Hi, have a Spacemaker model JVM1631BJ 03 - 2-3 yrs old (came new w/the home)...
Makes an awfully loud noise when we use it, but it still cooks fine... thoughts? Do I need a new one? Seeing the cost of having a repair, might just buy new.
Thanks!
Well, it's tough to say more surely without hearing it, etc.
I'd say to use it (and always stay close to it when you do) until and unless some other symptoms occur.
And this is not a cop out - sometimes watchful waiting is called for.
It's always recommended that you never leave a running microwave unattended, but in this case even more so.
Be especially aware if either of the fans quits or if any odd smells occur.

I'd say vent grille... the sound starts 2 seconds into the cook time, and continues throughout.
Again, the food cooks fine, so we've been rolling with it. This has probably been happening for 3 months or so.
Thank you very much for any direction you can provide!!

Where does the noise seem to come from?
Behind the control panel or the middle of the vent grille?
