A:AnswerHi Darlene - We certainly appreciate your loyalty! All 30" over-the-range microwaves are approximately the same width, and are designed to fit into a 30" wide cabinet opening. Therefore, any of our 30" over-the-range models will work as a replacement for an existing 30" over-the-range model. NOTE: 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. Models with similar features: GE® 1.6 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave Oven JVM3160DFBB; GE® 1.7 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave Oven JVM6172DKBB. Keep in touch! Sue

A:AnswerHi David - Yes, the microwaves have the same dimensions. When you get your new model, you will notice an extra number on the rating plate. When the model is manufactured, these extra letters/numbers are placed on the appliance rating plate and product registration card. These letters/numbers are used to identify manufacturing specific data when the appliance is made. Should service or parts be needed, these are used as identifiers for the specific appliance. We certainly appreciate your loyalty! Sue

A:AnswerHi - All 30" over-the-range microwaves are approximately the same width, and are designed to fit into a 30" wide cabinet opening. Therefore, any of our 30" over-the-range models will work as a replacement for an existing 30" over-the-range model. The height and depth may vary slightly. This should not be an issue unless you have tile on the wall under the microwave. Model JVM3160RFSS is 15-3/4"H in the front and 16 1/2"H in the rear.

A:AnswerHi Linda - The mounting brackets are not exactly the same. 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 certainly appreciate your loyalty! Sue
A:AnswerI believe there is a fuse. You have to take off the front of the microwave. make sure you unpause the microwave and discharged the energy from the fuse before trying to touch it. I found information on YouTube
A:AnswerHi Joe - The mounting plate is exactly the size of the microwave, so the width is the overall width (29 7/8") and the height is the "rear" dimension height (16 1/2").

A:AnswerHi Herb - Model is JVM3160RFSS 29 7/8" wide. All 30" over-the-range microwaves are approximately the same width, and are designed to fit into a 30" wide cabinet opening. We no longer offer a 36" wide over-the-range model.

If available, the filler kit will be listed in the product specifications. This model is not compatible with a 36" filler kit. GE® 1.7 Cu. Ft. Over-the-Range Microwave Oven JVM6172SKSS is compatible with Optional 36" Side Filler Panel Kit JX36CSS (sold separately). Keep in touch at GEAppliances.com - Sue
