Rank: Member Groups: Registered Joined: 2/19/2012(UTC) Posts: 3		I have a GE Profile Spaemaker microwave model number JVM1660WB01. This is a over the range model with a vent fan built in. Is the magnetron replaceable? I researched the magnetron and it appears several companies will not sell you the part unless their technician comes out and does the work. The other day smelled a burning smell. I partially removed some of the pannels and could see the connector on the magnetron is black. What parts would need to be replaced on this microwave and how do I get all the way to it to repair? I've attached a couple of photo's of the connector and the unit. Any thoughts on the parts I would need? kauf974 attached the following image(s):
