I have an over-the-stove Frigidaire Microwave (model GLMV168KS4) that works very well except for one problem that developed this month. The turntable no longer turns.

I'm suspecting the turntable motor, but need help in finding a source for a replacement part and a manual or other directions indicating how to replace it.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thank you.

Ive seen it listed here and at various other appliance parts
sites. However the price is anywhere from $70 to $155 :eek:.
The Frigidaire part number on this is 5304408980.
They use this same motor on Frigidaire GE and others.
Keep in mind when looking at substitutes that turntable
motors are designed to run under either one of two voltages,
either 120 volts or 21. I believe yours is 21.
Here is a source for this motor that wont break the bank.

Martin Microwave Inc.

You should be able to do it without removing the unit.
On most of them you have to drop the bottom covers off. Although
I have seen a few where you go from the inside.
