Just recently fixed and my son broke it a week later...
My son said order it. It came a day later. Very cool. He took the door off and up to his room. No idea what tools except most likely a screwdriver. I asked him how did it go. He said it's good. Nice...

The door handle tabs that were screwed into the door broken.
I first removed the top vent cover by pushing upwards slowly as not to break the plastic tabs holding it it place. Then lifted the door off of the hinges. Laying the door flat, I then inserted small screwdrivers (eyeglass repair size) into the "Mask frame" to push the "J" tabs inward. Do slowly as they get brittle with age. Remove the 8 small screws holding the door assembly to the plastic frame. You'll see the 2 screws holding the handle in place. Remove them, install new handle, reverse process. About 35 minutes.

Glass rotating tray cracked and broke when cooking
This is the tray the glass cooking tray rest on and rotates the glass during cooking. The metal tray was installed upside down. The rotating glass tray was not properly installed. The oven was at a very high temp. and the weight of the utensil on the glass was not supported correctly. Result, big " pop " and broken glass tray. Note this is the second glass repaced. The first one dropped while removing it from the oven. It stuck to the bottom of the cooking dish and then fell to the floor. Pop, big breakage. Maybe you can learn from my mistakes.

I broke the glass tray
I'm writing because I have never in my life had such an easy time finding a part, ordering it, and receiving it! Your service is truly unbelievable. I still don't believe it and I experienced it. Nothing went wrong and it could not have been easier. Please don't go away.

Change a burnt out bulb
Opened the lid over the bulb by removing one screw. Removed old bulb; a bayonet type with delicate prongs. Inserted new bulb. Best to turn off circuit breaker toi the micro for safety reasons.

The handle broke off where the screws enter the handle
This seems to be a fairly common occurrence so I've repaired this multiple times, once a year on average. The on site instructions are clear. Lift the top vent area off so you can remove the door. Open the door all of the way, lift off of the bottom peg and pull from the top. Lay door on a flat surface and with a small flat head screwdriver, gently pry the frame up (part 1804, door chock cover). There are small plastic tabs holding this part: use caution as they break easily. Once removed, on the door assembly, remove the small Philips screws: push the plastic tabs back, one side first; this part should then slide out. Both door handle screws are the exposed. Remove these (probably holding the broken handle parts, use the small screwdriver for lift to remove parts). Place the new handle on the door and replace the screws. replace the door assembly, be sure to lock all of the tabs back in place, snap door mask in place, replace door.

Had preheated the convection/microwave oven to bake 2 frenchbread pizzas for 25 minutes. Placed aluminum tray on top of glass plate with pizzas. 20 minutes into baking the plate cracked in half. Why? Don't know. Never had before.
Unpacked glass plate from cardboard box and placed atop rotating spindle inside oven - done.

Broken Glass Cooking Tray: need replacement part
Took item from sealed box and removed protective bubble wrap. Placed tray in microwave, aligning tray with turntable sprockets. Perfect fit, perfect match! And the part arrived in three days and was very competitively priced. What more is there to stay? Will use PartSelect for other replacement parts. No brainer!

bulb burned out
opened the access door. It took some tugging to get the old bulb out, and is was awkward getting the prongs on the replacement bulb lined up and pushed in, but it was accomplished in about 10 minutes. You had exactly the right information on a change in the part number that was made by GE, and you shipped the correct bulb the same day I ordered it.Good job. N R Brown
