JVM1350WW02 General Electric Microwave - Instructions

As others had done, I unscrewed the top screw inside the door - used a flat blade screwdriver to pop out the molding on the inside of the door covering the lower screw - loosened the screw and took the old handle off...installed the new, snapped the molding back on - and done.

With many thanks to those who posted their experience and advice replacing the bulb, I was able to remove 5 of the 6 screws holding the underside panel and remove the socket which contained the broken off base of the bulb and extract it with needle-nose pliers. I had broken off the glass portion of the bulb trying to unscrew it due to the awkward contortion of my wrist-hand-fingers trying to grip the bulb inside the tight recess the bulb is mounted in. After concluding that I needed more information, I did a web search for 'Hotpoint RVM1435' and found helpful advice at partselect.com telling me to drop the bottom panel. Good call! Thanks everyone!

When I received the handle I was so excited. My husband was not home and I had read the instructions on the web site on how to remove the screws to replace the handle. It worked just like they said and was so easy, even for a 65 year old woman. Thanks

Since the job required replacing both the bulbs and sockets the unit was dropped from the wall. Used a towel and plywood to protect the range under the unit. Then these steps: Unplugged the power cable and placed a support board under the unit while removing three bolts from overhead cabinet. Next, removed support board and with a helper rotated the unit down and lifted it out of the rear wall mounting panel. Then turned the unit upside down, removed the bottom plate and unplugged the feed wires and two wires to each of the sockets. Next the single screws holding the sockets were removed and the sockets extracted from the mounting shells and new units were installed. When remounting the unit it was necessary to start all three bolts from the upper cabinet just a few turns and then tighten the center bolt completely first.

Removed three screws from the top front cover and slide it out and following I removed the touch panel and the housing that holds the switches and replaced the bad one.

Two screws had to be removed. One exposed, the other was underneath the plastic band. Use a butter knife or thin flathead screwdriver to remove plastic band. Remove both screws and replace broken handle with new handle. Re-attach the plastic band. this very easy. My suggestion to eliminate breaking this handle at the bottom, is to grip this handle firmly at the top, when opening the microwave door.

Other descriptions accurately describe how to replace the handle.

1) Opened the door and removed inner face frame. Removed the two screws for handle, slid out the end slid out the glass. Snapped the parts inplace re-installed the glass, screwed in new handle and done! Easy deal!

Because of a previous repair story about the ease of repair of a broken door handle, I ordered the part and repaired it my self, saving the repair charge
