Customer Questions and Answers for Sensor by Ge

Hello Theresa, I'm sorry but if the model number is actually WES1450DN1BB, there are only three parts cataloged by the manufacturer since it is classified as a RTV or Return To Vendor model. Because of this, we cannot pull any technical information and cannot determine what parts would be satisfactory to use in its' repair. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter.

Hello Paul, I'm sorry but this model has no parts listed by the manufacturer but the rotating ring, the glasss tray, and the owner manual. No other parts are shown to be available for this model.

Hello Cameron. Yes, it could be the fuse. You will need to remove the outer cabinet to access and test the fuse.

Hello Hollican. 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.

Hello Lorraine, This can be any of the electronic components inside the unit. I'm sorry but it will need to be lowered from its' installation and opened to pinpoint the faulty component.

Hello Sam. You will need to order WB27X10195.

Jay Cee, Your description of the work performed bypassing the open TCO) would indicate the 0802-KSD-100LC-0 is the culprit.. The part number needed should be WB27X10195 / WB27X10195. Here's some more help " The cavity thermal cutout is located on the top side of the oven cavity beside the exhaust duct. The cutout has a temperature rating of 212°F. The cavity TCO is not resettable.To remove the oven thermal cutout: Remove the outer cover. Remove the duct assembly. Disconnect wiring to the oven thermal cutout. Slide the oven thermal cutout to the left to remove it from the spring clip attaching it to the oven cavity."

The primary winding on the transformer should read approximately 450 Ohms resistance, the secondary winding should read 80 ohms resistance, and the filament transformer should read 100 ohms resistance. All of these are +- 10%. If all the readings are proper and in range, replace the magnetron.

Jeff, Unfortunately this is a countertop microwave in which GE only has 2 parts available, the turntable and turntable ring, available for this unit.

Hello Chris. We will need your model number to help you with this. Please call 1-877-477-7278 or post your model number with a new question on the parts page. Here is a link to help you locate it. http://www.appliancepartspros.com/modelnumber_locator.aspx
