Camille S Haymarket , VA November 07, 2016 Appliance: General Electric Free Standing Microwave JVM1790SK01 Contol knob "push in button" wasn't working We have a GE Microwave Convection Oven (Model: JVM1790SK01) The control knob would only worked if you push the button in at the 7 o'clock position. Needless to say, very annoying. I researched how to replace the mother board behind the control panel. I found a YouTube video showing how simple it was. Remove one screw and then just slide the whole panel up to remove. Then all you do is remove the wire harnesses from the board. Unscrew the board from the plastic panel and replace. Very easy!

Brad B Saint Petersburg , FL February 10, 2017 Main dial control no longer worked I first removed the motherboard from the oven in an attempt to clean the dial control switch. That proved ineffective so I ordered a new one. The part arrived quickly and was an exact factory fit. The complete repair took less than 20 minutes and the oven works like new. I also replaced the stirrer fan cover as the original had deteriorated quite a bit. Fast and easy repair, and saved quite a bit of coin.
