Parts That Fix KitchenAid Microwave KHMS2050SSS2 Exhaust fan not working

This damper is an authentic OEM replacement assembly used in microwave/range hood combos. It includes the damper door and frame. It is designed to direct the flow of air through the vent duct, and the release of steam and heat from the appliance during cooking. Over time, the damper door and frame can wear down or become obstructed by food particles and debris. A faulty damper assembly will result in poor ventilation, uneven cooking, and excessive moisture buildup which can damage internal components in the appliance. Disconnect any wires or connectors attached to the faulty damper assembly and remove it from the appliance. Position the new damper assembly and reconnect the wires/connectors before securing it with the appropriate fasteners.

The charcoal filter, used in microwaves, removes food odors from the air. If your filter is damaged or you notice strong odors coming from your microwave, it is best to replace it. This part is metallic and measures about 12 inches wide and 6 inches deep. The tool required for this repair is a Phillips screwdriver. First, remove screws at the top of microwave to access the filter. Next, remove the old filter and insert new filter by pushing it all the way back, so the edges connect to the two tabs. The front edge of the filter should rest at the bottom of the cavity. Do not forget to replace the grill after installing new filter. Remember to unplug your microwave from the power source before installation process.
