Jvm3160df2ww Microwave Parts

If your microwave won't start or the fan won't shut off, a worn door latch is likely the cause. This replacement part secures your door properly.

If your microwave won't turn on, trips the circuit breaker, or has an electrical smell, the fuse may be blown. Quick fix behind the control panel.

Turntable stopped rotating? This microwave turntable coupler connects the motor to the glass tray. Simple pull-up removal makes this a quick DIY fix.

The Vent Grille is an OEM part for GE microwaves. The vent grille is located on the bottom or top of the microwave, depending on the model, and allows heat and steam to properly vent during cooking cycles. It features precisely designed vent openings to maximize airflow while preventing food or liquid from passing through.

Causes of a bad vent grille can include damage from high heat over time, accidental bending or warping from impact, or cracks or breaks from normal wear and tear.

Symptoms of a bad vent grille include:

• Reduced or obstructed air flow during cooking cycles
• Excessive steam or smoke escaping from the sides of the microwave
• Warping, cracks or breaks in the vent openings or frame
• Discoloration or corrosion of the metal grille

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

If your microwave stays on with the door open or won't power on when closed, this interlock switch lever may be faulty. Simple mechanical repair.

This replacement mounting plate secures internal assemblies to the appliance chassis, restoring stable support and alignment. It helps reduce movement and prevents loose or misaligned components for safer, quieter operation. What it does:

• Anchors and supports internal assemblies or housings to the appliance frame.
• Keeps parts aligned to maintain proper fit and operation.
• Helps reduce vibration, rattling, and shifting of mounted components.
• Use when the original plate is bent, cracked, or missing and causes loose mounting or misalignment.

• Disconnect power and water before starting any repair.
• Wear gloves and eye protection; the plate and surrounding areas can have sharp edges.
• Retain or reuse original mounting hardware unless replacements are specified elsewhere.
• Follow the appliance's service manual for removal, orientation, and torque specifications.

Microwave tripping breaker or won't heat? This thermal cutoff thermostat monitors temperature to prevent overheating. Straightforward replacement.

Microwave sparking or arcing? This waveguide cover shields the magnetron from food debris and prevents damage. Simple DIY repair in minutes.

Microwave won't power on after overheating? This thermal cutoff thermostat prevents damage by shutting down at unsafe temperatures. DIY repair.

This damper bracket secures the air damper assembly to the appliance, keeping the damper aligned for proper venting and reducing vibration. Replacing a damaged bracket helps restore stable damper movement and correct airflow. What it does:

• Secures and supports the air/vent damper so it can open and close correctly
• Prevents rattling or vibration caused by a loose or broken bracket
• Helps resolve improper venting or inconsistent temperature control linked to a misaligned damper
• Works as the mounting point for the damper assembly to the cabinet/chassis

• One damper bracket

• Always disconnect power (and water, if applicable) before servicing the appliance
• Access typically requires removing panels—watch for sharp edges and keep fasteners organized
• Bracket installs with mounting screws; verify damper alignment and smooth movement before reassembly

Microwave not heating? The high voltage diode converts power for the magnetron. DIY-friendly repair with proper safety precautions. Discharge capacitor first.

The Thermostat is an OEM part for GE microwaves. It acts as a temperature-sensing component that monitors internal heat levels and provides feedback to electronic controls. 

Causes of thermostat failures can involve deterioration over extended use under intermittent high heat stresses.

Symptoms of a bad thermostat include:

• Inability to properly cook or reheat foods thoroughly  
• Temperature readings malfunction triggering errors
• Magnetron shutting off unexpectedly mid-cooking cycle
• Cook settings not functioning optimally  

This OEM GE replacement is compatible with Hotpoint, RCA and some Kenmore microwave models as well. 

This magnetron is the microwave's high-frequency energy source. Replacing a weak or failed tube restores consistent heating performance so food warms evenly and cook cycles complete properly.

• Generates the microwave energy that heats food
• Works with the transformer, capacitor, and diode in the high-voltage circuit
• Failure signs include: runs but does not heat, intermittent or weak heating, or a loud humming/buzzing noise

• Disconnect power; the high-voltage capacitor can retain a dangerous charge—discharge per service information before servicing
• Do not run the microwave with the cover removed
• Handle by the metal body; avoid touching or damaging the antenna/insulator. Secure mounting screws and reconnect terminals firmly
• After reassembly, test with a cup of water to ensure proper heating and fan operation

This installation hardware kit provides the mounting fasteners and brackets needed to secure your appliance during installation, helping restore proper fit and stable operation. It's a small parts kit designed for use where OEM mounting components are required. What it does:

• Supplies the mounting screws, brackets and small hardware used to attach and level the appliance
• Replaces missing or damaged fasteners that can cause loose panels, gaps, or vibration
• Helps restore proper alignment to doors, panels or trim that rely on factory hardware
• Useful when reinstalling an appliance after servicing or moving

• One installation hardware kit

• Follow the appliance's OEM installation instructions and torque recommendations
• Disconnect power and water before starting work
• Keep small parts away from children and pets; use proper tools to avoid stripping screws

Mounting nut assembly that secures microwave components to studs or brackets. Replace if cracked, stripped, or missing to restore stable panel attachment.

A noise filter that helps suppress electrical interference on the appliance power line, reducing hum, arcing and radio-frequency interference for more reliable operation. Fits into the appliance mains to limit unwanted electrical noise. What it does

• Suppresses line noise and radio-frequency interference that can cause humming, buzzing or intermittent operation.
• Helps prevent electrical interference that affect controls, displays or nearby audio equipment.
• Used where power-line filtering is required to maintain stable operation of the appliance's electronics.
• Common symptom: intermittent control response, audible electrical noise, or interference-related malfunctions.

• One noise filter.

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing.
• Access may require removing a rear or control panel; keep track of fasteners and grounding connections.
• Replace only with the exact part number; ensure proper orientation and secure mounting.
