Door film had a burned section - needed to be replaced
Simple removal of old film - scraped one corner and it pulled right off. New film was a bit difficult to install as it had been folded in half for shipping. There was a large crease in the middle which made it hard to flatten out on the door. The adhesive was limited on the crease as well. I can still see the crease in the film on the door after installation. Dissapointing - but it works. I recommend the film not be folded for shipping in the future.

microwave would not heat
First remove all screws holding on outer metal casing of microwave. Next remove the back and bottom metal pieces. You will then be able to pull aside the outer casing so you can access the door switches. Check each switch with an ohm meter in both the open position and with the switch closed. If the ohm meter reads the same in both the open and closed position, the switch is bad. Check the top switch first. Replace switch and reassemble. Cheap fix for a costly microwave. Great customer service at Parts Select!

Opened door to get food put more food in closed door it wouldnt work
Everything worked on the display light inside worked but when you closed the door and set time it would start counting down but not heating nor would the turntable turn. Started reading troubleshooting chart and first thing I did was removed the cover and checked door switches and found primary door switch wasn't working so I ordered a new one installed it and it worked. Anyone doing this has to be very careful because of the stored energy in the capacitor is strong enough to kill.
My micro is only 2 years old so I was hoping it wasn't anything major.

Microwave missing a roller guide
When we bought our house, the microwave was missing a 'roller guide'. I didn't know that part even had a name, but your website made it easy for me to figure out. When it arrived, like the next day - I just unpacked it and placed it inside the microwave. Done! Thanks for the help!

Open door. Remove tray. Remove old roller assembly. Insert new roller assembly. Replace tray. Close door. It took more time and effort to unpack it than it did to replace it.

Turntable Stopped Working/Display Timer Would Countdown But Not Heat
With this model, you must remove the outer covering. Don't try to access the display unit from the front like I've seen in some other GE microwave videos. After removing the outer covering, the switches are easy to replace. They are very visible and easy to get to without taking any other parts off. You will see the door switches just behind the display board. Remove the switch and then remove the connecting wires to ensure you don't inadvertently brake a wire. You will need a tamper resistant star bit to remove 3 or 4 screws from the back panel. All other screws are philips head. I went ahead and replaced both switches (yes...there are two of them) and works like a charm. I saved an $800 microwave for less than $60 and know what to do if it happens again. Appears to be a common problem on this model. Thanks for others making a post...It saved me time and money reading others remarks. Good luck!
