Question about GE JKP85 Electric Double Oven

2 Answers

No heat or rotate

Control panel operates normally. Timer counts down, fan turns on, oven light on. The turntable doesn't rotate and the microwave doesn't heat. Symptoms came on simultaneously. Perhaps not a coincidence, it occurred after popping two bags of microwave popcorn (possible low load problem?). I've already opened it up (yes, I read and adhered to all microwave maintenance safety guidelines). I checked all the connections and the only fuse I could see (20 amp, checked good). Put it back together and still no workee.

    I guess door switches are the most common cause of microwave trouble. It works fine now after swapping out the door sensor switch. Cost less than $30. Thanks Bigg T.

Hi, I have the same problem, no heat and no rotate.

How can I check the door switches, how can I determine it is good or bad.

Do I need to open that front panel on the right hand side to check the in side.

Thanks a lot.
Wendy

Error E7 : F1 GMC275PDs07. Microwave works normally but will not heat. Magnetron changed out and still will not heat.
If your microwave is a 220 then reset the breaker by turning it off for 10 seconds and then back on. Then check it. Since you replaced the magnetron, the signal to the mag is interrupted. Did you replace the control panel? If so, then look to see if it is wired back in order. Does the fan operate when you open and close door? If not, then check door switch.

Magnetron fan runs all the time
The timer that runs the mag is stuck. Unplug fan for 30 seconds and check it out. If not fixed, then look at replacing if microwave is older 7-8 years old.

May be one of the components in the High Voltage circuit has failed...Usually there is a relay or semiconductor switching device that turns on a tube called a magnetron..this magnetron is what heats the food...any one of the components in these circuits could have failed...I would have a repairman look at it to see if would even be worth it to get it fixed.

There is no heat coming from the microwave part of the oven, although the grill, convection oven, motor, light and fan all work. The 8 amp fuse on the board where the mains cable enters the oven has blown....
Hello, If everything comes on when it is started, like the light in the cavity and the fan (which one can hear running), and the timer counts down but it doesn't heat, the problem is probably isolated to the high voltage section of the oven.the magnetron i guess is kind of faulty and this is the most expensive part in a microwave oven.
If the display is on and the oven won't come on and run, there may be a problem in the door interlock system or the thermal protection system.
wish yo good luck,

take care.

Electric oven will not switch on. No heat, no fan. There is a timer display that is counting up and has the word AUTO showing. The gas hob works normally. How can I turn the cooker on?
Hi. You probably have to switch the oven onto manual control. Auto would turn oven on at a preset time. Is there a button with a hand symbol on it? This might be manual. Timer should show clock when in normal manual operation.

Sharp MW won't shut off
Sounds like it needs a new electronic board or PCB. Although I would consider a new microwave as your microwave is getting on in age and can be a danger to health or dangerous if something blows up.

Microwave oven stopped working
This is most common in over the range microwaves. Cooking grease migrates into the door switches, resulting in the symptoms you list. Replace the door primary and secondary interlock switches and you should be cooking again. NOTE: be careful not to touch other wires! Even with the unit disconnected from power, if you happen to have a bad bleeder resister in the high voltage capacitor you can still get a nasty zap !

Wont' heat in broil or bake
check incoming electric first, pull it out and gain access to main wire terminal, With multimeter set to at least 250v AC , check your power across the wiring as such. black to white (110v), red to white(110v) and then black to red 230v. if that ok ok turn, then start ckin elements for continuty also there might be a thermostat( usually an 1 in. round component with 2 wires located right inbetween the elements that has gone bad, will show no continuity. ck that before electronic control the fact that its clickin sounds like the relays are workin properly
