To heat a cup of coffee, user entered "10:00" instead of "1:00". Mess! After cleanup, microwave ran, but would not heat. While running, it made 2 or 3 time the noise volume as before.

I went for the cheap things first. Ohmmeter showed one of the thermostats in the magnetron compartment was open. I ordered and replaced all three thermostats. Still no heat. I took the unit off the wall (aaarrgh!) and checked the oven cavity thermal cutout. It said 7 ohms. I tested by shorting the wires together, but still no heat. So, I ordered the magnetron and diode cable. When replacing the diode cable (be sure to discharge the big cap!) either I broke it, or it was already damaged. It came off in two pieces. The new diode cable was re-enforced with thick heat shrink tubing, to prevent such breaking. You need a very short screwdriver to replace the magnetron. Now, all fixed! ~$150. A new one lists for $2000, installed in the overhead. My wife thinks I am a genius.

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...

Microwave portion did not work, Halogen lights and fans did.

The primary door latch switch contacts were not closing properly. I broke the latch bracket while removing the switch. It is only a plastic clip that holds the switch in place. I replaced the switch and bracket. The Advantium now works in all modes.

Mica cover protecting waveguide was sparking

The part had to be rotated to fit then screw was replaced. Only tricky thing was that the screw was the security allen type with a small post in the center. Luckily I had a set of them from installing similar bolts on license plates.

Lamp Burned Out in GE Microwave
  • Jim from Houston, TX
  • Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
This is a GE Profile Microwave/Convection Oven that has the Built-In Kit. The microwave is really a countertop oven that can be placed in a cabinet for a built-in look. The removal of the shroud was easy but it takes two people to remove the oven from a high cabinet location. Once you get the spacer pieces off with a regular Phillips, you will need a Security Torx set to remove the screws around the rear of the cabinet. Once the cover is removed the bulb is easy to locate mounted upside down behind the control panel. One screw holds the bulb in place, so remove it, replace the bulb and reverse the assembly procedure. It takes about 30 minutes but will save you between $75 and $150 for a service call. YOU WILL NEED A SECURITY TORX SET that can be purchased at your favorite tool shed.

Powered Off completely

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 g rill 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.
