The Hood Damper Assembly is an OEM part for GE microwave ovens. This part controls the flow of exhaust air to minimize odors and smoke from cooking. This damper opens to allow air to vent outside during microwave operation and closes to prevent outside air from entering when the microwave is not in use.
Causes of a bad hood damper assembly can include mechanical failure such as a stuck or broken damper, deterioration of the linkage or springs that operate the damper, and blockage caused by grease or debris accumulation, which can impair its functionality.
Symptoms of a bad Hood Damper Assembly include:
This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
We followed the manufacturer's instructions about re-positioning the fan motor and installing the vent damper (easy). We constructed a duct system from the microwave to the outside of the house (challenging). We used 3.25" x 10" metal duct to start the system through the wall behind the microwave, where we added framing to reinforce a cut stud. We ran the duct up a closet wall and through its ceiling into the attic. We had to make an offset duct piece from 3.25" x 10" metal duct to clear a... Read more
The Magnetron is an OEM part for GE microwaves. The magnetron converts electrical energy into microwave radiation, which heats and cooks the food placed inside the microwave oven.
Over time, the magnetron can wear out or fail due to regular use, electrical surges, or overheating. A malfunctioning magnetron can lead to the microwave not heating properly, reducing its overall functionality and efficiency.
Symptoms of a bad magnetron include:
Chatted with a verified expert at justanswer.com (for a fee), he confirmed the parts I needed. AppliancePartsPros.com had them in stock AND they were 100% returnable/refundable if I didn't use them or weren't what was bad, even if I installed them! Where can you get that kind of guarantee anymore? Used some YouTube videos to learn how to support the microwave to get it down, & we moved it to the table, I took out the old magnetron and high voltage diode and replaced with the OEM magnetron and...

This thermostat switch is a temperature-sensitive safety device used in select appliances to open or close an electrical circuit at a set temperature. Replacing a failed switch helps restore proper temperature control and protects components from overheating.
This is a 25 year old built-in over-the-range appliance. Only previous problem was 1 failed door switch (of 3 total), replaced 2 years ago. First checked all 3 door switches with continuity tester, all ok. Had advice to check thermostat switches, which were all supposedly NC (normally closed), used same tester. Found one thermo that was open, ordered and installed replacement, but oven still dead. Used heat gun to warm the open thermo (while not installed) and using tester again, found that... Read more
This charcoal filter is used on microwave ovens to filter grease and other air contaminants during cooking. This filter contains charcoal for added filtering and is not washable. When the filter becomes clogged, it must be removed and replaced. If the air filter is clogged, smoke and fumes will not be cleaned, and the room will fill with odors during cooking. The charcoal filter catches grease spatters, and if greasy foods are cooked often, the filter will need to be changed more often. The filter should be removed and replaced regularly and anytime that it is not working efficiently. Removing the filter does not require tools. Pull the old filter straight out and push the new one in place.This charcoal filter is a silver metallic part that is sold individually. It is designed for use in microwave ovens designed by General Electric.
Well, after I accessed the place where the charcoal filter would be, I found out that there was NO CHARCOAL FILTER AT ALL! No wonder the circulating fan did not take cooking odors out of the room! So your website told me what to order, I ordered it and it was here in no time! So, the microwave was installed by the builder of this house and he never installed the filter. The previous owner must not have done a whole lot of cooking, but we do. So we will now have the air filtered when we cook and... Read more
This turntable motor drives the coupler and glass tray in your microwave, rotating food for more even heating. Replace a failed or noisy motor to restore smooth, consistent tray movement and reduce cold spots during cooking and reheating.
I replaced the motor by removing 5 screws from the bottom of the microwave and 1 screws from the motor. Very easy to replace, I didn't even have to remove it from the wall (I unplugged it just in case). Read more
Replace magnetron. Took longer to remove and disassemble m/w than to replace part. Above range installation. M/w was heavy- be careful. Read more
This is the clear glass lens that covers the cooktop light on select GE over-the-range units. It shields the bulb from grease and splatters while allowing bright, even illumination of the cooking surface below.

This hardware assembly secures designated components in your appliance, restoring a tight, rattle-free fit after service or wear. Replacing damaged or missing fasteners helps keep panels and parts aligned and operating as designed.
Removed the dozen or so screws on the microwave cabinet housing (top & 2 sides). Removed the 2 screws from the assembly holder hut bracket and replaced the assembly holder nut with a new one and re-installed the 2 screws. Re-installed the dozen or so screws on the cabinet. Finally re-installed the microwave with the 2 new 3-7/8'" long bolts thru the kitchen cabinet. Read more
This flat bolt is a factory fastener used to secure appliance components. Replace a missing, stripped, or corroded bolt to restore a tight, secure assembly and help prevent loosening, rattling, or misalignment during normal operation.

Bought these two pieces through Appliance Parts Pro - they matched exactly at half the cost. Shipped same day. Read more
This turntable coupler connects the microwave's turntable motor to the glass tray to drive smooth rotation during cooking. Replacing a worn coupler restores even heating and prevents the tray from slipping, stalling, or wobbling. What it does:
Unplug your microwave. Took the screws off of the bottom of the unit with it still on the cabinet. The whole bottom panel swung down to expose the turntable motor. I took the power cable loose (just pull it off). It was one screw to take the motor out. Word to the wise: DON'T try to take the plastic coupler off before the motor. Their is a tab that holds it in while the motor is in place. If you pry it up you will break it, trust me. ;) Turn the motor out of its housing and it come right out.... Read more

This 50-watt halogen lamp restores bright, reliable lighting in your appliance. Replace a burned-out bulb to see clearly while cooking and checking food progress, keeping the cavity or cooktop area illuminated as designed.
I removed the light bulbs and was unable to tell the difference between the two types once removed. I contacted Appliance Parts Pros to inquire which bulbs I needed and they able to verify the two necessary types of bulbs as well as facilitate an order in under five minutes. Awesome and convenient customer service. Read more
This temperature-control thermostat senses compartment heat with a capillary bulb and cycles the heating circuit to maintain your set temperature. Replacing a worn thermostat restores more consistent performance and helps correct underheating, overheating, and erratic temperature swings.
We ordered the Thermostat switch and another Thermostat. We removed the old Thermostat switch and replaced it with the new switch. The wires attached to the switch were burned out. We cleaned the wires and remove the damaged wire coding, and attached the switch. Within 20 minutes, our Microwave was working. Praise the Lord! We didn't have to buy a new Microwave which cost over $450. Read more
