Parts for Ge JEM25BF01: 01 - Microwave Parts

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

This interior oven lamp provides bright, direct lighting inside the oven cavity so you can monitor cooking without opening the door. Direct replacement designed for compatible GE ovens and ranges. What it does:

• Lights the oven interior so you can check food without releasing heat
• Replaces a dim, flickering, or burned-out oven light
• Restores safe visibility when checking racks, pans, and broiling items
• Fits standard oven lamp sockets used in many GE appliances

• Always disconnect power to the appliance before replacing the lamp
• Allow the oven to cool completely to avoid burns
• Remove protective cover or lens per your owner's manual before swapping the bulb
• Hand-tighten the lamp; do not overtighten.

This turntable motor rotates the microwave's glass tray during cooking. Replacing a worn or seized motor restores smooth, consistent tray movement to help ensure even heating and reliable performance.

• Drives the turntable shaft/coupler to rotate the glass tray during cook cycles
• Helps promote more even cooking and defrosting
• Common symptoms of failure: tray doesn't turn, intermittent or jerky rotation, loud humming/grinding from beneath the cavity

• Disconnect power before servicing; microwaves contain high-voltage components—use caution
• Access is typically from the bottom of the unit; remove the tray and coupler, then the motor's mounting screws, and transfer the wire connections
• Align the motor shaft with the coupler and ensure the tray spins freely before reassembly
• Test with a microwave-safe cup of water to ensure smooth rotation

This microwave thermostat is a temperature-sensitive safety switch that helps protect the unit from overheating. When the preset limit is reached, it interrupts power to the affected circuit to help prevent damage and erratic shutdowns.

• Monitors temperature at its mounting location and opens the circuit if overheating is detected
• Helps protect internal components from excessive heat
• Common symptoms of a failed thermostat include: unit shuts off during cooking, won't start until it cools down, or has no power/no heat due to an open safety
• Replace if the original tests open when it should be closed

• Disconnect power by unplugging the unit or switching off the circuit breaker before servicing
• Microwaves contain a high-voltage capacitor that can retain a dangerous charge; only qualified persons should service and discharge the capacitor
• Note wire locations before removal and transfer connections firmly to the new thermostat
• Mount the thermostat securely and in the same position to ensure proper temperature sensing

• Disconnect power before attempting any service to avoid electric shock
• Inspect surrounding components (shafts, fasteners, seals) for wear before reinstalling
• Use basic hand tools; keep small parts and fasteners secure during reassembly

The Monitor Switch is an OEM replacement part for GE microwave ovens. Located internally on the turntable control circuit board, this switch monitors rotation of the turntable during cooking cycles.  

Causes of failure involve degradation of the electrical contacts from continuous arcing loads over years of use combined with vibration stresses.

Symptoms of a faulty monitor switch include:

• The turntable no longer rotates or spinning intermittently
• Cooking cycles aborting prematurely with error messages 
• Screeching or grinding noises emanating from beneath cavity
• Visible burnt spots on turntable drive assembly

This genuine GE switch is also compatible with select Hotpoint and RCA models.

The Microwave Door Switch is an OEM part for GE microwaves, designed to prevent the microwave from operating when the door is open by interrupting the power whenever the door is not securely closed. The door switch is an essential safety feature.

Symptoms of a failing Microwave Door Switch include:

• The microwave not starting or heating
• Running when the door is opened
• Unusual noises when the door is closed  

Causes of a bad Microwave Door Switch can result from repeated opening and closing of the door or slamming that can cause the switch to degrade or become misaligned, leading to intermittent or failure.

This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances. 

The Capacitor is an OEM part for GE microwaves. This component stores and releases electrical energy to help power the microwave's high-voltage circuits, essential for the proper functioning of the appliance.

Over time, capacitors can fail due to electrical surges, overheating, or degradation of the internal components. When a capacitor goes bad, it can affect the microwave's ability to generate heat and operate efficiently.

Symptoms of a bad Capacitor include:

• The microwave not heating food
• Unusual humming or buzzing noises
• The microwave shutting down or not starting

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

This Bracket HVC is the OEM mounting bracket that secures the HVC assembly in place, keeping related components aligned and reducing vibration or movement for reliable operation. What it does

• Secures the HVC assembly or housing to the appliance frame to prevent shifting or loosening
• Helps maintain proper alignment of adjacent components for consistent performance
• Reduces vibration and rattling that can occur when a bracket is missing or damaged
• Commonly replaced when the HVC housing is loose, noisy, or does not sit flush

• One Bracket HVC mounting bracket

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any work to avoid electrical shock
• Basic hand tools are typically required; handle metal edges carefully to avoid cuts
• Inspect mounting screws or clips and replace if worn to ensure a secure fit

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.

Color: brown. Measures about 8 inches in diameter.

This is a magnetron that is used on microwave ovens. The purpose of the magnetron is to provide the microwaves that actually cook the foot inside of the microwave oven. Use caution when replacing this part. High-voltage capacitors in microwaves can retain a deadly amount of electrical charge, even when they are unplugged.If the microwave begins making a buzzing noise and doesn't heat food properly, this part will need to be replaced. Use extreme caution when working with this appliance. Unplug the unit first.This particular magnetron is compatible with microwave ovens that are manufactured by the General Electric, Hotpoint, and Maytag brands. This part is sold individually and is sourced directly from the manufacturer as a genuine OEM part.

Turntable glass tray. Color: clear. Size. 11-1/2 inches diameter.
