Question Inlet cover for Kenmore Microwave
Model Number: 66568610891   Brand: Kenmore   Age: 5 - 10 years   

I bought a new inlet cover. The old one looks like a thin piece of card board. The new one arrived part#8184604 and the kit contains 2 plastic pieces, plastic nails (same as the old ones), 3 fresh naps, and a tube of what seems to be some type of adhesive but no directions. Either of the plastic pieces would fit alone but are they supposed to go together? The plastic nails will not work if they do. Any advice would be appreciated.

Smile Solution found

I found a solution to my question through a friend that used ************.com

The solution is as follows:

Step 1: Open microwave door. Slide putty knife under head of plastic nails holding old inlet cover. Pry down to remove nails. Remove bushings and mica plate. Discard removed parts.

Step 2: Remove and clean stirrer blade with provided cloth. Remove all residual food stains on the edge of the opening with sandpaper. Thoroughly wipe with clean cloth provided. Use third cloth to thoroughly clean area approximately 3" around opening.

Step 3: Reinstall stirrer blade.

Step 4: Using nozzle provided, apply bead of sealant equally around the tri-groove on the white plastic inlet cover. Make sure there are no voids within the sealant bead.

Step 5: Install inlet cover making sure that the stirrer shaft engages stirrer guide. Align holes in the top of the microwave cavity.

Step 6: Hold inlet cover and install nail bushings and nails.

Job is finished.
