JVM3150DF1BB General Electric Microwave - Instructions

Another company said the new plate would arrive in mid-March, this company seemed to be faster so ordered the tray here, and it came in less than a week. I put the turn button back in the center hole, set the wheeled ring on the bottom of the oven, fitted the new glass tray onto the turn button.

Placed the new tray into the oven.

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 opened it up, found there is sparks on the diode when cooking, I replaced the diode first, still no heat, I found all the switches and thermal stats were normal, there is 120V AC input to the transformer, so I tried to make a good guess and bought a Magnetron from Partselect, after I installed the new Magnetron, there is heat and the microwave is working.

Simple fix. Prayed old off with flathead screwdriver. Installed new in less than 2 minutes.

Also installed capacitor diode cable from first parts order. Used Phillips screwdriver to remove parts and reinstall. The original latch board becomes unusable when removing parts requiring the purchase of a new board. New parts did not solve the problem so it was a waste of time and money.

Use a butter knife to pop small plastic pin out and turn to remove. Used the metal pinwheel from old one and placed it back up in the microwave. Never heard of this being possible, but it seems to happen per the website and many other comments.

Googled problem, removed diode, checked with meter and it was open, ordered new diode, checked new diode and it read open, installed. Any way, it didn't work. Went and bought new microwave!!

Multimeter checked/confirmed switches, sensors, and fuse first. All good. High power diode was bad - Replaced. Still no heat but now loud "MMMMM" noise when running. This means either the capacitor is also bad and/or magnetron.

removed cover over motor blew it out of leaves and dust. Removes 4 screws and removed piece ordered. The coil was rusted and not connecting. Changed oiece its working again

For this under cabinet wall mounted unit you will need two people to remove it. There are two mounting screws inside the bottom of cabinet. Remove the two screws and lower the cabinet. Place it on a flat surface and remove the 8 screws
From the bottom of the cabinet. Then remove the two screws from turntable motor. Reverse the procesdure and the job done. Don’t forget to turn off power. Good luck!

I followed the recommendations listed on the GE website for my model.

The cause of the fault was listed at 65% probable. I followed the suggestion, and yes it turned out the subject Interlock Door switch was my problem.

Working just fine now.

This repai me couldn’t have been simpler! I noticed that the stirrer fan cover on our microwave had melted areas. My husband suggested we just buy a new microwave. As the handywoman of the family, I searched online to see if it was a fix that I could handle. I ordered a part for less than $20 and fixed it in about 30 seconds! All I had to do was pop out the plastic screw, put the fan in the new cover, and pop it back into place!

Took control panel off . Unplug plastic protector took off old put and put new one on... very easy and quick... same alot of money by doing it mtself.

Turntable shaft was worn and out of shape likely due to heat. Simply remove rotating glass and damaged plastic shaft underneath. Replace with new shaft.
