Parts for Ge PVM9179DR1BB: Control Parts

The Encoder Board is an OEM replacement part for GE microwaves, engineered to provide control over the microwave's functions. This component translates user input into digital signals for the microwave's main control board. It allows users to adjust power levels, cooking times, and settings accurately. 

The causes for issues with the Encoder Board can be attributed to electrical faults, such as short circuits or component failures, often resulting from power surges or normal wear and tear. 

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Encoder Board include:

• Difficulty in adjusting settings, which may manifest as unresponsive or erratic control panel behavior.
• The microwave starting or stopping unexpectedly, indicating a miscommunication between the user interface and the microwave's control system.
• Inconsistent cooking results, stemming from the inability to accurately set cooking parameters.

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

This control assembly with tactile dial operates the cooktop/oven/dryer user interface so you can select functions and set cycles confidently. It replaces a worn or unresponsive dial and restores reliable control panel feedback. What it does:

• Provides tactile dialing input for selecting cycles, temperatures, or settings
• Sends commands from the front panel to the appliance control board for normal operation
• Restores responsive button/dial feedback when original controls are worn or intermittent
• Addresses symptoms such as unresponsive or erratic control inputs and non-selecting cycles

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock
• Handle the assembly carefully to avoid damage to connectors and flex cables
• Basic mechanical skills required; access steps provided in the appliance service manual

This main control board is the electronic module that manages oven/range functions and display features so your appliance runs cycles, responds to control inputs, and shows status. It restores control panel responsiveness and timed operations when the board is faulty. What it does:

• Receives inputs from the touchpad/knobs and sends commands to heating elements, relays, and indicators
• Manages the clock, timers, and programmed bake/broil or cook cycles
• Can cause a blank or unresponsive display, failure to start, or erratic operation when defective
• Supports diagnostic and status signaling used by service tools (when applicable)

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before starting work
• Handle the board by its edges and avoid electrostatic discharge; use an ESD strap if available
• Installation typically requires removing the control panel or console; keep fasteners and wiring order documented

This LED module replaces the interior refrigerator light assembly to restore proper illumination inside the fresh food compartment. It provides a direct swap for failed or dim LED lighting to help you see food clearly. What it does:

• Replaces the refrigerator's interior LED light assembly to restore full, even cabinet illumination
• Commonly used when the light is dim, flickering, or completely out
• Connects to the existing lighting housing and wiring harness for a straightforward replacement
• Designed to match OEM fit and function for compatible refrigerator models

• One LED module

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repairs to prevent shock
• Remove the light cover or housing per your model's instructions to access the module
• Handle the module and LEDs carefully; avoid touching LEDs or circuitry directly

This electronic control board is the console assembly that manages oven and cooktop functions, restoring responsive controls and timed operations for compatible GE ranges. It replaces a malfunctioning or unresponsive control module to help return normal cooking control. What it does:

• Receives user input from the touchpad or keypad and sends commands to the oven and broil/ bake elements
• Controls timers, clock, and oven temperature regulation circuitry
• Commonly replaces boards causing unresponsive controls, error codes, or loss of display/clock
• Helps resolve intermittent operation or failure of oven functions tied to the console

• One electronic control board / console assembly

• Turn off power to the appliance at the breaker before starting any work
• Handle the board by its edges; avoid touching components or connector pins
• Verify the part number on your old board before ordering
