The installation manual for your microwave shows to install the microwave and trim. If you do not have your installation manual, it is available online. Do you know how to use google?

The trim just pulls straight off. It uses clips to hold it in place

Thanks to both. I looked up the installation manual before, it does show no screws involved. However, I am still having trouble pulling the trim off.

I am having the same problem. Any luck removing it?

Anyone get it off ? I need to remove my mces trim too

Like I said previously it is held in place by push in clips. Give it a good sharp tug and it comes off. or you can pop it off using a pry bar or screw driver if your careful to protect your cabinets.

after you pull off trim kit, how do you get the microwave out? I can't see any screws but yet, it would not just slide out. I need to replace the light bulb, but have to pull the unit to do so.

After the trim comes off there are 2 screws in the front bracket , at the bottom, that have to be removed then the microwave slides forward. It will make sense once the trim is off.

Did anyone find a solution to this?? I am having the same problem at my parents house. I cannot remove the trim piece to reset the circuit breaker.

Wow, I'm starting to sound like a broken record. It just pulls off.

Here is a link to the install instructions MCES install You can see in the manual that it is just held in by push in clips.

My themador microwave's button to open the door is failing. How do I replace the spring

Thank you, John Grady.

There is a wrong comment by Jakvis. The correct one is below. The bezel trim does not just pull off or it will bend or break. Remove the two oven screws to the cabinet and pull the oven and microwave out together. Screws are behind the bezel.

John Grady is correct. We had the same issue and had to pull out the entire unit (oven plus microwave)

On a MCES microwave it comes off just like the instructions, I provided a link to, shows. However not all Thermador built ins are MCES units.

The MCES/01 also comes part of the triple oven/microwave/warming drawer combo. It comes as one piece. You must remove the complete assembly to get to the fasteners that hold it in. The trim on some models snaps on, but not on all.

Good info! Bought the $34 bulb so had to go all in on this one! Switched of the breaker, pulled the triple drawer oven unit out (onto a big old speaker resting on it’s side to match the unit base height). undid the two torx screws at the back bracket holding microwave to stove below, unplugged microwave from stove, removed face plate 4 screws from sides, removed side brackets, finally lifted microwave off! Fought with various fasteners including the two tamper-resistant 7/64 Torx screws with the bit I happened to have for this purpose (best not to ask) so I could get inside and change the bulb. Surely voided my warranty which long since expired, and knew where not to touch to avoid residual energy shock/damage. Popped in the new bulb, then tackled the massive re-assembly job. anyway, now I have light again in the microwave—Woot Woot.. Would not recommend, nor repeat this any time soon! There was some satisfaction when the light lit up again, but for all the hassles, I’d adjust my kitchen lighting to shine in the nuker if it ever goes out again. sigh.

I did what Jakvis suggested and sure enough the trim came off—now my challenge is to get the microwave out 🤦🏽‍♀️

Ran into this issue with the trim kit. Jakvis is referring to the standalone microwave trim kit. What is in the picture is the combo unit, refer to the manual for MEDMC301JP. The trim kit is connected to the oven. You can tell the difference because the trim kits shown in the picture does not have the Thermador logo. The MCT30E that Jakvis links to is for a different trim kit and has the logo on the trim (check ebay pictures). Almost broke my microwave trying to follow this advice and prying it. The problem is I won't be able to lift the oven/microwave combo by myself. So now i'm stuck. My problem is the microwave fan is starting to die. I'd like to replace the fan without paying $300 (labor) + $150 for the parts. The fan is on ebay for $50.

Junne Bug, you are correct.

The information I gave was for the model number that the OP originally asked about.

The model you mention is a completely different build so it does not come off the same. For the MEDMC301JP you can see that the trim is connected to the M/W in the installation instructions. Here is a link to the instructions MEDMC301JP Install Instructions.

My recommendation, as always, is to look at the install instructions before trying to remove a product from the cabinet.

With your particular model the the entire oven and microwave combo needs to be removed from the cabinet to remove the microwave. Most appliance techs carry an oven dolly or a sturdy box to pull the oven out on to do this sort of work.
