• Reviews around fuse (1.35 of 5)

    GE JVM3160RFSS 30" Over-the-Range Microwave Oven in Stainless Steel

    • Fuse blew again
    • First one of older model kept blowing its fuse after 2 years
    • When you open the door it twists slightly which ultimately blows the fuse
    • Probably blew its internal fuse
    • After 15 months, it started blowing the internal fuse every few days
    • The microwave blew its own fuse
    • After only 7 months of use, the door switch arced and blew the fuse and toasted the control board
    • In our case though, this microwave kept burning out fuses almost immediately after the warranty was up
    • Replaced the fuse, and 1 week later it blew again, probably indicating a bad component...not worth further troubleshooting.
    • One 1/2 years in, the internal fuse blew.
    • Replaced the fuse and both worked again for a few days.
    • This microwave kept blowing our fuse in our electrical box
    • The jvm3160 series has a known defect in the door interlock electrical system that blows the unit fuse if the door is opened while the mw oven is operating
    • At first the door switch would break the fuse.
    • On high u definitely hear it but not deafening, lower levels still work & sound is barely noticeable (if at all).
