Hi,
I have a wall built-in GE Microwave and Oven combo. I read from the label, its model number is JTP86B0F2BB. I could not find anywhee on the web with such model . However, I ran cross a web page with only one owner has it for sale and it is the exact same number of years as mine. The closet model I could find was JTP86BF2BB (without the zero after the “B”). Do they have any parts out there for the one I am having?
The problem I had was that everything still works fine except the paint and metal material from the ceiling (inner top) of the Microwave peeled (torn) off and showed some rust. I went to the stores (Sears/GE) and see if I can replace the Microwave alone but was out of luck as they sell only in combo and they don’t have the model I currently own. Is there some way I can fix the ceiling (inner top) by replacing the part?
I have been using all kinds of Microwaves for almost 30 years but this is the first time I saw with the inner top of the microwave peeled (torn) off and rusted:eek:
Hello Gene,
Thank you for your advice. Unfortunately, the surface was torn (yes, I meant torn) like you pour water down the snow and you see it melt. I don’t really know how it happened. This is the first time I saw it happen in 30 years using several brands/kinds of microwaves. Can I just order some kind of part (panel) and replace it? I don’t really know if they have any by looking at all parts in the breakdown diagram you pointed out. I took a look at the Microwave body parts diagram and I saw what it is called Assembly Cavity, part number : AP2037010, number 461 in the diagram (the whole unit) and it is so expensive (some site has it for $870). What is your suggestion?
This part (cavity assembly) has been discontinued and is no longer available. Also I believe such old microwave is not worth it. I would buy a simple counter top microwave and keep use the oven until it breaks.

Thanks Gene. I guess I am outa luck then. Do you think they have this model discontinued as well? I am thinking is there a way I can use some other model’s Microwave in conjunction with my existing oven? I know it is kinda stupid question but I hope you don’t mind.
