Microwave is very noisy; rattling or grinding sounds from the turntable area.

Safety first: Unplug the microwave before handling internal parts.

• Step 1 – Remove and inspect tray: Take out the glass tray and roller ring. Clean both thoroughly and remove any food debris from the cavity floor.
• Step 2 – Check roller ring: Inspect the wheels for flat spots or cracks. Replace the roller ring if damaged.
• Step 3 – Inspect coupler: Check the plastic coupler that fits on the motor shaft for cracks or wear. Replace if loose or damaged.
• Step 4 – Test motor: With the tray removed, run the microwave briefly (with a cup of water) and listen to the motor. If it grinds or squeals, replace the turntable motor.
