Parts for Ge JNM3184DP8BB: Interior Parts (1) Parts

The Cooking Tray is an OEM part for GE microwaves. This tray sits on the turntable in the microwave and holds the food items being heated or cooked, allowing for even rotation and uniform cooking.

Causes of a bad cooking tray can include cracks or breaks from heavy use, exposure to extreme temperatures, or accidental drops.  

Symptoms of a bad cooking tray include:

• Cracks or chips on the tray
• Difficulty in rotating or the tray not rotating at all
• Unstable placement of food items
• Uneven cooking results

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

The Turntable Ring Assembly is an OEM part compatible with GE microwaves. It consists of the circular ring component that houses the turntable mechanism. This assembly is crucial for rotating food evenly during the microwave cooking cycle.

Causes of a bad turntable ring assembly can include wear and tear from years of use, damage from spilled or baked-on food remnants, or cracks/breaks from accidental impact. 

Symptoms of a bad assembly include:

• The turntable no longer spins or rotates unevenly
• Excessive noise or grinding sounds coming from beneath the turntable 
• Cracks or breaks in the plastic ring housing

This GE replacement part will restore optimized cooking performance by enabling even heat distribution. It is designed to directly replace the original component. This OEM part is also compatible with some Kenmore microwaves. Maintaining your microwave includes periodic replacement of consumable parts like the turntable ring.
 

This AC synchronous motor powers the microwave's rotating mechanism—such as the mode stirrer or, on some models, the turntable—to circulate energy for more even cooking. Replacing a noisy, seized, or non-turning motor restores smooth rotation and consistent heating.

• Provides steady, low-speed rotation to drive the internal stirrer or turntable
• Promotes more uniform heating by distributing microwave energy
• Common symptoms of a failing motor: uneven heating, rattling/grinding from the cabinet, or the rotating component not turning
• Direct replacement for the original synchronous drive motor

• Disconnect power before servicing; microwaves contain high-voltage components that can retain a charge
• Access and location vary by model; remove the outer cover/grille to reach the motor
• Note shaft orientation and transfer any coupler; reuse existing mounting hardware
• Do not operate the unit with covers removed; after reassembly, test with a microwave-safe cup of water

The Turntable Shaft is an OEM part for GE built-in and over-the-range microwaves. It acts as the central hub on which the turntable platter smoothly rotates during the cooking cycle. 

Causes of a problematic shaft can include wear from prolonged use creating play or friction in rotational movement. Debris intrusion into the central bearing assembly can also affect smooth operation over time.

Symptoms of a bad shaft include: 

• Turntable that no longer spins consistently or doesn't turn at all
• Grating or grinding noises coming from below the turntable 
• Imbalanced cooking results affecting some areas more than others

This GE replacement shaft ensures even heating by allowing for uniform distribution of microwave energy throughout cooking. Compatible with GE Profile, Hotpoint, and select Kenmore units, it restores reliable functionality before further troubles develop.
 

Magnetron with thermal fuse.

The Thermostat is an OEM part for GE  microwaves. It monitors the temperature inside the microwave during operation.

Causes of a bad thermostat can be simply wear and tear over time. Exposure to spills, dirt, or dust can also cause issues.

Symptoms of a bad microwave thermostat include:

• Food not heating evenly or completely
• Longer than normal cook times needed
• Error messages related to abnormal temperatures
• Potential overheating issues or damage due to lack of temperature control

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

The Diode Cable Assembly is an OEM part for GE microwaves. This part converts AC power to DC power, which is crucial for the microwave's operation.  

Causes of a bad diode cable assembly can include electrical surges, overheating, or general wear and tear.  

Symptoms of a bad diode cable assembly include:

• Microwave not heating food
• Unusual noises during operation
• Burning smell or visible damage to the cable
• Microwave shutting off unexpectedly

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

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.
