Try replacing the screws with larger ones. Maybe you ordered the wrong piece, if your microwave comes with a mica cover (A fine, square piece of mica) and you received a plastic one, you will need to get the right piece or adapt the one you received.
You can get the mica cover on any microwave service.

SOURCE: inside the microwave the piece

Yes. This is the waveguide cover, and it needs to be there to protect the magnetron from damage.

The waveguide cover is usually about the size of a playing card and often held in place by a plastic rivet or held in a slotted opening.

It can be fragile, and the metal edges of the oven behind it can be sharp, so be careful!

If your waveguide cover is burned or damaged, it will need to be replaced.

You can often find helpful exploded view diagrams and order parts by entering your full model number here or here.

Please write back with your brand and model number if you need further help.

SOURCE: Metallic-like cardboard insert inside microwave is crumbling???

That piece is called the waveguide cover. Emerson calls it a spatter shield. Behind it is the hole where the microwaves enter the oven. Its job is to prevent food spatters from getting into the microwave source, and it's not a good idea to run the oven without it.

The cover is usually held in place by a plastic rivet that pulls out. I couldn't find the part number for the cover used in your model. But here is a link to a parts place that has several covers available:

http://www.a-1catalog.com/wavandstirco.html

If one of the covers shown looks like yours you can order it. Another possibility is to contact Emerson at 800-695-0098. This is the number they give to locate authorized servicers near you, and you might be able to order a replacement cover through them.

Hope this has helped. If so, please take a moment to rate the solution. Thanks for asking here!

Oven quit working on model mv-1320w

That would be a defective door switch, most likely the bottom one.

(It's either the top or bottom switch (not the middle one) and whichever one has thicker wires, not the one with the thinner wires.)

See my help text file on door switches here.

To order other Goldstar / L.G. parts besides door switches, visit Encompass. You'll probably have to call them at 866-779-5835 to get part numbers.

The scrolling speed for the timed cooking is running incredibly fast - too fast to allow the food to cook. I was looking for a manual for Model #MV-1320B.

The owner's manual can be found here.

It sounds like the oven has been placed in "demo mode".

My Goldstar MV-1310W microwave has sparks flying from the metal plate that's inside on the top.

Microwave ovens do not work well with exposed metal. IF you place uncoated metal in the oven, sparks will occur.
IF the interior of the oven has the metal exposed, it will cause sparking to occur.

There must be NO exposed metal inside a Microwave oven!

Goldstar mv-1526. Bought used microwave it has bracket, but no screws/bolts..I got service manual, but it does not tell you what size screws I need. Help.

This machine is going intothe underside of your cabinets? Are you screwing or bolting?

10X24 or 10X32 by 1 inch or 1 1/4 inch should do it. Use washers on the top.

Screws ... at least 3/4 #8 pan head

Dear Sir, I have a Goldstar MV-1320W microwave. Tonight, for no apparent reason a loud blowing noise started. It sounded different than the usual fan and would not respond to anything from the keypad. I...

I'd suspect the relay located on the pcb to be shorted, as in the contacts welded/stuck together.  This isn't available separately from Goldstar, as it comes with the circuit board.  The board will probably be prohibitively expensive.  If you have the know-how, remove the board so as to make working on it easier.  Remove the relay lid and using a points file or emery cloth, clean them up.  My experience with this, is the repair works great.  The relay lid may never fit again, as most of them are "sealed", and not designed for removal.  Of course, a replacement relay with roughly the same specs could replace the defective one.  These are usually 120v spst, normally open.
