Timer on oven doesn't work, neither does self cleaner. We are moving soon and need to replace to sell house. What is the most economical option for us? Thanks so much!! Not very happy!!:confused:

The timer is no longer available for this model and arcing inside the microwave means serious problems with the cavity surface and, very possible, the magnetron. Gene.

The light bulb is a regular 40 Watt appliance bulb. Here are the break down diagrams and Replacement parts for GE JKP67G*02 | AppliancePartsPros.com Gene.

My oven's taking a long time to heat up and would not bake anything on the bottom so I'm assuming it's the baking element that needs replacing (Model #JKP78G0K4). The unit is almost 20 years old and we would like to use it for another year before replacing the whole thing. Thanks for your help.

If yes, then the problem is a bad control board which is unfortunately no longer available. - The part number for the Bake heating element is AP2031031 Here are the break down diagrams and Replacement parts for GE JKP78G*K4 | AppliancePartsPros.com Gene.
