Our GE microwave went completely out this a.m...watched your video, found the switch and fuse and got it working by noon...Thank you!!

Thank you. I really appreciate people for posting how to videos. It has saved me a ton of money. I wish you good fortune in all that you do!

Thanks for the clear instructions for disassembling. I found a total of three switches associated with the door. I was able to tweak the door alignment and switch assembly screw so door light now turnes off and unit now starts.

Thank you for this video! My Parents almost bought a brand new microwave. We followed your video and fixed the problem!

Yes I did replace that switch because of the EXACT problem. What ended up happening is it blew AGAIN. Which means there is another issue or I bought a less superior switch. The replacement lasted one day. I'm going to look at the specs on the replacement I used to see if it is still that switch. “Thank You!” for sharing this.

Thank you! Currently I have the same problem ; I have to work on it soon

Great video man, plain and simple. Appreciated Brother.

You saved me a lot of time, this was exactly what my issue was. Thanks a lot brother

Thanks man. I don't know about the switch, but that I changed a fuse and VOLA! So far so good.

Thank you for your Efforts and Sharing 👍👍

I gave you a thumbs up on the dong man joke alone. I just bought a brand new one. Installed it and the panel doesn't light up. I'm just going to take it down and take it back to Home Depot, but thanks for the laugh. I needed it.

Thank you so much! My GE microwave died after a couple years and won’t turn on at all. Will give this a try! Wish me luck!

Thank you, You saved our popcorn for Movie Night.

Thank you. Great video.

Cannot use a 32v 20 amp auto parts fuse, need 250v, 20 amp microwave appliance shielded fuse (Ace Hardware). Read the description on the old fuse.

You’re the man! Thank you so much! Saved me a couple hundred dollars 🤙

good job... thanks... the exact problem with my unit!!!!

Thanks so much for this, exactly our same problem and a relatively easy repair.

Thank you! Very helpful!

Thank you this helped a lot.

Thanks, going to try this.

Brand new appliances in my brand new home. All of sudden the microwave goes out as of this week, but it gave me a sign last week Saturday that something was getting ready to happen. I assumed that the entire microwave had to be taken out the wall, but after seeing your video I'm so worried now.

Please be aware that some of the door switches are normally open and some normally closed, if you do order them. I ended up shimming with paper next to each switch. I then put a small amount of glue there so they can't wiggle. Once they were all solidly in place it worked fine. I had to temporarily take out the plastic part the switches were held, to glue them in. A volt meter and a GF helps to test opening and closing the door. I also used nail polish to build back up where the middle switch wore down some.

Where do you find the switch part?

Thank you!!

Thank you.

This was helpful thank you so much 🙏

What of the switches still click and I replaced the fuses and it is still dead? Time for a new microwave? 4.5 yrs old. Light use

So does it mean the micro switch little tap. Is meant to be pressed and stay permanently in.

Thanks bro you save me

What about if it works but not heating

Where do you get the fuse and switched from?

I’m convinced people in my house are opening the microwave door without pushing the stop button first

My microwave is having an intermittent power loss issue. It does seem to do after opening or closing the door, but the power resets within a minute of loosing power. This is still the likely culprit?

Hey does it have diagnostic

If the small button on top of the micro switch does go in and out does that mean it’s still good?

How do you turn off the beep?

Best drinking game ever .. Whenever you say um we drink .......but other then that good info

Were you getting an error code? I'm getting F4

Sounds like Dongman gave you the shaft.

I replaced both fuses but after 5 min they blew again i was able to troubleshoot it did turn on but not heating.

My microwave stopped working. It started when the base kept turning & wouldn't stop until it stopped working entirely. Do you think your proposed soln would work for my GE Profile as well? Its about 4 yrs old.

Mines doesn’t stop heating how would I fix that?

My son's GE microwave in one of his rentals died after about 6 months of use. Tech coming out tomorrow for warranty repair. Will never buy a GE product again, although this was to replace a Samsung microwave, which also dies early (would randomly decide not to heat the food).

I have the same microwave. It was just installed but doesn’t heat the food. It powers on fine and goes through the countdown etc but it won’t heat. Any ideas? it’s brand new just been sitting in a box for several months until we could get it installed. Thanks!

Link micro switch? Please?

What’s the model number of your microwave?

Unfortunately you are right, Consumer electronics and consumer appliance companies that build things by the thousands cut corners and use inferior parts when building their devices as they only care that it makes it past the 1 year warranty. If I was an engineer, I would be pissed if a company downgraded what I spec'd out to save a few cents in production costs! Anyways, the DongMan switches they use in GE microwaves are a good example of an inferior product. Dongman is NOT a well known or reputable brand of switches, therefore why would you use the same thing when replacing it? 3rd party sellers on Amazon are gonna sell you the same crap so you can keep spending more money and purchasing the same junk when it goes bad again! Omron and Honeywell make these switches in the same physical dimensions and ratings, but are a much more reputable brand and have a higher MTBF. About $3 or less for these switches from a reputable electronics supplier and I get the fuses locally for $0.20 each!

Since my GE microwave is "running" and the turntable is turning, the micro switch is not my problem. GREAT. I was told that there is a part that fails,but, the machine continues to seem to be operational, but food does not get hot.

The switch wiggles, but can't pull out help

microwave will not cut off, keeps running when the door is close. GE Model# JVM316ORF6SS

My microwave shut off after 3 seconds then the time defaults to factory and have to set time again. So I set the time and start the microwave and again died after 3 seconds and clock resets. Every time

I don’t understand what problem your fixing. My GE micro is working however it’s not cooking anything and it’s making a noise

My G.e will turn on. But won’t heat up? What could be my problem? Thank u

Home Depot stocks the fuse.

HOOKS STICKING OUT THE DOOR IS A DUMB IDEA! I assume the designer had a warped sense of humor and enjoyed thinking of how many people, removing scalding liquid from the oven, will be splattered when the vessel catches on the hooks.

There are no screws on the top of my GE Microwave.

Where do we get the part?????

Once again, NOT THE PROB. all of those have been replaced. Everything works except the convection and blower. Why no troubleshoot

Tow year old GE and ours quit working. JUNK. Will never purchase another g.e. product again. Best to go with LG.

Mine shit off after running for 2 hours with a burning smell strong burning smell

😂❤

I had 3 of those exact models...same problem every time. Never will buy those.
