The Bosch 00628013 microwave turntable drive coupling is an essential replacement component designed for homeowners who need to restore the smooth rotation of their microwave platter. It serves as the mechanical link between the turntable motor and the glass tray, ensuring your food heats evenly throughout the cooking process. While this genuine OEM part offers high compatibility and durability, users should be aware that it requires careful alignment during installation to ensure proper engagement with the motor spindle.

FAQs
How do I know if my drive coupling is broken?
If your turntable stops spinning but you can still hear the motor running, or if the platter wobbles excessively, the coupling is likely stripped or cracked.
Is this a universal part?
No, this is a specific Bosch OEM part (00628013). Always check your microwave's model number before ordering.
Do I need tools to replace this?
In most cases, no tools are required as the part is designed to be pulled off and pushed onto the motor spindle by hand.
Can I use the microwave without the coupling?
The microwave will heat, but the food will not rotate, which will likely result in unevenly cooked or cold spots in your food.
Why does the coupling strip over time?
Continuous friction, heavy loads, or food debris causing the platter to jam can cause the plastic teeth of the coupling to wear down.
Troubleshooting
Turntable still does not rotate after installation
Check if the roller ring is properly seated or if the turntable hub is misaligned with the new coupling.
Coupling feels loose on the motor shaft
Verify that you have removed any remnants of the old, broken coupling and that the new part is pushed fully down onto the spindle.
Loud grinding noise during operation
Ensure no food debris is trapped under the glass tray or in the path of the roller ring.
Pros and Cons

- Restores smooth and consistent turntable rotation

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the drive coupling, first ensure the microwave is unplugged for safety. Remove the glass tray and the roller ring from the interior. Locate the center drive coupling on the microwave floor; it may simply pull off the motor spindle. Align the new 00628013 coupling with the flat side of the motor shaft and press down firmly until it is seated. Replace the roller ring and glass tray, ensuring they rotate freely before turning the power back on. To maintain the part, avoid overloading the glass tray with excessively heavy cookware, as this puts unnecessary stress on the coupling and the motor.
