Thank you for your post Scott! I manage a ton of properties and worked with www.RangeHoodsFilter.com , they were VERY helpful and gave me discounts with quantity purchases. I order 20 then 800 range filters for our GE models. YOU ARE right, you order by part # and it is like a lottery if you get what you need. Quality, low cost and most important,,,THE FILTERSFIT.
Thanks again for your post! Buyers beware of ordering by just the part #. Measure and call them at 1-888-279-1670. One last thing, they also sell HVAC filters too . Custom sizes for all filters. I am very happy you saved myself a lot of time by your post.

The GE spec sheets for what is the right charcoal filter are incorrect. You will never find the right one. I have this same microwave and had same problem. I called a local appliance company and they gave me Part No. WB06X10359 and when I googled this part it was not the right dimensions. I finally found the perfect solution. Go to www.rangehoodsfilter.com (Filter Factory-TTN Inc.) and they are customing making the filter for me. I spoke to Dave this morning from Filter Facotry and he's making me one with the following dimensions - 5 7/8" x 13 1/4" x 1/4". The cost is $16.95. If this fits I will order more. The more you order, the cost per unit goes down.

You can download your owner's manual here.

For just the charcoal filter, order Part # WB02X10776, which you can order here.

Filler Panel Kits are also available
JX46WH/BL—White/Black
JX40WH—White
JX41—Black

When replacing a 36′ range hood, filler panel kits fill in the additional width to provide a custom built-in appearance.

For installation between cabinets only; not for end-of-cabinet installation. Each kit contains two 3′-wide filler panels. JX81C—Recirculating Charcoal Filter Kit (included with Model JNM1541) Filter kits are used when the microwave oven cannot be vented to the outside.

I don't know how to replace the charcoal filter on my Frigidaire FMV157GC microwave. There's also food between the grate and the glass on the microwave door. Help !

This is billed as the Use & Care Manual for the Frigidaire FMV156DC Microwave Oven:

ftp://ftp.electrolux-na.com/ProdInfo_PDF/Springfield/316495004en.pdf

Not sure it is the correct one but you will find instruction for cleaning the exhaust filters on page 19.

Below is the Use & Care Manual for a model direct from the Frigidaire site:

http://manuals.frigidaire.com/prodinfo_pdf/Springfield/316495057en.pdf

This is more helpful as on page 20 it includes illustrated instructions for removing the charcoal filter to change the oven light. Disconnect from power, remove the ventilation grate at the top to access the charcoal filter, slide back and lift to remove. With the grate removed carry out any required cleaning.

Wrong Grease Filter for Sharp R-1870 Microwave

I also have a Sharp over the Range Microwave oven that requires a charcoal filter. But my diagram shows that the charcoal filter goes behind the slotted panel at the top of the microwave. To reach the filter, you must remove a screw on the top edge of the microwave. This allows the panel to come off. Your charcoal filter goes there. Since your oven is new, you do not need to change this filter yet because it's not dirty. I would save it for future use.
According to my book, there are two kinds of filters with this oven. The charcoal filter is the one behind the front panel. The Grease filters ARE the two metal mesh ones. They can be cleaned with hot soapy water, or I put mine in the dishwasher.

When opening the door a venting sound immediately starts up.

The charcoal filter needs to be changed every 6-12 months, or sooner if it gets clogged.

You can download GE owner's manuals and installation instructions here.

You can find helpful exploded view diagrams and order parts (including charcoal filters) by entering your full model number from the tag on the oven here.
