Parts for Ge JVM1631CH003: 05 - Interior Parts (1) Parts

The Diode Assembly is an OEM part for GE microwaves. It plays a crucial role in converting alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), which is essential for the microwave’s high-voltage functions, including powering the magnetron to generate microwave energy.

Over time, diodes can fail due to electrical surges, excessive heat, or wear and tear. A faulty diode assembly can lead to inefficient or non-functional microwave operation, impacting its ability to heat food properly.

Symptoms of a bad diode assembly include:

• Microwave not heating food
• Sparking or arcing inside the microwave
• Burning smell or unusual noises during operation
• Microwave turning on but failing to generate heat

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

Replacement mounting bracket that secures internal panels or components to the appliance frame, restoring alignment and stability. Use this bracket to replace cracked, bent, or missing supports that cause vibration or loose parts. What it does:

• Supports and secures panels, trim, or internal assemblies to keep components properly aligned.
• Reduces rattling, sagging, or movement caused by a broken or missing bracket.
• Restores stable mounting after impact, wear, or stripped mounting points.
• Helps maintain proper fit and operation of adjacent parts by providing a solid attachment point.

• Disconnect power (and water/gas if applicable) before starting any repair.
• Basic hand tools required; remove adjacent panels or trim for access as needed.
• Retain original fasteners when possible; replace damaged clips or screws.

The Magnetron is an OEM component specifically designed for GE microwaves. The magnetron is responsible for generating microwave radiation that cooks food by utilizing electromagnetic energy. It works by accelerating electrons within a vacuum tube using a magnet to generate microwave emissions. 

Causes of a bad magnetron can include overuse, excessive cooking times, damage from arcing due to sparks, or general wear and tear over time. 

Symptoms of a bad magnetron include:

• Inefficient or inconsistent cooking and heating 
• Longer cook times required 
• Food not cooking thoroughly or remaining cold in spots
• The microwave making buzzing or humming noises during use

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

The Rotating Ring Assembly is an OEM replacement part for GE microwaves. It houses the turntable motor and platter that rotate food during the cooking process. Proper rotation ensures even heating and cooking of items. This ring assembly measures approximately 9 inches.

Causes of a bad rotating ring assembly can include a failing motor that prevents rotation or a worn turntable mechanism. Without functioning rotation, microwave cooking performance is compromised.

Symptoms of a bad rotating ring assembly include:

• The turntable not spinning during cooking cycles
• Loud grinding or buzzing noises from the assembly area
• The motor overheating or burning smell

This GE replacement part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.

Color: clear. Measures about 14 inches in diameter.

This is a binding-head screw used to fasten panels and components on compatible GE appliances. It provides secure, low-profile fastening where a binding head design is required for proper fit and alignment. What it does

• Secures panels, brackets, or small assemblies to prevent movement or rattling.
• Replaces a missing or stripped screw that causes loose parts or squeaks.
• Restores proper alignment for components that rely on the binding-head profile.
• Works where a shallow, rounded head and threaded shaft are specified.

• Use the correct driver size to avoid cam-out or head damage.
• Do not overtighten; snug until secure to avoid stripping threads or damaging parts.
• Disconnect power and follow all appliance-specific safety procedures before accessing panels.

The Thermostat is an OEM part for GE ovens. This critical component functions as a temperature sensor and controller within the oven, ensuring that the oven heats to the set temperature and maintains it throughout the cooking process. The thermostat prevents the oven from overheating by cycling the heat on and off as needed. 

Symptoms of a failing thermostat include:

• Oven not reaching the desired temperature
• Overheating beyond the set temperature
• Uneven cooking or baking results
• Oven temperature fluctuating more than usual

Causes of thermostat failure generally include age-related wear and tear, calibration issues, or exposure to extreme temperatures that can damage its internal components.

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

The Thermostat (Plate) is an OEM part for GE microwaves. This thermostat helps to prevent overheating, which can cause damage to the microwave and potentially pose a safety risk.

Over time, the thermostat can wear out or fail due to electrical issues, repeated heating cycles, or manufacturing defects. 

Symptoms of a bad thermostat include:

• The microwave not heating properly
• The microwave shutting off unexpectedly during use
• Error codes or warning signals related to temperature issues
• The microwave not starting at all

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