Multimeter checked/confirmed switches, sensors, and fuse first. All good. High power diode was bad - Replaced. Still no heat but now loud "MMMMM" noise when running. This means either the capacitor is also bad and/or magnetron.

unplugged power
removed main black cover.
located part WB24X10047 and replaced

Remove the top of the microwave, regular phillips screws on sides, torque screws on back. Lift up back and slide off cover. Light bulb socket is easily detached and bulb unplugged and replaced. Slide cover from back lifted slightly so lip will slide into front of microwave, than replace screws. Be sure to unplug microwave before you start.

Googled problem, removed diode, checked with meter and it was open, ordered new diode, checked new diode and it read open, installed. Any way, it didn't work. Went and bought new microwave!!

Part just snapped into place and wires were reattached.

remov cover to check voltage and found problem at the interlock switch ohm the switch and found it was open replace both switches it work fine now

Removed broken assembly and set the new assembly in place

Replaced the fuse. Result; did not fix the problem.

Just to replace it as it was just a plate.

bought a fuse but that didn't solve the problem. Guess I need a new microwave

I just dropped the part and we were good to go! When mamas happy I'm happy!!!!!!

After reading reviews that there was no power what so ever and a fuse replacement will solve the problem, I tried it. Replacing the fuse is very easy (and I am not handy at all). All you have to do is remove the microwave cover from the top by removing two screws, slide the cover to the left and pulling the cover off. Then remove the grill in front of you, by removing one or two screws. The fuse is in front of you, use pliers and be firm but gentle. Replacing the fuse is easy but it did not solve my problem.

Open the microwave and remove the glass turntable and rotating ring assembly. Close the door and flip the unit upside down. Remove screws that are used to attached the bottom cover of the microwave (you will not be able to remove one of them because it is a brad or some other type of screw...no worries...not necessary to remove). Remove one screw that holds the synchronous motor in place and unplug it. Plug in the new one, align it with the notch and screw hole and re-insert the screw that holds the synchronous motor in place. Re-attach the screws that hold the bottom in place and turn the unit right side up. Inserted new rotating ring assembly onto stem of new synchronous motor. Put the glass turntable back in place. Plug in the unit and wait about 15 seconds for it to get to the point where the message on the display instructs you to set the time. After you do that, you are ready to test the unit.

After contacting GE support I realized the only interest they had in helping me was to recommend sending a $$$ technican to diagnose the problem. I decided to go to the Sears Parts select website.to see if others were experiencing the noise me microwave was making. After reading through others posting on the subject I decided to purchase the Synchronous Motor. While waiting for the part to come I decided to lubricate the hub of the spides that rotates the plate with white Lithium grease. After a couple of times utilizing the microwave noise went away so whn the part arrived at me home I put it in a drawer just incase I need it a some future date. Hope that someone else finds this information useful. "The Crafty Dodger in Houston"
