mirco wave is making a buzzing noise and will not heat..what could be the problem? its about a little over 3 years old
For model number JVM3162DJ3WW
PartSelect logo
Hi Donald, thank you for the question. Based on our understanding, we would recommend checking the high voltage diode, part number PS16219547. It is an electrical current control device inside the microwave. If your microwave's diode has become defective, it will not heat and you will hear a buzzing noise. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!

Why does it whistle?
For model number JVM3162DJ3WW
PartSelect logo
Hi Kimberly, Thank you for asking. A "whistle" sound coming from a microwave normally indicates a problem with the magnetron and it should not be used or plugged in to its power source until the Magnetron is replaced. If you are not familiar with Microwave repair, it should be installed by a repair man as the appliance can keep a harmful charge even when un plugged for a period of time. We hope this helps, good luck with the repair!

There is no power coming to the unit. Is there a simple fix, like a fuse?
For model number JVM3162DJ3WW
PartSelect logo
Hi Terri, thank you for reaching out. According to our research, the issue might be caused by the fuse, part number PS11773885, or the thermostat, part number PS2321365. The circuit might have tripped if the internal temperature have crossed the allowed limit. If these components are fine, the issue might be with the main control board, part number PS12299300. If you need help placing an order, customer service is open 7 days a week!

Microwave runs with the door open
Remove microwave outer cover. Turn on side & locate the upper & lower door switches. Better to replace in pairs even if one is ok. Remove the wire harness to each switch. Then replace switch and re connect the wire harness. Re attach outer cover
and test to see if that solved the problem. If so then well done!!

Microwave would turn on and count down, but not heating and not rotate turntable. Pressing door up would occasionally start heat.
First I disconnected the power and opened the door. Then I removed the top screws holding the top vent louvers, then removed the screw at the top of the touch pad. The touch pad removes by sliding up slightly then tilting top out. I unscrewed two screws holding the door latch assembly. Press the tab to remove and replace switch. Reconnect wires, reseat latch mount by placing top bracket tab in place first, allign and secure with screws. Reseat touch pad by placing bottom tabs in first, tilt forward and press up to seat top tabs, secure with top screw. Secure vent louver screws, plug in and watch your microwave work again.

Tray Glass Broken
I broke the tray glass in the microwave cleaning it so this was a no brainer. The best part of this was the PartSelect experience. I ordered the part on the 30th of December and received it on 3 Jan!!! I have used PartSelect before for fridge repair and had the same experience.
