I have an older Kenmore Microwave oven from around 1983/1984 with a built-in TV and cassette player. Are replacements parts available for the micro-wave? The TV and cassette player work fine but the microwave recently stopped working - I was told I need a power circuit board and main control unit. I think the model number is 564.8998310. Thank you

George,
Kenmore is a Sears brand and I have included a link to their parts website and the bulb. I hope it is the one you are looking for. Lamp Part Number 10529 GUARANTEED FIT from Sears PartsDirect

Many Kenmore appliance manuals are available from Manage My Life. com . The Kenmore 66222 manual is here: http://www.managemylife.com/mmh/owner_manuals/23454/KENMORE-Countertop-Microwave-L0520944?brand_name_search=Kenmore+66222 . A printed copy is available from Sears Parts Direct: http://www.managemylife.com/mmh/owner_manuals/23454/KENMORE-Countertop-Microwave-L0520944?brand_name_search=Kenmore+66222 . Scroll down for the manual; it's the fourth from the bottom.

Unless the microwave was labeled as a refurbished or open box unit, I'd contact K-mart customer service and see if they'll send you a replacement manual before you order one.

I hope this helps.

The tray used to be part number 16264 but it's no longer available.

That model oven was made by Sanyo.

If you have the old one, you can contact Martin Microwave with the dimensions and they may be able to find a suitable replacement.

Sometimes older microwave ovens are built into the walls and are attached to the studs and mountings already in the house with cabinets built around them. Try taking off the paneling of your cabinets a little at a time until you can see how the microwave is attached. With any luck, it's held in by brackets underneath the cabinets and not attached to the studs in the walls.

Good luck!

That's the waveguide cover, a critical part of the oven.

This arcing is usually due to grease or food particles stuck to the inside of the oven or stuck on or behind the waveguide cover.

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

The cover and the metal behind it should be cleaned with a mild, non-ammonia cleaner.

If the cavity metal of the oven is chipped or charred, it will have to be sanded smooth and clean.

Then you can apply some high-temperature appliance paint, available from places like Wal-Mart or Lowe's.

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

You can just enter your full model number at the Sears parts site.

A full Sears/Kenmore model number has 3 digits, a dot, then 8 more digits, such as ###.########

This was my first microwave oven repair, and I feared the worst - big $$$'s, parts no longer available, etc. But after I pulled the unit forward and found the schematic diagram, it turned out to be a defective microswitch in the secondary door latch circuit.
Even in retirement, my degrees in electronics and computer science occasionally save me some $$$'s.
