A: There is a known issue with this model number jvm3160..... microwave blowing door switches and tripping the breaker when door is open and/or closed. the microwave door was manufactured incorrectly which according to the manufacture causes this issue to occur. According to the manufacture, the repair is to replace the entire door assembly, the door switches, and the switch holder. The repair cost more than buying a new microwave. And we have seen it on microwaves from three years old and newer some being one and a half years old. We have tried just replacing the door switches, didn’t work. We have tried replacing the door switches and the switch holder, didn’t work. Best bet is just to buy a new microwave and we advise buying a five year extended warranty with it. Keep in mind that about 8 to 9 years ago or so GE appliance division was bought out by HAIER appliances. All appliances, especially microwaves, even the more expensive ones, are all made with cheaper parts nowadays. So getting five years of usage out of any appliance is considered normal. I would advise to get a 5 year extended warranty with any appliances you by now. so at least your appliance will be covered for five years. Stay far away from Samsung and LG appliances. You will thank me later.
Q: Can the vent fan exhaust to the exterior, or does it exhaust into the room?
A: Hello Inquirer - this is Nancy at GE Appliances and we are happy to help you. This microwave is ready to be installed as exhausting outside through the top of the unit. However, you can change the venting to be internally vented or recirculating. Instructions for changing the venting can be found in the Owner's Manual. We hope this helps! Thanks for checking with us!
A: We had a 10 year old GE microwave and this used the same mounting brackets, it just went right in.
A: Nick, I just bought model JVM6175SKSS to replace my old GE (that was at least 10 years old) and it was a breeze to install with the same bracket and hole location for the plug. All the settings pretty much the same too. Recommend
Q: Hi, what are the models that will replace GE JVM1740SM1SS with same specs and bracket? Thanks
A: Hi Rob- All 30" over-the-range microwaves are approximately the same width, and are designed to fit into a 30" wide cabinet opening. Each microwave comes with the mounting hardware (mounting bracket, screws, exhaust adapter), top and rear templates, and installation instructions. When replacing an over-the-range microwave, the mounting bracket included with the new microwave should be used since the mounting bracket is specific to each model. The new screws, bolts, and exhaust adapter should also be used. We suggest models GE® 1.7 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave Oven JVM6172SKSS and GE® 1.7 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Sensor Microwave Oven JVM6175SKSS. Sensor cooking controls sense the humidity (steam) from foods cooking and automatically adjusts time and power for best cooking results. We certainly appreciate your loyalty! SUE@GEA

Convection Over-the-Range Microwave Oven PVM9179SKSS. All 30" over-the-range microwaves are approximately the same width, and are designed to fit into a 30" wide cabinet opening. Each microwave comes with the mounting hardware (mounting bracket, screws, exhaust adapter), top and rear templates, and installation instructions needed to make installation a simple process. This makes choosing a replacement microwave easy. When replacing an over-the-range microwave, the mounting bracket included with the new microwave should be used since the mounting bracket is specific to each model.

GE microwave over the stove model
The microwave is easy to use. The model has the sensory detection that helps you reheat or cook the food properly. Installation was easy because the store had the technicians come out and install it. The installers arrived on the day and time they were supposed to. The installers were friendly and knew what they were doing. They cleaned up after the installation and went down their way. The microwave has been installed for a few weeks now and is working fine. We are happy with the purchase.

Good looking appliance
I bought this same microwave in 2018 after I flooded in Harvey. Use it a few times a month. When storms hit Houston April 2024, power went on & off a few times & the microwave I had blitzed. Turned off & on the breaker & it got a little better - let me turn on the fan & stove light - but that was it. Next time electricity blinked it went out & would not come back so I bought this one. I have since read that it is very likely the fuse SO if you have a problem, start there. (I couldn't take it down myself & put it back so financially made more sense to get a new one &I donated the old one & hope it will be useful to someone.) Looks great with the matching refrigerator & stove out of the same line.

So far so good.
We first purchased this microwave in December of 2022, but had to replace it (with the same model) because it was not working properly. The interior fan never came on a few times, causing excessive condensation, and the inside started to rust/chip at the back seam. Like others, I also noticed the door is significantly lighter in weight. Within less than a month of purchase, the door handle was chipped. I find this disappointing because we make an effort to take good care of our appliances, and our prior microwave lasted many, many years. Since we replaced this G.E. model 4 months ago (with the same model), all has been good so far. It is a pretty all-white model. Hoping for the best!
