Pat February 01, 2016 for Model Number GE DMB Replaced turntable motor. It was turning fine then quit. Sent off for a new motor and it didnt work at all...checked voltage on the plug while running and only had 16 volts going to the motor?
1 Answer Hello Pat. Based on the information you provided, the board is bad and will need to be replaced in the unit. Read More...
Tom January 30, 2016 for Model Number JVM1440WH04 Well replaced the turntable motor but did not fix the problem. Thought it was the motor noise but not. I hear something almost like a timer inside the housing behind the touch pad area. Not a grinding noise but weird noise. How does that front touch pad cover come off and what do you think maybe making that noise. It heats well. Thanks. tom
1 Answer Tom, You will need to remove the vent grill at the top of the unit. Once removed there will be a screw that you will remove that holds the control panel on. Lift the control panel off and there will be a small access to behind it. The issue could be a diode that could be bad causing the noise. Read More...
Tom January 29, 2016 for Model Number JVM1440WH04 Hello, Built in microwave has become slower in rotating the food and making a little noise. Ordered new turntable motor from you but wondering how I can replace the small plastic piece inside the microwave that the turntable glass tray sits on? Does it just pop out? Thanks tom
1 Answer Hello Tom. Dis-connect power and remove bottom plate screws (7). Remove bottom plate and dis-connect the turntable motor wire. Remove the turntable motor screws (2) and pull the turntable motor. Re-assemble in the reverse order. Once you remove the motor, you can replace the plastic coupling inside the unit. Read More...
John G November 10, 2015 I replaced my ge microwave turntable motor with a new wb26x10038 , but the origional coupler sits to high, is there a replacement ?
1 Answer Hello John. Sorry, we can only recommend the one your model number calls for. Thanks. Read More...
Mike September 25, 2015 for Model Number JVM1650WB008 My turn table motor burnt up. One of the connections melted off. I do believe that this was from a cup of water spilling inside the unit and causing the short. What part number of motor do I need and do you think there is a bigger electric problem?
1 Answer Mike, The turntable motor that would be needed is part number WB26X10038. If there was another electrical issue going on then it would be in the control board but most likely is just a faulty motor that had a loose connection. Read More...
Avril August 24, 2015 for Model Number Sharp Microwave R330YS Just purchased a new microwave, left the rotating 'holder' under the glass turntable in the box, and have burnt out the motor. I have watched your video which makes it look easy. When I went to take the screws out of the bottom plate, some of them would not loosen and then found a sticker which said 'screws were not able to be taken out because self-repairs not recommended because of electricity danger. Do you know whether this is usual or maybe part of Australia's rulings? Also, there appear to be a number of generic motors around, do they fit most microwaves, or do you need a specific motor for each appliance. Hope you can help. Avril
Charles August 09, 2015 for Model Number JVM1870WF02 The microwave turnstyle isn't turning when the microwave is running. I looked further and the plastic piece that the microwave glass plate sits on snap off what looks like a post that would connect to the turnstyle motor. Would you recommend the part(s) that I would need to buy assuming the turnstyle motor is still operational?
Craig January 27, 2015 for Model Number GE spacemaker XL 1800 The Microwave turntable turns, but makes grinding noise. Does not heat up food. What might be the problem ???
1 Answer Hello Craig. 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...

Tampakaren November 21, 2014 for Model Number JVM1410BC001 I just ordered a new turntable motor from APP but I'm wondering if it's ok to still use the microwave until it's replaced. The MW works well, but the motor makes a grinding noise.
1 Answer TampaKaren, As long as the turntable is rotating there is no issue with using the microwave until the new one is installed. Read More...
