Parts for Ge JS998BK1BB: 03 - Control Section Parts

This mounting bracket secures the H.V.C. assembly or cover in place to keep high-voltage components stable and properly aligned. Replacing a damaged or bent bracket restores correct support and reduces movement-related issues. What it does:

• Secures the high-voltage cover/assembly to the appliance chassis to prevent shifting.
• Maintains correct clearance and alignment for high-voltage components.
• Helps reduce noise or arcing caused by a loose cover or bracket.
• Supports safe, reliable operation by keeping wiring and insulating parts in position.

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before starting work.
• Handle high-voltage components and insulating parts carefully; avoid contact with charged parts.
• Use the OEM part number to fit and orientation before installation.

Replacement thermostat that senses and controls the appliance heating system to restore accurate heating and stable temperature cycles, helping the appliance reach and maintain the set temperature. What it does:

• Senses temperature and signals the heating element or valve to turn on/off to maintain set temperature.
• Commonly linked to symptoms such as failure to reach set temperature, temperature fluctuating or cycling erratically, or continuous heating.
• Works as the temperature-regulation component in the appliance's control pathway to stabilize performance.
• Matches the OEM function for temperature control; use when thermostat diagnostics indicate a failed or inaccurate sensor.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting removal or installation to avoid shock or ignition hazards.
• Handle the sensing element and terminals carefully to avoid damage; ensure secure electrical connections and proper routing of any capillary or sensor lead.
• After installation, test the appliance through a full heat cycle to confirm correct operation.

This thermal cutoff (TCO) is a temperature-sensing safety device that stops power to the heating circuit, protecting the unit from heat damage and preventing unsafe operation. It's used in heating assemblies. What it does:

• Opens the circuit when temperatures exceed safe limits to prevent overheating.
• Stops the heater or heating element from running if a fault causes excessive heat.
• Common symptom: no heat or intermittent heating when the TCO has failed.
• Can be checked for continuity with a multimeter to confirm failure.

• Disconnect power before inspecting or replacing any thermal safety device.
• Locate the TCO on the heater/air path assembly per your model's service instructions.
• Test the part for continuity before replacement to confirm it's defective.

This 250V 15A safety fuse protects the appliance's line circuit from overcurrent. When the original fuse has blown, replacing it can restore power and help safeguard internal components from further damage.

• Opens the circuit if excessive current or a short occurs, protecting internal parts
• Common symptom: unit completely dead—no display, lights, or response to controls
• Blown fuse will test open (no continuity) with a multimeter
• If a new fuse blows again, another component may be shorted and needs diagnosis

• Unplug the appliance before servicing; microwaves can retain a dangerous charge—discharge the high-voltage capacitor
• Access the fuse near the line filter/control area; note clip orientation
• Replace only with the same 250V 15A rating; never bypass or upsize the fuse
• If the replacement fuse blows immediately, stop and troubleshoot the root cause

The High Voltage Diode is an OEM part for GE microwaves. This high-voltage diode is crucial for converting alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), enabling the magnetron to generate the microwave energy needed for cooking. Measuring approximately 3-1/2" in length, this diode features a banded side with a #8 ring terminal and a non-banded side with a 1/4" female quick connect.

You should replace the diode-H.V assembly if it becomes faulty due to electrical issues, wear and tear, or physical damage. Continuous exposure to high voltage can cause the diode to deteriorate over time, leading to malfunction.

Symptoms of a bad diode-H.V assembly include:

• The microwave not heating food
• A burning smell or unusual noises during operation
• The microwave shutting off unexpectedly
• Visible damage or burn marks on the diode

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

This replacement mounting screw is used in cooking appliances to fasten components securely. It restores a tight, rattle-free fit so panels, brackets, or burner-related parts stay properly aligned during everyday use.

• Secures appliance components to the chassis or assembly
• Replaces a missing, stripped, or corroded screw
• Helps resolve loose panels, wobbling parts, or vibration noises
• Supports proper alignment of mounted parts

• Disconnect power at the breaker; for gas units, also shut off gas supply
• Allow the appliance to cool completely before servicing
• Use the correct driver; start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading
• Tighten snugly without overtightening; replace damaged threads or hardware as needed

This is a replacement screw that can be used with many different types of household appliances. Screws fasten various pieces of machines together. They can also help to reduce the amount of vibration in the machine. If a screw is missing or damaged, it could cause a machine to stop working properly, or to vibrate more than it should.The screws are made from metal and will typically last for a long time. However, the threads and other parts of the screw can wear down with use. The screws could also become lost when making other repairs to the appliance. Replacement of the screws is generally easy, but it will depend on where it is placed.This item can replace certain screws found in various models of ranges, ovens, dryers, and microwaves from General Electric, Hotpoint, Whirlpool, and Kenmore. This is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced from the manufacturer. It is sold individually. Owners may want to have several replacements on hand in case they need them.
