The Fuse is an OEM part for GE microwaves. It serves as a safety device that protects the microwave by breaking the circuit if there is a power surge or electrical fault. This helps prevent damage to the microwave's components and ensures safe operation.

You should replace the fuse if it becomes blown or damaged. Causes of a bad fuse can include power surges, electrical faults, or issues within the microwave such as overheating. These factors can cause the fuse to blow, rendering the microwave inoperable.

Symptoms of a bad fuse include:

• The microwave not turning on or suddenly losing power
• No response from the microwave’s control panel
• The microwave stopping mid-cycle without completing the cooking process

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