Hi, Can anyone tell me how to remove the over range microwave
From my 1991 Grand Villa.
I've searched above and below but nothing seems to loosen the unit.
Their were a couple knurled knob/screws in the back and one screw in the
Front upper left but removal hasn't loosened the unit.

Is it a Sharp? If so, the current models are exactly like my 20 year old one. Google the installation instructions for a current model and see if it applies to yours. I think they are on the Lowes site. There are also several threads on the forum about removing the microwave. Some very recent. I had screws up into the top frame and in from the left side along with the standard mounting system by Sharp.

look for some well hidden screws along the top of microwave
Remove the light lens and the grease filters. Look up from the underside into those areas. You will probably see two large screw heads that are at a 45 degree angle pointing up and toward the rear of the unit. If so, they are very long and screw into the separate mounting bracket that is attached to the wall behind the unit.
If there is a removable panel above the door, take it off and look there for mounting screws.
Also, look on the floor of the cabinet above the unit, and wall of cabinet next to the unit, for hidden mounting screws or bolts.
