Look for an envelope with the tech sheets behind the top grille and post it. Here are the break down diagrams for the GE microwave Model JVM1860WD001 Gene.

As well as how to replace it since this seems to be the issue? Thanks in advance

Find C1 written on the printer circuit board. You will see the size and the specs 220uf 50 volt written on the side. Using a soldering iron, heat each connection to pop each off the board. Put a new one in the same holes - make sure you get - & + wires in right holes - and re-solder.

I got double-lucky and found an electronics distribution center in Springfield, OH (just a bit up the road). In a few hours I had the new cap installed and the microwave works great again!
