General Electric Microwave Parts

This is the microwave's high-voltage capacitor. It stores and releases energy in the high-voltage circuit to power the magnetron so food heats. A failed capacitor can cause no heat, loud humming, or blown fuses.

• Works with the high-voltage transformer and diode to supply the magnetron with operating voltage
• Stores and smooths high-voltage DC in the microwave's power circuit
• Failure may result in no heat while lights and turntable still run
• Can cause loud buzzing, sparking, or a burning smell during operation
• May open the internal fuse or trip a breaker when the cycle starts

• Unplug the appliance; capacitors can retain a dangerous charge—properly discharge the capacitor before servicing
• Photograph wire routing; transfer leads one at a time and secure the capacitor firmly in its bracket

Includes 12 washers.

A replacement magnetron assembly that generates the microwave energy used for cooking and reheating. Installs in countertop and over-the-range microwave ovens to restore normal heating performance when the magnetron fails. What it does:

• Produces high-frequency microwave energy that heats food inside the oven cavity.
• Commonly replaces a unit when the microwave stops heating or heats very weakly.
• Can address symptoms like no/poor heating, intermittent heating, or loud humming from the oven during operation.
• Not a control or capacitor—this part is the microwave-generating tube and works with the oven's HV system.

• Always disconnect power and unplug the appliance before starting service.
• The high-voltage capacitor can retain a dangerous charge; discharge properly.
• Handle the magnetron carefully; avoid touching terminals or the antenna.
• Follow OEM instructions and safety guidelines for reassembly and testing.
