace the same way it came out.
Reattach the sections of the door & tighten all the screws.!

can u send me the pic of door and the handle of ur oven at [email protected]........

The star-shaped screws are called TORX and range in size from T-1 [small] to T-50[ quite large]. a set of inexpensive bits that fit a driver handle can be found at a hardware or auto supply.

Normally you have to separate the door panels (as shown in the attached photo) and then you'll see the screws you need to remove.

Or you can watch a YouTube video (not a video I made) here that demonstrates how it's done.

You can find handy exploded views and order parts by model number here.

Hi, I have a ge modle jvm1631 and mine has two scerws in the front of the cover (can be hard to see in dim light) on some modles you might have to have door open and screws will go in from bottom of cover. Then there is a filter inside that you take out and remove a metal plate that covers bulb.

Take a look on amazon for replacements, here Amazon com microwave handle. I hope this was helpful. cheers

To replace the plastic handle on the KitchenAid KHMS155LSS-3 you pry open the door cover from the inside to release the upper tangs (~10). I used razor blades wedged between the tang point to hold them disengaged. Pull the front cover off the door starting from the handle end. Once the top edge is free, the bottom can be remover. See Pitcures.
Repeat the door cover removes with the handle attached from the front after you lift the tangs.

get one minute epoxy and glue the handle.

Inside the microwave door between the glass and the edge is a plastic insert called a choke. This snaps into place and needs to be removed to expose the handle screws. Microwave repairs are not for the do it your self person. They should be made by a qualified service technician so the unit can be leak check after making any repair.

Check out this door frame diagram, specifically number 1805. It clips on to the door frame. Remove it using a dull table knife or something similar (be careful not to scratch or break anything). You will then have access to the bottom screw.
