Thank you so much for this video! As a mom with two young kiddos and a dog underfoot, I was able to complete this in less than 5 minutes. I have a GE microwave and the part number was different, so make sure that you check for parts that are compatible with your microwave’s model number. Oh, and to answer someone else’s question-you do have to remove the motor in order to change the coupler (at least with my microwave)-they have a tongue in groove that links them together.
Thanks for answering the question about removing the motor
Sounds good, but there is NO WAY you did this from start to finish in 5 minutes!!!
So helpful. Be sure to plug in and test the motor is working before replacing the bottom panel. The motor is also available at about $43 now. Grateful for these how to videos.
Excellent video. It showed me 98% of what I needed. My version of the microwave has a second screw holding the motor in and doesn't need a counter clockwise turn. But this is a minor variance in an otherwise spot on video. Thank you so much for saving me from having repair people in my house during a global pandemic.
thanks a lot I really couldn't fix the coupler without this video you're great
To Change the motor coupler was easy following the instructions. The video was very helpful. Thank you.
+Stella Galindo Good work!
That is so easy. Super clear instructions. Thanks!
Very good explanation!
Thank you! super easy!
is it normal on Emerson microwaves for the coupler to just lift off no screwing on turntable works fine microwaves heats up good please respond now please thanks
Are motors from other models interchangeable? Every parts site says the motor for my GE is no longer available.
Very helpful!!!
Thank you.,
I'm having a hard time getting the plate onto the motor spindle. It takes me 15 minutes to attach/fit plate onto the motor any suggestions?
How do I order a correct motor for my microwave turntable? My spins intermittently, do you think thats the problem? The coupler is in great shape..thank you sir
I have a GE Microwave model JVM7195ek1es, S/N SG227861B. The coupler appears to not be thick enough to stay engaged in the grooves of the glass tray. The tray constantly comes disengaged and then stops turning. Is there a thicker coupler that will go higher in the tray grooves and seat better so the tray does not slip off? Thanks. Love your videos BTW. I have repaired many a microwave, dishwasher, clothes washer and dryer because of your videos!
Thank you so much! How do you know if the coupler requires replacement?
StaphAureus The coupling would be physically broken or missing normally.
Is it really necessary to remove the motor to replace the coupler? Shouldn't pulling it out from inside the microwave and popping a new one on work?
I was just about to ask that also. Does anyone have the answer to this question? I wouldnt feel confident enough to remove the motor myself
Nevermind. I just pulled it out from another one of my microwaves and put it back in again and its rotating. Hope that helps anyone reading this
The turn table jumps out of the groves is the wheels under the table causing the problem
My dad cooked something for 8 minutes so the plastic piece has melted due the high temperature, do I need to buy the whole set?. My microwave is a Whirlpool fortunately still heating.
JT you can just buy a coupler on ebay. Try pulling the old one off before doing all the unnecessary work you see in this video.
thanks for the advice, I tried to pull it but, due it's plastic I couldn't do anything about it, it was totally melted at that very moment. I bought a new one (motor turntable and the coupler) for 12.95 bucks on ebay, this new one comes with a metallic pin on it instead of plastic like the old one, which is really cool, hopefully my dad don't screw it this time, LOL!. It's been working perfect without any issues.
Just Google microwave turn plate coupler it will bring up ever appliance part web sites that carry that part also have got you microwaves model and serial numbers with you so you know your getting the right part.
If you are just replacing the coupler there is no need to remove the motor, just remove the faulty coupler and install the new one.
Maybe in your case, but the majority of GE Microwaves have to have the motor removed to remove and replace the coupler.
yes
Where come we buy the ting

I replaced the turntable motor and coupler but the turntable still does not turn. Help what can I do now?
Same shit I’m dealing with now, what was the problem??
Disconnect connector from motor. Plug Microwave back in. Take a voltmeter, set it to AC volts 120v. Have someone help you by holding the connector. Then start the Microwave, take your voltmeter leads to each of the 2 points in the connector, you should have 120V. If you don't have 120V then your control board is gone.
repair clinic.com can food crumbs course a grinding noise in a microwave i have a Emerson microwave 1.6from walmart and since the coupler are no longer hard fixed on to the motor they just sit in there is it normal to hear a king slit pop at first start up after on no sound except the fan worms and cooks good is this normal it seems if food crumbs are in the turn table crevice i her a grinding noise if clean no abnormal noses only time I've herd nose is when food crumbs are in the turn table space and is it normal to hear a buzz if door not fully closed or something cout in it please respond now thanks
I keep seeing these videos. But my issue is the microwave plate dont stay on this part in the cleanest microwave, I can fix it right and it comes off just by using the microwave, it's a bad design. It suppose to grab it completely a little movement and it's off track. I even had it changed thinking it was a messed up one, ha! The past 6 years nothing but irritation. Samsung sucks!
MODEL NAME : ONIDA Black Beauty PB 28 123 MENUS
MODEL NUMBER :MO 28 BJS 17B
Which glass turntable suitable for this model and how much inch glass suitable
There is no view of the motor of the interchange point between the coupler and the motor. It would be helpful to see the motor turned over.
I hope thats the problem with my microwave
LOL, a brand new Microwave. On a older Microwave there will be grease all over the inside of that bottom piece and the surface where the motor is.
My turntable ed off
My turntable motor is AC 120V 3.0W 60Hz 3R.P.M
My replacement is AC 120V 2.10W 60Hz 3R.P.M Well it still work
