The closest match I found was for perhaps $150. I also priced out the rest of the replacement parts and it appears they are operating a scam because these parts no way are that expensive - even adding 20% and labor.

I hoped that repair might be possible. Darren Smith was prompt, punctual and polite. He diagnosed the problem quickly, and clearly explained his recommendation that repair would not be economical and that purchasing a new replacement was the sensible next step. Since no repair work was done, he reduced his service call price to $60 (from the normal $85). Because Darren Smith only repairs appliances, and does not sell them, I was able to trust his recommendation.

We selected an option for repair, and Scott was able to repair it same day which was above our expectations.

This saved us about $100 and an hour in repairs, and ensured we could get it done same day.
I would definitely recommend Northern for HVAC issues. Great to work with in every way.

They cleaned the oven but never opened the drawer beneath and when we went to put items in the drawer, there were crumbs everywhere. Also, they did not clean any part of the laundry closet. The floor was dirty, as were the tops of the washer and dryer. We even found the previous owner's sock and dryer sheets on the floor! My only other complaint is that the kitchen floor still had crumbs and dirt in the corners and around the baseboards. They may have washed the floor but obviously didn't sweep it well enough before hand. It may sound very nit picky but we paid $215 for the service (it's a very small condo) and felt like their attention to detail fell short. We were not their to supervise so that may have been the issue.

The job went fine and the dishwasher is still working. Our top of the line dishwasher has broken down three times and the other two times we had another company come to do the work but we think Appliance Repair Leaders did a better job. We would use them again in the future.

"Horrible Service: Unfortunately, ML Fuller was assigned to me for warranty work by LG Corporation. It took four trips for Fuller to repair my refrigerator as they do not stock many LG parts. After replacing my compressor and evaporator, the overworked, very tired Fuller technician forgot to plug in a connector for the refrigerator fan. This resulted in a non functioning refrigerator and a frozen/cracked water reservoir. It took two more visits for Fuller to resolve an issue that they caused. Since ML Fuller only employs one technician certified to work on sealed refrigerant units, there can be long delays before he can get to your house. I will never purchase another LG appliance again unless LG obtains a better authorized service center."

Small Appliance Repair questions, answered by experts
Refinishing gives appliances a refreshed look, extends their lifespan, and is more cost-effective than new purchases. It also allows personalization to match the decor.
Some of the most common microwave repair problems include magnetron failure and a plate that won’t spin. When a magnetron fails, the microwave won’t efficiently heat your food—a frustrating albeit common experience. Meanwhile, a plate that doesn’t spin won’t thoroughly heat food, even if the magnetron works.
With proper cleaning and maintenance, most ovens last 15 to 20 years. When it comes to longevity, ovens are one of the more enduring appliances. That's because ovens don't have as many moving parts as other popular large appliances, like dishwashers and washing machines, so they don't wear out as quickly.
The most obvious sign that it’s time to repair or replace your microwave is that it is no longer heating food. If you notice your food coming out cold or not as warm as it used to, call a small appliance repair technician for help.
Some other signs your microwave is in need of service include:
It’s making strange noises during operation.
The interior plate no longer spins.
You notice strange smells or see smoke.
It’s close to or more than eight years old.
In most cases, it’s better to repair a microwave than replace it, provided the appliance isn’t reaching the end of its life. The average cost to repair a microwave is $175, while a total replacement will average around $500, including the microwave and the labor cost to install it. If your microwave is less than five years old, it will probably be more cost-effective to repair it. If it’s reaching the end of its life—usually around seven to eight years old—then replacing it might be more affordable in the long run.
