JVM230BL01 General Electric Microwave - Instructions

Very simple disconnect light socket unit from snap in power supply replace socket with bulb screwed in reattach & back in business. Your service in supplying needed parts was par excellence. Thanks again

The handle to my microwave came off in my hand. On inspection, I could see that the original worker had stripped the threads and/or split the handle on the bottom and super glued it as a repair. Either way, a substandard job had been done in configuring the original equipment. Once I had the part, I used a dremel tool and a very thin knife blade to sand and scrape the old super glue off the door--which took a while. Then it was a five minute job to put the new handle on using only a screw driver.

Microwave would not turn on. Lights and fan worked fine. Before the microwave stopped completely, it would turn the microware fan on even when door was open. I read the reviews and they were exactly the same issue that others were facing. Once I opened the front panel and got to the switches it was easy to figure out which switch was bad as it was the one that was soft (When clicking it). It was hard to take it out though (it seemed stuck). So, I used a plier to yank it out. I put in the new switch and everything worked just great! I would like to thank other comments that were left on the site to make my task much easier. Thank you (to the commenters on PartsSelect), you not only saved me money, but also ensured that I learn about the microwave more and give me the confidence that I could fix it.

took the old one off and put the new one on took about five min.

removed access panal, found soft switch as discribed on your web site. removed and replaced.

Just screwed in the new part with the old screws.

It was a very simple repair. I just had to secure the new handle with the two screws from the old handle. It only took about two or three minutes.

Remove light cover. Replace bulbs Note. Light bulbs are 40W,Too much heat for bulbs & sockets

Replaced.Your part cost 30% of GE's price.Thank you for the price and rapid delivery.

First the service was outstanding, from the time the woman answered the telephone and found the replacement part to the end of conversation was delightful. If you can believe it the estimated delivery date was quicker than estimated. Received the part and less than 5 minutes voila (like magic) the job was done. I would recommend doing business with Part Select what a find\Thanks again for great service

removed two screws (phillips)remove old handle. Replaced with new, trighten the two screws and then your are back in action.

Took screw holding lens cover out, dropped cover down, unscrewed old bulb, screwed new bulb in socket. Screwed cover back in place. This is the third bulb in this socket, the other bulb is original.

Easy as can be. Removed one screw on the glass cover, removed two burned out bulbs and reinstalled two new bulbs, reinstalled the cover and all is well now. The best part - my 'supervisor' is happy that she can see to cook again!

Because the microwave is old and the bulbs, I believe, had never been changed I carefully tried to unscrew the bulb. However, when I went to unscrew the bulbs the end of the bulb broke off and remained in the socket. I used a few different tools then remembered that sometimes a raw potatoe can be used to unscrew the remainder of the bulb, but to no avail. Finally had to unscrew the whole underside of the microwave to remove the broken bulb. May I suggest that you have the socket face away from the wall to screw in the bulb instead of the socket pointing toward the wall. You need to know yoga just to manuver the bulb into the socket.

Turn off main power bracker. Removed fan vent, removed control panel, disconnect leads to the three monitor switches. Replaced the secondary switch (top). Reversed procedures.
