There is a whirlpool Microwave (model:MH1150XMB4) in our apartment. Unfortunately, there is a crack in the door. Although the crack is only in the plastic frame of the door, the landlord asked us to replace the whole door. I checked the price: the door costs over 200 bucks! I am wondering if it's possible to replace the frame only. But I don't know where to purchase such a part. Thanks for your response and help!

Unfortunately, door parts are not separately available for this model.

You can get for less than $200 here.

Remove 3 screws at the end of the door and gently pry off from frame at that end. Be careful because clear glass is attached to frame. Remove handle for new door (install last). Remove silicone with razor blade knife as best you can all around glass clips. Then slide glass to the top or bottom (for most movement) so you can lift from clips (gentle prying only). Put new bead of clear silicone on new door glass connections and gently reinstall (cleaned) glass. Reinstall handle. Place new door on frame at hinge side first and gently press on. Screw in the 3 screws.

SOURCE: How to replace cracked plastic door frame on Whirlpool microwave?

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

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

In some cases, you then have to gently rotate the handle to unlock it.

You can find helpful exploded view diagrams and order parts by entering your full model number here.

I have a Whirlpool GH6208XRS Microwave. It works great. However, the black paint on the inside of the door (around the glass) is peeling off. I need information about taking the door apart.

I don't think there is a manual for that microwave, however you can go to their website and look up manuals by model number. The parts manual has exploded views which might be very useful. Here is the link:

I like any microwave apart from the Phillips whirlpool Vip 27

I have a Phillips whirlpool Vip 27 and it still works (which is unfortunate because I like any microwave apart from the Phillips whirlpool Vip 27) so I am wondering if I should recycle it or give it to a charity because it's got a crack in it and I like any microwave apart from the Phillips whirlpool Vip 27 I hope to get rid of it and get a new one and if the Phillips whripool 27 became available again then I would never buy it again so goodbye Phillips whirlpool Vip 27

How can i replace the front door panel that has cracked at handle . it is whirlpool microwave over range

The parts are available from appliance parts houses. They do sell to the general public. I did one a few months ago. I think the outside door was around $30. It is not a difficult job. Just know that you have to take the entire door apart to do the job. 20-30 minutes.

Whirlpool microwave hood combination has code f2 on touch panel. Model number: MH-1150xm

The F2 error means you have a shorted membrane keypad.

If and when an oven is coming on or doing anything by itself, this is very dangerous and can result in a fire.

So until it is repaired, please leave it unplugged or leave the door open when it's not in use, and of course one should never leave a microwave unattended while cooking.

On these models, usually the membrane keypad is not available separately, so you would have to order and replace the control panel frame which comes with a new keypad (sometimes called "panl-cntrl").

The part availability and cost will depend on the full model number from the tag on the unit, and it will be one of these:

MH1150XMB0
MH1150XMB1
MH1150XMB2
MH1150XMB3
MH1150XMB4
MH1150XMQ0
MH1150XMQ1
MH1150XMQ2
MH1150XMQ3
MH1150XMQ4
MH1150XMS0
MH1150XMS1
MH1150XMS2
MH1150XMS3
MH1150XMS4
MH1150XMT0
MH1150XMT1
MH1150XMT2
MH1150XMT3
MH1150XMT4

You can order the part and find helpful exploded view diagrams here.

In this case, you simply move your circuit board into the new frame. That is a simple do-it-yourself job.

At our Web site, we have a video available showing how to remove a typical over the range control panel assembly in under 5 minutes.

Then you unplug the keypad (as per the photo below) and move the circuit board into your frame.

Door cracked

Contact Whirlpool. Most stores won't sell a part like this, and if you get one from a repair center, it will either be a used door, or they will charge you an insane price for it. Most times, the manufacturer can get you parts at a cheaper price, or, if you're under warranty and the door just fell apart, they might be able to send you the door (or repair the whole thing themselves) for free!
They don't seem to have a phone number, but here's the email form to contact them: http://www.whirlpool.com/custserv/email_form.jsp


Good luck! :)
