Kitchen aid kemms308sss04 plastic insert on turn table broke how do you replaace

On the inside of the door there is a plastic piece that goes completely around the glass. Take a small screw driver or pick and carefully slide the tool in beside it and once again carefully remove this trim piece by pulling it from it's seat. This will give you access to the screws which hold the handle.

Does it have the option to turn the turn table off if so turn it off and see if noise goes away if so turn table motor very common over time it will default back to on on next cycle

this youtube video will show you how to disassamble the door to replace the handle

you can buy that part online kitchen aid.

Door parts are available separately on this model.

The parts manual is here. And you can order parts here.

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.

Hi,

Remove bottom panel,< screws along front and tips down > the turntable motor is in the middle. Unplug motor and use multi-meter< insert probes into plug end > run short cycle with something inside of unit," glass of water ", if you have voltage here then the motor is bad and needs replaced. If not then mother board most likely problem.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

the purpose of the turntable is to more evenly cook the food. it shouldnt effect the mics ability to cook, just might take a little longer to thoroughly cook food

If you need a replacement turntable coupler, you can find this part listed as item number 942560 at repairclinic.com. Just type in your model number.

To replace, all you need to do is carefully slide something under the existing coupler (if you can) and pry up. The coupler will pull off the motor shaft.

If you cannot access the coupler due to the way it was broken, simply remove the bottom panel UNDER the oven. With the panel removed, locate the small turntable motor and loosen the mounting screws to remove. The coupler should be easily accessible with the motor out of the unit. Make sure you reinstall the turntable motor and bottom panel BEFORE you try to install the new coupler. The coupler needs to be installed from inside the oven cavity by placing it in the opening in the oven floor and pushing straight down onto the motor shaft.

If you have questions, or require additional assistanc, please let me know. I hope this helps you.

The door latch heads (prods) are not making proper contact with the door switches, so it will not work right.

The latch heads need to be replaced.

If everything on the microwave works, except the turntable, this could be a simple turntable drive motor failure. It does happen from time to time. This motor gets a workout as it runs each and every time you use the oven. I just want to reassure you that these DO wear out and should not be an indication of the quality of the oven. I've had to replace them before. The motor costs about $34 at searspartsdirect.com. That is...if your model number is correct. You will need to go to the web site and type in your COMPLETE model number. There are several Kitchen-Aid models listed with the number you provided. I managed to scroll through several of the part listings and they all seem to be consistent with identfying the motor you need as item #11 under the "Oven Cavity" heading. The part number is W10159107. This is a fairly simple repair job. You shouldn't have to uninstall the oven if it is cabinet mounted. All have to do is unplug the power source and remove the panel covering the underside of the microwave. The plastic spindle just pulls off the motor shaft. Let me know if you need further assistance. I hope this helps you.
