My GE microwave/convection shuts off after 1-2 seconds. You also hear a popping sound just before it shuts down. I need to unplug the unit to restore power but does the same exact thing.

Check the internal fuse. Unplug it, unscrew and take off the cover, the fuse should be easily found in the back by the power cord. It looks like a regular fuse but is white instead of clear glass because microwave fuses are special. You'll have to measure it with a meter as a result and be sure to replace it with the same kind. (try finding them at radio shack) Hopefully there isn't something more serious also.

This
is a problem in one of the damper-related components, either the switch
or motor or the damper door may be binding.
The
damper is a door inside that opens or closes depending on cooking mode.
If the controller senses that the door is not in the right position, it
will shut down the cook cycle.
Sharp models stop after
59 seconds.
See the attached sample
drawing for a typical damper assembly.
We have the applicable
service manuals for these models and have uploaded it to our site here and here to help you.
If a switch is all you
need, we offer a universal type for only $5 postpaid which you can
order here.

Here is a link to PartSelect.com, I have used them for my microwave repairs in the past and they usually ship the items fast.
I have put in your Model number, but the closest that I could find was JVM1190BY003. You can look at the picture and determine if the parts look the same and the picture will show you that you will have to take the entire door apart, (You may already know that).
