see this causes and fix it. God bless you ough
the carousel is usually driven by a small motor that's unrelated to the
heating function of the microwave, the microwave cabinet needs to be
opened to repair it. So we recommend that you seek the assistance of a
qualified appliance repair technician. Inspect the plastic drive
coupling that the tray sits on, as well as the ring-and-roller assembly,
to make sure that they're working properly
It sounds like one of the door switches has become defective, each must be disconnected on the one side and tested with a digital meter using the ohms scale.
9 times out of 10 this is usually this is a bad magnetron, the other time is sometimes a bad high voltage diode. See components section.Q - My microwave is running and sounds like it is working but will not heat up anything. A - Many thing can do this but, common things are....loose high voltage wire.....poor solder joint on board.....magnetron.....power relay.....
Q - The microwave display counts down and the inside light is on, but nothing is heating and the fan is not running. A - This most commonly is abad door switch, other possible problems are a faulty relay or solder joint on the power module, but a bad door switch is most common. thanks.
I have a GE Profile Spacemaker model JVM3670WF001, purchased I think in 2003. Pop sound, no Heat. Light goes on, carousel goes around, Repair or new microwave

You can receive a serious electrical shock from the components inside
your microwave oven--even when it's unplugged. Only a qualified
appliance repair technician should perform any repair.
