2007 Carver 35SS (Super Sport) - remove microwave?

[BigBadJohnnyB]

Hi all,

I just purchased a 2007 Carver 35SS, 3rd owner. I’m trying to figure out how to pull out the microwave/coffee maker combo unit and replace with a more updated convection/air fryer appliance.

There are no obvious mounting/securing screws, nor do I see a trim piece that I can remove - other than the hole cut in the cabinetry itself, this doesn’t appear to be a trim piece, like surrounding the TV or cabinet doors which may reveal screws.

All I see is a black board that seems to just be sitting on top of the microwave. It is not secured, but cut and shaped such that it’s not going anywhere, and I can’t pull it out - although I CAN wiggle it. That being the case, it doesn’t appear to be securing the microwave in place, but probably rather just stopping the microwave from bouncing around in the cavity? I don’t know.

At any rate - any advice on how I can pull this microwave? I have pulled the power from the outlet that’s inside the cabinet directly to the right of the appliance - and when I attempt to pull on the microwave (seems solidly mounted) it’s not as if it is snagging on the cord in any way that I can tell.

Any advice would be SO appreciated!

Welcome to the forum. Chances are the black board is screwed from underneath and the micro is screwed to the board from under the board.....that is how mine was. Have a real good look around the screws can be hidden quite well.....good luck

Maybe some pictures would help.
