The Door Interlock Switch is an OEM part for GE microwaves. It ensures the safety of the microwave by preventing the appliance from operating while the door is open. This switch is part of a microwave's safety mechanism, which includes multiple interlock systems designed to stop the generation of microwaves immediately once the door is opened, thereby protecting users from exposure to microwave radiation.
Signs that it's time to replace your door interlock switch include the microwave not starting or stopping unexpectedly, the microwave continuing to operate with the door open, or a failure to heat food even though the appliance seems to be running.
Symptoms of a bad Door Interlock Switch include:
This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.
Removed and replaced 3 door switches and mounting bar that holds switches plastic gets brittle with age and each switch comes out slightly different from each other, the chances of breaking a mounting pin is very easy. care should be taken when snapping mounting bar back into place to insure top latch and bottom latch locate properly insure bar is proper aligned when tightening screws their is free play in mounting bracket that could affect door properly engaging switches.

The Fuse is an OEM part for GE microwaves. It serves as a safety device designed to protect the microwave from excessive current that can cause overheating and potential fire hazards. When the current flowing through the microwave circuit exceeds a certain level, the fuse blows or breaks, cutting off the power to prevent damage or fire.
Common causes for a fuse to blow include power surges, faulty wiring within the appliance, or the use of microwave inappropriate containers that cause sparks. It is essential to address these issues not only to replace the fuse but also to correct the underlying problems to prevent future failures.
Symptoms of a bad fuse include:
This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
I read on line about other such ovens doing the same thing mine was doing, absolutely nothing! I even read stories of a major retailer telling customers to throw the microwave away. There's nothing you can do to fix it. After replacing a simple fuse that I ordered from you, the Advantium is as good as new. It took a grand total of 5 minutes to make the repair. The shipping cost more than the part, but it was all very worthwhile. Read more
The Switch Monitor Interlock is an OEM replacement part for GE microwaves. This safety component ensures that the microwave operates only when the door is securely closed. It prevents the microwave from running if the door is open, providing a critical safety feature to protect users from exposure to microwave radiation.
Causes of a bad switch monitor interlock can include wear and tear over time, mechanical damage from frequent door opening and closing, or electrical malfunctions that impact its performance.
Symptoms of a bad Switch Monitor Interlock include:
The Magnetron is an OEM component specifically designed for GE microwaves. The magnetron is responsible for generating microwave radiation that cooks food by utilizing electromagnetic energy. It works by accelerating electrons within a vacuum tube using a magnet to generate microwave emissions.
Causes of a bad magnetron can include overuse, excessive cooking times, damage from arcing due to sparks, or general wear and tear over time.
Symptoms of a bad magnetron include:
14 year old GE Profile microwave wouldn't heat, but had power. Read reviews here. Ordered triumvirate of magnetron, capacitor, & diode. Was hoping not to need the capacitor as this was an expensive part; and if not needed to return to AppliancePartsPros, which has been SOP. After watching a couple YouTube videos of microwave capacitors being shorted, I made a capacitor discharge tool ordering 24W 100K Ohm resistor and high voltage test wires w/ alligator clips from amazon. At the same time,... Read more
This replacement microwave lamp restores proper lighting inside the cavity or over the cooktop. A working bulb improves visibility while cooking and checking doneness, and allows the light feature to operate as intended.

This rivet assembly is a direct-replacement fastening piece used to secure appliance panels and components, restoring a stable, rattle-free fit and preventing movement caused by worn or broken rivets. What it does:
I replaced the stirrer fan cover and fan, which had some carbon and slight burn marks on it. It was difficult to remove the fan cover as it did not rotate. I had to pry it off with a flat blade screwdriver, breaking the plastic tabs on the cover (which was being discarded anyway). I then cleaned any visible carbon deposits and replaced the cover and fan, using the old stirrer fan holder as it appeared OK. However, I was unable to rotate the cover into the locked position so I could not insert... Read more
