Microwave Magnetron 2B71165R

Simple to understand and install

Hardest part was getting up the courage to take it on

The part was exactly right and fit perfectly. Installation wasn't too bad, with the worst part getting the microwave oven down and back up. Would have had to do that with a new oven, and the 30 minutes it too to replace the part more than paid for itself. Wife is saying it makes the oven act like it is new.

Magnetron was easy to install but since no install instructions came with shipped repair part, had to go on YouTube for advise.Getting over the counter Microwave down, cleaning off 13 years of grease and re-installing back over the counter by myself was a chore.But “successful” replacement made up for any hardship.

Our 2014 LG microwave suddenly stopped working mid-2019 and LG wouldn't cover the cost to repair it because we didn't have the proof of purchase for the microwave. (Overhead mounted microwave in a new house, but we are the second owners). I was very annoyed with the prospect of potentially having to purchase a new $200+ microwave, but after some research I realized it might be pretty simple to fix. There are definitely some electrical dangers involved with this, so if you do find yourself replacing this component, take the time to thoroughly research the process and be safe. SearsPartDirect makes it easy to find the exact parts for your appliance and the replacement Magnetron I received worked perfectly! Hopefully this one lasts longer than the original.

It was easy to install and it took about 15 to 25 minutes that's taken it down and put it back up

It took me 5min to install the part and it was the right fit.
