The holder was too difficult to remove so I just. The microwave has 3 relay switches and they are in a little holder. I first removed the top plate above the microwave door (3 screws), then I removed the plate containing the buttons and clock. Timer would run but the microwave won't start. The pic below shows a '66-67 model (RCI-645K).Frigidaire fmv156dcc Frigidaire Microwave Model FMV156DCC Parts - Shop online or call 88. This is an ad showing the 1964 model (RCIH-645): Here's another with the later clock like mine on the first picture (the shape of the 3 'smiles' for the time signal and oven timer changed a bit): Here's one with an early-production clock:

Mine is from 1963 and also a Canadian model without the 'Speed Heat' burner and a few other minor differences.Ĭhanges from the previous model included a redesigned control panel, different oven grilles and trim below the oven door. The door spring mechanism was also simplified on models like mine as earlier ones used cables and pulleys.ġ962-63 was RCIB-645-2. During the production of this model, the Flair badge changed from having a blue background to a black background, the anodized aluminum trim on the side also went from mirror-like and flat on (very early?) ones (sorry no pics but I parted out one like this) to ribbed and dull silver on later ones. This picture shows mine which was built in late-1961/early 1962 and sold in April of 1962 (it's a Canadian model). I'll show some of the more common 40' Custom Imperial models.ġ960-61 was RCIB-645. There were also 'Twin 30' Flair models and single and double wall ovens in many variations. The most expensive, but also most common Custom Imperial models, in 30' and 40' versions. Then there was the rare Imperial (similar to the cheapest Deluxe models but with a chrome oven and a fluorescent light and still just one 8' burner and burner controls on the cooking surface)

Custom Deluxe (similar to the Custom Imperial but lacking the chrome ovens, 'Speed Heat' and 'Heat Minder' burners, the controlled broil and no meat probe) but just like the Custom Imperial, they had burner switches on their control panel and 2 8' burners. Deluxe (with 3 6' burners and burner controls on the cooking surface, no fluorescent light)
