JNM1541LP2CS General Electric Microwave - Instructions

This repair was easy and could be done by anyone. If you undertake to do this replacement, remember to slowly bend the medal tabs back that hold the lens. Handled roughly these tabs could break off.

This repair can be don in under 5 minutes, easily !!

The tray fit perfectly. Thank you.

thank you for the video--very clear, responsible, applicable although the illustration was not exactly of our kind of light. the bulb was exactly like the one Hotpoint used in its microwave made in 1989! I will come back to you for parts in the future. (You have the model # from my original order.)

Removed the control panel, one screw at the top. Removed 2 screws on the door switch holder and removed the door switch. VERY EASY.

The smart board has the display unit.

PULL THE POWER CORD PLUG

1. Remove the upper grill which is three screws across the top and slide the plastic vent piece to the left.

2. Remove control panel. Remove 2 screws on top of control panel. One is to the upper left and one is down inside the grill across the top. Slide the control panel up a small amount and pull top away from microwave.

3. Remove wire connections from the smart board and ground wire from the control panel. Some have clips to push to release.

4. Set control panel on table. Remove ribbon cable gently pulling it out of the plastic connection. Remove three screws holding smart board to the control panel and swap in the new one. Gently push the ribbon cable back into the plastic connector.

5. Reinstall in reverse order.

Last week I removed the glass cover that was held in by one screw and removed the burnt out light bulb. I ordered the bulb and left the glass cover off until the bulb arrived. I had to wait until this evening to put the glass cover back on and fasten the screw because I have a window right next to the oven and the sun streaming in made it too difficult for me to see how to put the glass back in and replace the screw.

Removed difuser (one screw), removed old bulb, screwed in new bulb, replaced difuser.

pluged wires back on ,placed lamp holder and bulb back and replaced screws

Replaced the sockets, lens and bulbs. The first time the new bulb was touching the lens and the heat broke the lens and burnt out the bulb. The second time I adjusted the socket so that the bulb does not touch the lens.

Impressed by how quickly the parts arrived after the order was submitted. Two days.

Thank you.

Screwed in new bulb.

Tyring to get bulb out i ruined the light socket. Unscrewed the bottom cover of microware. Took out screw holding light socket, removed wires to socket with pliers, intsalled new socket. It was a piece of cake and the part was a perfect match.

Removed one screw, installed new lense in lense frame, rescrewed. Done.

Simple. The parts came instantly. The glass was too big so I had it cut to size. I unscrewed the fixture with a screw driver replaced the bulb and slipped the glass cover into the frame and screwed the whole assembly in.

Replaced glass in frame and replaced lights
