Re: HOW DO I CONVERT A VENTED MICROWAVE OVEN TO A...
Basically, you don't, but if you'really dedicated, you could find a sheet metal shop in the phone book and have them make a different case for the oven.

Probably not cost effective. Your measurements suggest a standard size microwave. Take them down to a big box store and compare with models on display. note where the plug comes out and whether you have a vent or not. Most can be made vented or ventless when installing.
alot of these units can just be vented right out front grill of unt. outside would be alot better so that the odors are not being smelled indoors but the fan housing can actually been changed to blow up or you can make it blow out the front grill requireing no venting at all...hope this helps you out good luck
When you initially unpackage the microwave oven it is already set up for RECIRCULATION mode (which is VENTLESS). However, since the unit recirculates air rather than exhausting it out through the wall or roof, it usually uses a couple of small charcoal filters behind the upper grille and mesh filters on the underside that have to be changed or cleaned periodically. These filters will accumulate grease and dirt over time and should be periodically checked in order to maintain proper ventilation and air flow. Information pertaining to the location and care of the filters is explained on Page 4 of your Owner's Manual.
NOTE: If you wish to convert to a VENTED system, the instructions are listed on Page 4 of the Installation Guide.
If you do not have either manual you can obtain copies at managemylife.com. Just type in your model number as "GMH3174XVB" and you will find the manuals listed in a .pdf (Adobe) format that can be printed or downloaded for FREE.
If you have any questions, please post back and let me know. I hope this helps you.
Can't tell by pict for sure, IF this is a Microwave that is vented. Is it possible your vent it needs to be cleared. Sounds like possible moisture in the microwave, This would shut it down in the middle of a cycle. The moisture would happen from poor or clogged venting.
the vent tube in back may not have been changed over they can be vented or ventless but you must switch the flap in back you had the answer in your question ... good job,,..lol
