• Replaces worn, cracked, or damaged latch components that impair engagement

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before beginning any repair
• Remove outer door or access panel per OEM instructions to reach and replace the latch
• Handle plastic latch components carefully to avoid cracking; test door engagement before reassembling panels

The Thermostat is an OEM part for GE  microwaves. It monitors the temperature inside the microwave during operation.

Causes of a bad thermostat can be simply wear and tear over time. Exposure to spills, dirt, or dust can also cause issues.

Symptoms of a bad microwave thermostat include:

• Food not heating evenly or completely
• Longer than normal cook times needed
• Error messages related to abnormal temperatures
• Potential overheating issues or damage due to lack of temperature control

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

This nut assembly secures an appliance component to its mounting point, restoring a solid connection and preventing unwanted movement. Replace a damaged or missing nut to stop rattling and keep parts aligned for reliable operation. What it does:

• Fastens a panel, bracket or component to its mounting stud or bolt to maintain proper alignment.
• Restores a secure connection when the original nut is stripped, corroded or missing.
• Helps stop rattling, looseness or parts that won't stay in place.
• Works as a direct replacement to restore proper fit and function.

• Disconnect power (and water if applicable) before beginning any repair.
• Use the correct-size socket or wrench; avoid cross-threading when installing.
• Tighten snugly but do not overtighten — replace mating hardware if threads are damaged.

This lamp holder secures the oven light bulb and provides the electrical connection needed for interior oven illumination. It restores a stable socket for the bulb so the oven light turns on reliably and stays mounted. What it does:

• Holds and connects the oven light bulb so the interior light illuminates during use
• Replaces a cracked, melted, or loose socket that can prevent the bulb from lighting
• Stops intermittent lighting caused by a worn or failed lamp holder
• Prevents the bulb from rattling or falling out when the oven door is opened or closed

• One lamp holder

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting work to avoid shock
• Allow the bulb and interior to cool before handling the lamp holder
• Handle wiring and connectors carefully; match original connections and secure firmly

Stirrer motor

Replacement mounting bracket that secures internal panels or components to the appliance frame, restoring alignment and stability. Use this bracket to replace cracked, bent, or missing supports that cause vibration or loose parts. What it does:

• Supports and secures panels, trim, or internal assemblies to keep components properly aligned.
• Reduces rattling, sagging, or movement caused by a broken or missing bracket.
• Restores stable mounting after impact, wear, or stripped mounting points.
• Helps maintain proper fit and operation of adjacent parts by providing a solid attachment point.

• Disconnect power (and water/gas if applicable) before starting any repair.
• Basic hand tools required; remove adjacent panels or trim for access as needed.
• Retain original fasteners when possible; replace damaged clips or screws.

This cover-damper is the replacement plastic cover that fits over the refrigerator air damper to help direct cold air between compartments for more consistent cooling. Replaces a cracked, broken or missing damper cover. What it does:

• Protects the damper assembly and helps channel airflow from the evaporator to the fresh-food and freezer compartments
• Restores proper air direction when a broken cover causes uneven temperatures or poor cooling
• Works with the damper to reduce drafts and improve compartment temperature balance
• Simple, passive part that mounts to the damper housing

• One cover-damper

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Remove interior panels or shelves as needed to access the damper housing; handle plastic clips gently to avoid breakage
• Verify fit and orientation against the existing part before finalizing installation
• If the damper motor or actuator is damaged or the issue persists after installing this cover, inspect the full damper assembly

This motor ventilation part is the replacement vent fan motor that moves air through the appliance for proper cooling and exhaust. Replacing a failed vent motor restores airflow and helps the appliance maintain safe operating temperatures. What it does

• Spins the ventilation fan to move air for cooling or exhaust
• Helps prevent overheating by promoting proper airflow
• Can stop symptoms such as reduced or no exhaust, weak airflow, or abnormal motor noise
• Works as the airflow drive component in the appliance's ventilation system

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Basic mechanical skill and common tools are usually required; refer to the service manual for disassembly instructions

This main control board is the appliance's primary electronic control module, managing cycles, sensors, and user commands to restore proper electronic operation. Use this board to replace a failed or unresponsive control assembly. What it does:

• Controls timing, cycle selection, and electronic functions based on user inputs
• Interprets sensor signals and sends commands to components
• Can resolve symptoms like unresponsive controls, error codes, or intermittent operation
• Replaces a damaged or non-functioning PCB to return electronic control to the appliance

• Disconnect power before service to avoid shock or damage
• Handle the board by edges; avoid static discharge and contact with circuitry
• Verify connector orientation and secure all wiring before restoring power

This washered screw secures panels and internal components where a combined screw-and-washer fastener is required, restoring proper fit and stopping movement or rattling. Simple replacement with the correct fastener keeps assemblies aligned and stable. What it does

• Secures panels, brackets or components where a washered screw is specified
