Judy March 28, 2015 for Model Number JVM1431BA001 Not heating, been suggested it is magnetron tube however when I type in model number says magnetron tube that I listed on your parts page is not compatible to this model.
1 Answer Judy, the magnetron part number WB27X10735 is the correct replacement listed for your model. Thanks! Read More...
Steven March 14, 2015 for Model Number GE Spacemaker JVM1331BW002 HI, When I turn the microwave on it sounds like its straining! it runs for about 3 seconds and blows the ABC 20 Amp fuse.I do not smell any burning ....Thoughts Thanks Steven
1 Answer Hello Steven. You need to test all the door switches in the unit. If all are good, then either the magnetron or the HV transformer are bad in the unit. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Bob December 30, 2014 for Model Number JVM2070SK02 The magnetron currently in my microwave is OM75P(10). I would like to know if the OM75P(10)ESHL is a suitable replacement part as they appear to be the same shape and size. However, I am not sure what the ESHL denotes.
1 Answer Bob, based on the model number you'll need to use part number WB27X10735 for the magnetron replacement. We can only suggest the parts listed in the parts lists from the manufacturer, sorry. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Keith. You most likely have a "high voltage" side malfunction. Transformer, diode, magnetron, Capacitor. You will need to be extremely careful if you decide to test the components with a multi meter, Very high residual voltage is present, so make sure you remove power to the microwave and short across the terminals on the capacitor. The magnetron should have a reading of less than 1 ohm resistance across the two terminals, and an "open" circuit between each terminal and chassis ground. The diode/rectifier should have a resistance reading in one direction only, no resistance, or resistance in both directions indicate a faulty diode. The primary winding on the trans former should read approximately 450 Ohms resistance, the secondary winding should read 80 ohms resistance, and the filament transformer should read 100 ohms resistance. If all the readings are proper and in range, replace the magnetron. Read More...
Kevin February 06, 2014 for Model Number Amana ALD10T Hello, I am working on a few Amana microwaves for the vending company I work for. They all seem to have magnetron issues. I can not find them or a replacement anywhere. The magnetrons are Daewoo RM259. Any help would be great.
Raj February 02, 2014 for Model Number JVM3670SK02 When turned on without putting anything inside, it makes sound like metal inside. No paint chipped inside. Is it Magnetron?
1 Answer Hello Raj. Check and see if the magnetron is arcing. If so, replace the magnetron in the unit. Read More...
Nelson F January 11, 2014 for Model Number JVM1630BB 004 The microwave is not heating. I checked the Diodes and Capcitator they are working fine. What elso could cause the problem? Because before it was working fine, until it started make sounds like a ZZZZ and then it stopped working. Now it doesnt heat anything. Also Nothing smells burnt so it isnt the transformer.

Mike L December 26, 2013 for Model Number JVM1650CB005 GE 30" built in microwave oven. April 2002 Has been in service for 8 years. Purchased new in 2006 by deseased father in law. no paperwork available. Has a burnt smell. Everything appears to be working except it will not heat anything up. What is the part or parts needed to repair this problem. ?
