How do you get the Microwave out? It may be unplugged or broken. No power.

There is 4 screws coming up from the cabinet below. These screws hold a piece of 1/4 inch plywood to the bottom of the nuker. Push the nuker back an inch and take out the black starboard piece in front then you can work it out.

so youre saying to open the sliding cabinet and access screws from the underside?  Ill look again but i thnk when the sliding door opens its a finished cabinet about 6" deep.

Taking out the strip of starboard is the tough part.

ah.... so what reneechris14 is saying is the 1/4" plywood piece comes out with the microwave, after the starboard piece is removed.  Not that I disconnect it from the plywood and leave the plywood in place?

I believe that's right.  I tried to pull mine when removing the coffee pot.  I took out the screws below, but it would not come out past the piece of starboard.  I was not excited about the idea of removing the starboard as it appears to be glued down.  So I found another way to remove the coffee pot and put the micro back where it was.

Yes plywood comes out with the microwave 
Starboard is not glued down just hard to get the microwave back enough to access the srcews.
Once it is out the plug is around the corner to the left(port). Put your hand in the microwave with the door open pick it up a little and scoot it back.

@reneechris14 can you describe where the screws are in that piece of starboard?  I've scratched my head over getting that out more than once.

They go straight down from the top but the microwave has to go back about an inch to see them.

@Stodge may be if you open the door on the microwave you can see them

I'll take a peek next time I'm taking things apart down below.
