Brand: GE
Model Number: jvm3160df5cc
Main Symptom: Random stopping
What happens & when: Door is closed

When the door i closed on this microwave, which is about 6 years old, the unit will randomly stop when running. Light comes on, time left on the display panel and no heating… it’s as it someone opened the door. If I open the door and close it, the micowave will resume operating as normal. I’m assuming it’s a dooe switch, but which one is the most likely culprit? Breaker NEVER trips.

Generally on microwaves if you are going to replace one door switch you replace all of them. I’m attaching the tech sheet for this model, it goes over testing and replacing the door switches or interlocks.

Your primary switch is WB24X10204.

Your monitor switch is WB24X10205.

And your secondary switch is WB24X10146.
