Microwave removal from TaB 400

Does anyone have any experience removing the microwave in the T@B 400? Does removal of the appliance expose the wiring for the control panel? Is the microwave hardwired or does it plug in?

You end up with a cupboard space without a door, and an outlet in the back of the space, otherwise it is finished ply like the rest of the TaB cupboards.

Thanks for the info. Will pull the micro to see if/how I can access the back of the control panels.

Are you taking it out permanently or for another reason? We pulled ours to do electrical work and reinstalled it. Worked fine.

@NoVaGuy pulling the microwave is not going to give you access to the back of the control panel by the door, if that is what you are trying to do. The upper cabinets have solid sides, top, bottom and back, like a box.
The control panel by the door entry is set into a ply box chase, think hollow wall space. You can gain access to the lower part under the upper cabinets by removing the small panel on the left side of the sink, where the outlets are.
To get to the back of the control panel, switches, Alde control, etc, you need to remove the switch or Alde panel and pull it out, there is some slack,on the wires to allow them to come out a few inches, to get to the connections behind them.
Here is a shot of the cabinets during construction before the back panel is installed:
You can see the double partition where the control panels are located. The front section of this section can be removed from the front, screws under the little plastic caps. The back is a solid one piece section that covers the back of galley upper cabinets, which seems to be installed from the open back before the trailer side is installed.
