GE JES1657SMSS Countertop Microwave

Model # JES1657SMSS

Countertop microwaves are cheaper to replace than most built-in appliances, so repair decisions are usually decided by the part price. A door latch or a turntable motor can be worth fitting; a magnetron generally is not on a unit of this class.

Regardless of the fault, the capacitor inside can hold a dangerous charge after the microwave is unplugged. Owners should not open the cabinet. If the microwave is dead, check the outlet with another appliance first, since a tripped GFCI or a dead socket is a common and free explanation.

FAQ

GE JES1657SMSS Countertop Microwave FAQ

For small parts, sometimes. For a magnetron or transformer, replacement is usually the sensible option on this class of unit.

Only the outside: test the outlet with another appliance and check the breaker or GFCI. Do not open the cabinet, because the capacitor can hold a lethal charge.
