Parts for Ge JVM1630BH001: 03 - Open Cavity Parts

The Lamp is an OEM replacement part for GE microwave ovens. It plays an essential role in enhancing visibility within the microwave, facilitating users to keep an eye on their food without opening the door. This high-quality bulb is engineered to withstand the heat and vibration commonly associated with microwave use, ensuring longevity and reliability.

Causes of a malfunctioning Lamp can include filament wear over time, which is a common issue with incandescent bulbs, or damage from microwave vibrations or power surges. Regular usage can naturally lead to the lamp's eventual dimming or failure, necessitating its replacement to maintain optimal microwave functionality.

Symptoms of a bad Lamp include:

• No illumination inside the microwave when in use
• Flickering or intermittent light operation
• A sudden pop or crack sound indicating the bulb has burnt out

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

The Air Filter is an OEM part for GE microwaves. This filter is designed to remove grease, smoke, and odors from the air that passes through the microwave's ventilation system, particularly in over-the-range models.The filter measures about 5 inches wide by 7-1/2 inches deep.

Over time, regular cooking can cause buildup on the filter, reducing its effectiveness. Regular maintenance is essential to ensure proper air filtration.

Symptoms of a bad Air Filter include:

• Persistent cooking odors in the kitchen
• Reduced ventilation performance
• Visible grease buildup on the filter
• Smoke not being effectively filtered during cooking

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

This factory glass panel replaces a cracked, shattered, or missing original, restoring a clean, safe cover/viewing surface on your appliance. It helps protect internal areas from splatter and keeps the assembly looking and fitting the way it should.

• Replaces a damaged glass component within the original assembly on applicable models
• Restores a clear, smooth surface for proper appearance and function
• Helps shield underlying parts from spills, grease, and debris
• Common symptoms: cracked or shattered glass, missing piece, sharp edges, looseness/rattling

• Disconnect power before servicing; allow all surfaces to cool
• Wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection; handle edges carefully
• Support the panel/door during removal and installation to prevent stress on frames/hinges

The Vent Grille is an OEM part for GE microwaves. This grille is mounted on the exterior of the microwave, typically above the door, and serves as a protective cover for the ventilation system. It allows air to flow into and out of the microwave.

Causes of damage to the Vent Grille often involve accidental impacts, such as hitting the grille with kitchen utensils or other objects, or natural degradation from heat and grease exposure over time. 

Symptoms of a bad Vent Grille include:

• Cracks, breaks, or significant wear on the grille, which can compromise its ability to protect the microwave's ventilation system.
• Looseness or detachment from the microwave, potentially obstructing proper airflow and affecting the appliance's cooling efficiency.
• Visible signs of discoloration or damage, which could detract from the microwave's appearance.

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

This molded resin cover is a protective plastic shield used inside the microwave. It helps protect internal components and ducting from splatter and debris and restores a secure, finished fit when the original cover is cracked or missing. What it does:

• Shields internal components from grease, steam, and food splatter inside the unit
• Helps maintain proper airflow paths and a snug, rattle-free fit
• Common replacement when the original cover is cracked, warped, loose, or missing
• Visual cue: exposed internal parts or a cover that won't stay secured

• One resin (plastic) cover

• Disconnect power (unplug or switch off the breaker) and allow the unit to cool
• Access the cover location; remove retaining screws/clips and keep hardware for reuse
• Align the new cover and secure it without overtightening
• Ensure the cover is fully seated and not contacting nearby moving parts before restoring power

This tapping pan-head screw secures interior panels and components in appliances, providing a low-profile head and threads that form into metal for a firm hold. It's a direct-fit fastener for repairs and replacements. What it does

• Fastens panels, brackets and small appliance components where a self-tapping screw is required
• Pan-head profile gives a flush, low-profile finish that resists snagging
• Threads cut into mating metal to create a secure attachment without a nut
• Commonly used where sheet-metal or thin-frame fastening is needed

• One tapping pan-head screw

• Use the correct screwdriver bit that matches the screw recess to avoid stripping
• Start in a pilot hole or with light initial pressure to ensure proper thread formation
• Tighten until snug; do not over-torque — overtightening can strip threads or deform panels
• Wear eye protection when working with metal fasteners and sheet metal

This is a truss-head self-tapping screw used to secure appliance panels and trim. It replaces a lost or damaged mounting screw to restore proper fit and stop rattles or loose parts. What it does

• Secures trim, panels, brackets or small components where a low-profile, wide-head screw is required
• Self-tapping design cuts threads into sheet metal or similar substrates—no nut required
• Restores tight mounting to reduce vibration, rattling or misaligned panels
• Commonly used in refrigerators, ranges and other household appliances

• One truss-head self-tapping screw

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing and work on a cool appliance
• Use the correct screwdriver or bit to avoid stripping the head
• Do not overtighten—turn until snug and the part is secure but not distorted
• Replace with the exact part number to ensure fit and function

This control mounting panel secures the appliance control/console assembly, providing a stable mounting surface that helps keep buttons, switches, and electronics aligned for reliable operation and easier repairs. What it does:

• Provides a rigid mounting surface for the control/console assembly
• Keeps control board and user interface components properly aligned
• Helps prevent movement or vibration-related contact issues
• Common replacement for cracked, bent, or damaged control panels that misalign controls

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Typically accessed by removing the console or outer panel; keep fasteners organized
• Handle the control board and connectors carefully to avoid damage
