JVM1630WJ03 General Electric Microwave - Instructions

Just placed it in microwave

Lifted the door off of the pins. slipped the new door in.

Open microwave door and remove plastic cover running across top of the oven box by unscrewing 3 Phillips head screws above and behind plastic cover. (4th screw to the right is not related to this cover). DO NOT PULL COVER STRAIGHT OUT. Cover slides either right or left then pops out. Remove old filter and replace and reinstall cover. Filter lays at a 45 degree angle against metal tabs tilting toward you.

Others have covered the process, but I have one piece of advice. The glass must be FULLY inserted into the little tabs of the plastic door frame. It is a force fit. If you don't seat the glass fully into the tabs, the frame will be curved around the glass. The plastic will be stressed, and will very soon crack again near the bottom of the handle.

I found that any water soluble lubricant, applied with a cotton swab or small screwdriver blade into the little tabs, will allow the glass to fit into the tabs easier. I also stood the door on edge on a towel, covered the top edge with another towel and, very gingerly, used a small rubber mallet to seat the plastic rim down onto the glass. Scary, but effective. You can tell when the glass and rim are properly mated by looking down the long inner edge of the plastic rim where it meets the glass. It should be straight, not curved. Dress it with the rubber hammer until it is no longer bowed.

Wash the water-based lubricant completely off and out of the assembly, and finish up.

I have worked long years in factories, and I suspect that in the factory they have a press of some kind to do this job, and a jig to hold and align the work as it is assembled.

Just put in place and screwed the two screws in.

I was surprised to find that the turntable for my 10 year old GE Profile microwave/convection oven was not readily available at my local GE retailer. I ordered the part from this website hoping that my order would be filled. I received an immediate response from customer service and the part was on my front doorstep in under 1 week! I would order from this website again!

after reading another comment all I did was lift the old door off and replace the new one with help from my friend..we are both over 60s women and it was easy thanks

Check with Digital meter all connections.Find a Thermostat open loop.This thermostat is near the Megatron .

open microwave door remove 3 screws on top of microwave, slide top panel to the left and pull out top panel slide old filter out put in new one and reassemble

I had already removed the old grease filters. Unwrapped the new grease filters and popped into place. No tools were necessary.

I removed the main cover ( torx security bit required) and tested the magnetron, capacitor, diode and door interlock switches according to instructions found on the internet. The capacitor and diode tested good but the magnetron looked burnt and corroded on the tip. The magnetron I received was an exact replacement for the original. It was easy to replace the magnetron which arrived in 2 days standard shipping. I also cleaned the fan while I had access to the inside area. Hoping to get another 18 years use from the microwave!

Remove the ice bin.
Turn the ice maker selection to "OFF"
Use small flat blade screwdriver to open the plastic ears on the electic plug in connectiion
Use #2 Phillips screwdriver to remove the screw on the front left side of the ice maker
Pull the ice maker forward until free of the two studs in the left side rear of the freezer wall
Check to see if the supplied water chute is the correct size for your application, if not remove the water chute from the old ice maker and place it on the new one.
Place the new ice maker in the freezer connecting the slots on the left read with the studs on the left wall
NOTE; IF THE ICE MAKER DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE LEVEL HORIZONTALLY REMOVE IT AND CAREFULLY REINSTALL IT TO ACHIEVE LEVEL
NOTE: ENSURE THE WATER DELIVERY TUBE RESTS IN THE RECEIVER TRAY
Reconnect the electrical plug ( needle nose pliers may be helpful in aligning the male plug with the female plug)
Move the selector from "OFF" to "ON"
Replace the ice bin and close the freezer door

Used Google to locate parts dealers for GE.
Ordered from Partselect.

Part arrived a few days later and I easily put it in.

I thought the cost of this part was out of line but all others sold it for about the same.

I removed the microwave from the wall and observed where the sound came from, I then removed the part that was held by two screws, then I order the part on Part Select it took three days to receive the part and in 5 minutes I installed it.
