Microwave was not heating and not turning.
I unplugged the appliance first. It was an over the range microwave so I only opened the front part where the buttons are, and behind it there’s a set of 3 door switches, carefully took out the burned down one and replaced it.

Turn table did not rotate
Removed the original synchronous motor and replaced it with a new one. It turned on and rotated for about 1 day and stopped. I tested the motor for continuity and it was good. I need help in further trouble shooting.

purchased a home that the microwave needed a grease filter
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.

Glass tray somehow got a nick in the edge, a few days later it split while in use.
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.

No heat
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.

Original part had melted because I forgot to put a container of water in microwave.

Stirrer fan cover was melted
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!
