After picking up glass from one end of the trailer to the other, this thing must have exploded because we are still finding glass!
1.) Open microwave door
2.) Insert Glass Tray

Now if it was that easy to replace the ground off fiberglass on my end cap!

I needed to acquire and install a mounting plate for an over the range microwave
I attached the mounting plate to the wall as directed in the installation instructions which I had downloaded from GE. This procedure took 45 minutes to complete. I was then able to mount the microwave.

When door was opened, the microwave would turn on.
Looked on line and found a you tube that said to check the door micro switches (there are three of them. Found one of the switches had an actuator that was stuck down. I got the actuator working but problem was still present. Another you tube showed how to repair the contacts in the switch and that solved the problem. however the plastic piece that holds the switches was broken and would not hold the switches securely. Ordered that piece and a new switch. Remove the vent plate on top (one phillips) and the control panel (one phillips). The switch holder is held in place with 2 phillips and is a little tricky to get it out and undo the wires. Once out, it's just a matter of putting the switches into the new holder and reinstalling it. Google the model number and the problem and there's virtually a you tube to repair ANYTHING.

Broken glass turntable
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!

microwave fan will not shut off when door is closed.
Slide thin blade between black plastic cover and microwave door frame and pry up gently to release snap in tabs for the top. They are about 8 inches from each side of the door lengthwise. Same for bottom, except pry down. Next pry outward at each end with blade between the black plastic frame and door frame to release snap in tabs. Doing this may take a bit of jiggle work and be gentle, this frame is fragile. Next there are 5 small phillips screws behind this frame to be removed. 2 bottom 2 top and 1 by door handle. When screws are loosened keep phillips driver holding the screw in, then cup your hand under each screw and catch them when removing them to prevent screws hitting the floor and bouncing to lostville. Next use the thin blade to pry door outer shell from door frame partially. Insert blade between metal frame and plastic shell of door approx. 4 inches from end lengthwise and pry up to release snap in tabs. Repeat for bottom except pry down. The door may separate at handle end now; if not insert blade vertically at handle end about 3 inches from top between metal frame and plastic door shell and pry out and again about 3 inches lower. Use fingers to pry handle end of door apart far enough to see the spring holding the latch. Use fingers or small needlenose pliars to undo spring then slide up plastic latch and remove. Place old spring onto hook in the middle of the new latch, position new latch with latch arms with circles pointing downward back onto metal frame with upper and lower latch guides hooking into metal frame. Push latch down and reconnect spring to metal hook in door frame. Slide new latch up and down a little bit to ensure proper operation. Next squeeze metal frame and outer door shell together until you hear the snap ins snap close. Next put a small bit of wax on end of phillips driver to hold the small screws and reinstall them. Next insert the end of the black plastic frame towards the hinges first into the door then rest the black plastic frame lightly against the microwave door. Press against the top back corner about 4 inches from the hinges and squeeze together the door and the frame. It will make snap sound then repeat for bottom corner. Next squeeze together about 4 inches from handle end at top then bottom to hear snap sound. Finally squeeze the vertical part together behind the handle and make sure black plastic frame is flush with metal door frame and you are done. Again these parts are fragile so take your time.

Received damaged parts
The first holder locker was shipped in a soft envelope and was damaged in shipping. I ordered a second holder locker with instructions to ship in a hard container and mentioned what happened to the first holder locker. The second holder locker was shipped also in a soft envelope and was received damaged.

I notified customer service and have yet to receive a response.

I now have the part on order with a local company.

Holder bracket broken so Door swithch could not be activated
Part arrived next day! Thank you Parts Select. Holder bracket on older GE microwave was broken so MW would not start because door latch did not activate door switch. Removed front panel unplugged all the wiring (after I had taken a picture) to gain access to the holder bracket. Unplugged the three door switches. Removed two screws that held the holder bracket. Installed three new door switches into the new holder bracket. Positioned the bracket behind the frame and screwed back in the two screws. Snapped in this seven wire attachments, set the control panel back in the microwave and secured it with two screws. I only needed one screwdriver and one needle nose plier to remove the wire attachment from a door switch which made it easier to remove. 40 minutes.

installed new kitchen cabinets
the problem was the mounting bracket that was installed when the house was built ,was not the bracket that came with the microwave. It was used to step the microwave out 3" in front of the other cabinets for the style that they were using then. so when I was installing the new cabinets I didn't want that style, so I ordered the original mounting bracket. It was a perfect fit and the install went great

Changing door switch
When removing a non-working door switch, you will see a hooked piece of plastic on the holder locker that looks like a latch. If you try to pull it back in order to either remove the bad switch or install a good one, it will likely break. Instead, you need to pivot the switch (It pivots on a little post which is fitted into a hole at the corner of the switch) out of position so that it is not held back by the 'latch'. Then lift the switch out. If you have to use lots of force anything, you're doing something wrong. Reverse all this when installing the new switch.
