Appliance parts?

[MrChad]

We just bought a new house and the over-the-range microwave has a few parts that need to be replaced.

The outer frame of the microwave door is cracked, and the bulbs and sockets for the range light (underneath the microwave) are missing.

Replacing the lights is more important to me than the cracked door panel. I searched for my model number online (JVM1650) and found a few appliance stores online, but the prices are generally expensive and I'm not sure about the reliability of these sites.

Does anyone have any recommendations about where to buy appliance parts? Are there appliance junk yards where I can pick up used parts off of discarded appliances? Thanks for the help.

eBay? Craigslist?

I usually use this site to trouble shoot and look at diagrams.

I purchase the parts locally at the appliance parts store. Look in the yellow pages and find a parts store for your area. I live in a town with about 40,000 population, so you should have a parts source locally.

Appliances parts are pretty expensive, seems like the cosmetic stuff is where they like to stick it to you.
