I repair my ge microwave oven model # JVM1740DM1WW with no power for a busted fuse and thermostat but after the repair when i plug it the vent blower start running and wont stop until i unplug the microwave again. Any solution for this? Thanks
I had the same problem with the fan not wanting to shut off after the repair. Once I set the clock though I was able to push the button to shut the fan off. So try setting your clock first and see if that helps.
This didn't work for me.

You can fix it without the aid of a repairman. Simply unplug the microwave and remove the outer casing. There should be a few screws around the bottom edge and back panel. Once you have the unit open, look for where the power cord comes in. There should be a circuit board with a fuse mounted to it. This is your input line filter. The fuse should be a 20 amp appliance fuse that you can pick up at any hardware store (Lowe's and Home Depot both carry them). DO NOT op test with the outer casing removed. Potentials of about 14,000 volts are present in the high voltage network of a microwave oven. Close the unit up BEFORE you power it back up. Let me know if this helps.

Update: I took it back. After speaking to GE, they said that's just how it is, there is no way to silence or quiet it. I took it back and bought an LG. I love it!

That model number is not quite right. I'm going to assume it's JVM1740DMBB01.
(If that's not right, please check the tag inside the oven & reply back)
The membrane keypad is not
available as a separate part, so you would have to order the control
panel frame which comes with a new keypad.
In this case, you simply
move your circuit board into the new frame.
The part number you need is WB07X11040 and you can find
helpful exploded view diagrams and order this part here for $107.00 (compared to $164.75 from GE!)
At
our Web site, we have a video
available showing how to remove a typical
over the range control panel assembly in under 5 minutes.
Feel free to contact me directly (and please remind me of your
full model number from the tag on the unit) for more information & help.

SOURCE: WHat part number for this GW Microwave oven thermostat?
There
should be a "mini-manual" (tech sheet) hidden inside the unit
behind the
control panel or hidden on the left side behind the grille, which is
very helpful when troubleshooting, testing, and locating components.
It will tell you where each one is located and what it's called, and should have the part numbers.
Three of them should read normally closed and one should read open.
You can find
helpful exploded view diagrams and order parts by entering your full
model number from the tag on the oven here.
If you still need help, let us know.
