GE Spacemaker XL 1800 Turntable malfunction?

We have an over the range model manufactured in 2001. In the last 2 months, the turntable seems to be breaking down. It makes quite a bit of noise while attempting to rotate (it doesn't always succeed) and the only way to stop the noise is to turn the turntable off at the control panel. If this is an easy fix, I'll do it in a heartbeat, but with a 5 year old oven, should it be fixed? Should I continue to use the microwave without the turntable function? Or, should I look at a replacement? Any assistance would be most appreciated.

I have a GE Spacemaker XL 1800. The problem is that the turntable doesn't turn anymore. I've tried to turn the "turntable" feature off and then on again, but it still won't turn. I hear the sound it...
If the oven is still heating, but the carousel isn't turning, this problem is commonly attributed to a turntable motor that has worn out and may need to be replaced. The motor is attached to the center plastic piece (called a turntable shaft, turntable ring or coupler) under the middle of the glass tray. The following link explains how to access and replace the motor:

http://www.fixya.com/support/r3555716-replacing_a_turntable_motor_on_a_microwa

This is a very simple repair, that usually is not expensive. The price range will be determined by the model and manufacturer. This repair can also be performed on an over the range model microwave oven WITHOUT uninstalling it.

You can refer to any of the following websites for comparison:

searspartsdirect.com
pcappliancerepair.com
appliancepartspros.com
repairclinic.com

The first three sites listed have helpful exploded view diagrams to assist you with locating and properly identifying the part(s) you may need.

The average price for a motor is about $35 to $45. If your model number is not listed at all the sites, use the part numbers from the Sears site and use them for your search criteria. The model numbers don't always cross reference, but the part numbers do. If you need assistance identifying the correct part number, please post back with your complete MODEL NUMBER and I can assist you. I hope you find this information helpful.


NOTE: Even though the carousel may not be turning, you can still use the microwave while awaiting parts. You will need to physically rotate whatever you are heating about midway through the cook time to ensure even heating. Early model microwave ovens were not equipped with a rotating carousel and this was the common routine.

I had the same problem. You need to replace the turntable motor. I used a local appliance repair shop and they charged $45 for the motor plus $65 labor(a house call). I just checked with searspartsdirect.com and they have the motor(part # WB26X10038) for $22.27. Oh well, at least it works.
