Microwave Turntable Motor 21V AC Synchronous Motor Compatible for LG GE and Others

My microwave had been intermittently not spinning for a while and it finally quit completely. I started looking at new microwaves but couldn't justify the cost since the microwave itself worked perfectly fine other than the spinning issue. Did some googling and figured out that it was a simple motor that could be replaced! Pulled the motor out of my microwave and searched and found this one that matched most of the numbers on the old motor and ordered it. Super easy to reinstall just don't drop the screw when you're trying to screw the new motor back in! Would have been smooth sailing had I not done that LOL

I had removed the metal plate on the bottom of the micro wave and to do that I had to break a few tabs of sheet metal that would serve as tabs to reattach it with one screw after I installed the new turner . went in perfect and also connected with ease .

Stopped working a week after installation

This motor seems to have quite a bit lower gear ratio than the one it replaced. Consequently, the platter spins considerably faster than before - which would not typically be a problem. However, heavier items such as a bowl of soup, or even a mug of coffee, must be centered fairly well or the motor cannot start them spinning. It just oscillates back and forth a little, which is probably plastic gears slipping or stripping. Not good. Eventually it (sometimes) gets its act together and begins the proper circular motion.

My original part number was different and the rpm speed was half of this model but this works great and was simple to replace

Works as well as original, so it's terrific.

fit and works!

great replacement Thanks
