EMO3000CBB03 General Electric Microwave - Instructions

After reading reviews that there was no power what so ever and a fuse replacement will solve the problem, I tried it. Replacing the fuse is very easy (and I am not handy at all). All you have to do is remove the microwave cover from the top by removing two screws, slide the cover to the left and pulling the cover off. Then remove the grill in front of you, by removing one or two screws. The fuse is in front of you, use pliers and be firm but gentle. Replacing the fuse is easy but it did not solve my problem.

I have replaced Handles on GE Microwave ovens before. The previous two attempts were much easier because the screws that attach the handle are easily accessible without removing any other parts. On this Model the 4 screws that attach the handle have their heads hidden inside the door assembly. Although you might be able to replace the handle without removing the door, I would strongly advise against this. On my particular model the door was easy to remove; I did learn from some on-line videos that there is a more complex version, which is why I rated my experience as 'difficult' rather than 'very difficult'. So, if you cant immediately remove the old handle buy extracting visible screws, stop and remove the door assembly. Don't attempt to pry the handle off, you could easily damage the whole assembly. With the door off face down on your workbench, remove the plastic trim from the inside of the door frame using a putty knive. Be really careful, this is held in by a few plastic tabs on each edge, and they are very easy to break. At this point you may be luck to have revealed all the screws holding on the handle. Remove any that are visible. If you can't easily remove the handle now, you are going to have to remove the metal shield that surrounds the window. This is held in with screws and more lugs. You will then reveal the last two screws that hold the handle in place. If you cant remember how to put it all back, it was probably a project you shouldn't have attempted! Good luck, this is appliance designed in part to completely confound anyone who attempts to repair without some prior knowledge of the assembly. If I hadn't found a few tips on-line I'm sure I would have wreaked mine, and had to replace the whole door assembly for $200 instead of a $40 Handle.

The advice on the site was helpful, but I did discover one additional point: the outside glass comes off with the outside plastic frame. Don't try and pry between the glass and the front cover.

Very easy! On bottom remove seven screws, drop panel, un-plug motor, remove two screws. Install motor in reverse order. It took less than 15 minutes.

Super easy. Opened the box and put the tray in the microwave.

Went on your website and determined the part needed with the symptoms described above. Ordered the part and when received did as your repair guidelines suggested. Removed screws bottom of microwave, dropped down bottom plate, removed the two prong electric connection, removed two screws holding in the turn table motor and replaced the motor. Reversed the process. Couldn't have been easier. Took about 15 minutes. Steve W.

Repair went exactly as described on line. . . Total of seven screws. . . Five to remove the trim and exposed the drive motor and two holding the drive motor in place. . . A magnetic screw driver would have been helpful but not necessary. Almost took more time to find the correct circuit breaker than time to do the repair.

Remove 2 screws, remove cover, remove filter, reverse proceedure.

change fuse still didnt work i saw enougher fuse put the new fuse in there old fuse back and it didnt work . it was easy to do but it didnt fix proplem lihgt bulb didnt change coudnt figure how to find were it went

After seeing that a replacement microwave would run at least $250 or more, I researched the problem online which included instructions on how to replace the motor and determined that the repair would be a somewhat easy Fix-It-Yourself project (and a whole lot easier than replacing the entire unit!). I ordered the turntable motor for under $40 at this website, it came within a few days. I printed the instructions from the webpage noted above and took them and a phillips-head screwdriver to the microwave, and I had the repair done in less than 10 minutes with my wife helping hold the bottom panel in place while I put in the 5 screws.

Dropped bottom of microwave, removed motor then installed new motor. Very simple.

I followed the directions posted by others - they were perfect. This was a very easy process. The screws on the motor were hard to take off because they were put on at the factory with equipment is my guess. But the process was very easy. The turn table is working. I still have the noise but now realize that is from the magntron fan, which I am not going to replace given the age of the microwave. At least my food is heated evenly with the table turning and I can live with the noise until I see the price I want to pay for a replacement microwave. Thanks all!!!

Found blowup drawings inside unit, which helped identify what I had to remove. Had neighbor assist in lifting unit from wall mount, unit slides easily from rails once top bolts are removed. Pay attention to where all the screws go as you remove them, some inside assemblies will have to be removed or loosened. A good guideline to go by is all black screws hold internal assemblies, the bronze screws go in the back side and the chrome screws go on top, sides, and front of the unit. I was able to lift unit back on rails without any assistance.

Every thing about the door of the microwave is snap together except the four screws that hold the handle to the door through outer and inner panels. You simply pry carefully the outer panel off. Remove two screws that become visible. The inner panel is not so easy. It will separate from the outer door and glass, but you have to be careful. Once separated, the other two screws are revealed. The glass slid out of the outer door on me. I finally got it back in and snapped every thing back together. Look for the alignment pins of the outer door to fit in the inner panel holes. The outer inner panel snapped right back it. The only bad result was I smudged the glass and now I have permanent smudges sandwiched in the door. I'm going to live with it.
