My microwave started sparking and burned a hole through what is listed as a Canopy, Mica, part number 1475 covers the microwave emitter with 1 screw inside on right of interior. A, is this common? B, What causes this and anything to be concerned about? C, Should I just replace it and move on or is there another problem? Also about 1 year after installing this microwave, the interior bulb blew out, I have not been able to find it listed in the parts schematics, the closest I found was called a holder 1207, does it use the halogen bulb listed as 282, also used underneath the microwave? How difficult is it to gain access to replace this bulb? Ted.

This is no small problem and more common than you realize! I don't answer to ambulance chasers, get a life. I am happy to report I replaced the Mica panel and my microwave works perfect. food stains get extremely hot and eat away at the mica and cause hot spots, I would recommend replacing the panel if it gets a stain on it that normal washing will not remove. Thanks for all the quick and accurate responses.:rolleyes:
